"Where's Potato? Launches New Prop Hunt Game on Android"

By ZoeApr 07,2025

The prop hunt genre has been gaining significant traction lately, captivating players with its unique blend of hide-and-seek gameplay set in cluttered environments. The latest addition to this genre, "Where's Potato?" by developer gamesbynav, is now available on Android and aims to ride this wave of popularity.

In "Where's Potato?", players can take on the role of either the potato or the seekers. The potato's objective is to evade capture by blending into the surroundings of a typical suburban home. However, the potato isn't entirely helpless; by consuming hot chili peppers, it can gain the ability to attack and burn seekers. Successfully burning three seekers results in a win for the potato.

Visually, "Where's Potato?" may not be groundbreaking, presenting a straightforward 3D environment. Yet, considering it's a solo project from a relatively new developer, it's a commendable effort. However, the game might struggle to stand out in the crowded prop hunt genre, which thrives primarily on social gaming platforms like Minecraft or as a sub-mode within other games. As a standalone download, "Where's Potato?" might find it challenging to capture a broad audience.

Creating a functional multiplayer game is no small feat, and it's an achievement that even some more seasoned developers find difficult. This makes me eager to see what gamesbynav will develop next.
