About Burg Tag
Burg Tag is a competitive tag game that revolves around fast‑paced chases. Both Hiders and Seekers share a movement toolkit that includes wall kicks, monkey bars, sliding, sprinting and rolling, with power‑ups that can add new ways to move.
The game offers an online PvP mode where captured Hiders join the Seeker side, and a solo Time Trials mode that challenges a player to collect ten bananas on any map as quickly as possible.
01 / THE GUIDE
Movement Toolkit
All participants have access to the same core moves: wall kicks, monkey bars, sliding, sprinting and rolling. The description calls these actions essential for evading opponents and navigating the arena.
Power‑ups can unlock additional movement options during a match, expanding the basic toolkit. Mastering each move and the unlocked options improves a player's ability to stay out of reach.
- Try each movement in a low‑pressure match to learn its timing.
- Watch how power‑ups change the available moves before committing to a chase.

Role Interaction
Each round divides players into Hiders and Seekers. Hiders may stay in a hiding spot or keep moving, using the shared toolkit to escape when a Seeker approaches.
When a Seeker tags a Hider, the Hider joins the Seeker team, increasing the number of pursuers and allowing coordinated cornering or cut‑offs.
- Hiders should observe nearby Seekers before committing to a hide spot.
- Seekers can aim to cut off escape routes rather than chase directly.

Power‑up Effects
Power‑ups appear during matches and are described as unlocking new ways to get around. The exact moves are not listed, but they are tied to movement enhancements.
These items add variety to each chase, encouraging players to adapt their strategy based on which power‑ups they acquire.
- Grab power‑ups when you spot them and plan routes to collect them.
- Test newly unlocked moves immediately to see how they affect escape options.

Time Trials Mode
Time Trials lets a single player run any map solo, aiming to collect ten bananas as fast as possible. This mode originated as an afterthought but grew popular.
The mode provides a clear performance metric separate from the competitive tag matches, focusing on speed and efficient use of the movement toolkit.
- Map out the shortest path to each banana before starting.
- Maintain sprint speed rather than perfecting every trick for a faster run.
