A strange little side quest
The rules may be simple on screen, but the backstory around Hide N Seek 3D is anything but tiny. Pong was field-tested in California bars in 1972 and helped launch the modern arcade-game era. That old idea kept changing rather than disappearing. In 1958, Tennis for Two used an analog computer and an oscilloscope to turn simple physics into a playable tennis-like demonstration. So a round of Hide N Seek 3D is not just a quick distraction; it is a tiny stop on a much longer video-game history timeline.
