Hide and seek is a popular children's game that has been played for centuries in various forms around the world. The basic premise of the game, in which one player hides and the others try to find them, is thought to have originated in ancient civilizations as a way for children to practice skills such as observation, tracking, and stealth.
Scratch, as a programming language and online community, was developed more recently, in the early 21st century. It allows users to create interactive media such as games, animations, and stories using blocks of code. With Scratch, it is possible to create digital versions of hide and seek and other traditional games, giving them a new twist and making them accessible to a wider audience.
In summary, the Scratch hide and seek project I am working on is connected to the long history of hide and seek as a game, but is also an example of how technology and programming can be used to create new and innovative versions of traditional games.

Random numbers can be used in games in a variety of ways to add an element of chance and unpredictability to the gameplay. Some examples of how random numbers can be used in games include:
Random item drops: In games that feature items that can be picked up, random numbers can be used to determine which items will drop and how often. This can add an element of replay ability to the game, as the player never knows what to expect.
Random enemy spawning: Random numbers can be used to spawn enemies at random intervals or in random locations. This can make the game more challenging, as the player never knows where the enemies will appear.
Random level generation: Games that feature procedurally generated levels can use random numbers to create unique and unpredictable levels each time the game is played.
Random events: Random numbers can be used to trigger random events such as weather changes or power-ups that can appear in the game.
Dice Rolling: If a game include a dice or any other similar random element, random numbers can be used to roll a dice, this can be used in games such as board games or card games.
Random terrain: Some games, specially strategy games, the terrain can be randomly generated, this can be done by using random numbers, making the game more challenging.
All of these examples demonstrate how random numbers can add an element of excitement and unpredictability to the gameplay of a game, and how it can be used to create unique experiences for players each time they play.
