Before starting the game Hide with Gangsters, you must decide which side you will be on: the side of Law and Order, or the opposite. That is, you will either be a policeman or a gangster. As a policeman, you must catch thieves, moving through labyrinths and collecting money along the way. If you choose an illegal lifestyle, you will become a thief and you will have to hide from the policeman who will go hunting. Time is limited, so the policeman must have time to catch all the criminals, and the gangster will have to skillfully hide so as not to get noticed by the servant of the law. Essentially, the game Hide with Gangsters is hide and seek.
