Heart Hunter
Gameplay Overview
When joining the game, each player is assigned one of two roles: Hunter or Hunted. All participants start with 100 Points.
When there are at least 3 Hunted players online for the first time, the system randomly selects one of them as the Target. Only Hunters can see who became the target. Their mission is to eliminate the chosen player (kill credit applies), while the other Hunted players must protect the Target. The main intrigue lies in the fact that the Hunted themselves don't know which of them is the Target. After the Target is determined, a 3-hour timer begins.
Information Tracking
Above the quick access panel, each player sees their current Points. The command /trigger show_hide_info reveals additional information: your role, Target (if you're Hunted), as well as the coordinates and dimension where the Target is located. The Target's location updates every 5 seconds, so the data may not be entirely accurate.
Victory Conditions
Hunter Victory: If within 3 hours the Target is killed by a Hunter, the game ends immediately, and all Hunters are declared winners.
Hunted Victory: If the Target successfully survives the 3-hour period, the game concludes, and all Hunted players win.
Points and Hearts System
Any player killed by another participant loses 1 Point. At the end of the game, all members of the winning team gain 5 Points, while the losers lose 5 Points. Additionally, the player(s) with the highest points receive a Heart, increasing maximum health. Those with the fewest points lose a Heart but compensate by gaining 1 Point.
Timer Features and Cyclical Nature
The timer counts down only when the Target, Non-Target Hunted, and Hunter are all online simultaneously. After a round concludes, there's a 5-minute cooldown, then roles are redistributed, and the game cycle begins anew.
