Hide the Cat vs HIDE THE CAT: Which Game Is Which?
Two Roblox games share the name: the active 2026 game by RogerThat1337's group and the older 8.4M-visit Piriyo game. Side-by-side official comparison by place ID, the 7-map list attributed to its real game, and how to tell which one you are playing.
Two different Roblox games share the name “Hide the Cat” with the same premise: hide a cat from your landlord. The older one by group “Piriyo” has 8.4 million lifetime visits and dominates search results — but it recorded zero concurrent players on our check. The newer one by RogerThat1337's group is the one currently growing fast. This page uses official Roblox API data for both, checked 2026-10-31, and identifies each game by creator plus place ID — never by name alone.

About “updated” stamps — shown both ways
The API's updated field deserves its own note because it keeps moving for both games. The active game read 2026-10-02 on our first two re-checks and 2026-10-20 on the latest two (2026-10-23 and 2026-10-31 — no fourth move in that window) — the 2026-10-20 update also added a [🎃] prefix to its store-page name — and the shop corroborates real changes (Hero Bundle added 2026-09-30 and pulled off sale by 2026-10-23, Anime Bundle pulled earlier — documented with dates). The Piriyo game's stamp moved to 2026-10-20 after reading 2026-09-28 (and before that 2026-05-14); no patch notes or announcement explains any of its moves, and its player count stayed at zero throughout, so whether those stamps reflect content updates or metadata edits is the developer's to say — the stamp alone doesn't prove new content. We print all readings rather than pick the convenient one.
Which one is “winning”? (a dated snapshot, not a verdict)
On the visits column the Piriyo game still leads (8.47M lifetime, accumulated since October 2025), but every live signal favors the 2026 game: 391 playing versus 0; visits grew from 638,656 to 5,336,350 to 8,640,142 to 9,353,957 across our four checks (2026-09-21, 2026-10-03, 2026-10-23, 2026-10-31); and its vote ratio reads 90.5% against 72.7%. Lifetime totals measure history; concurrent players, past-day badge awards (25,528 Welcome! badges in the last day, cooled from the early-October peak of 216,547), and vote momentum measure the present. Both games keep their full numbers above so you can weigh them yourself.
The “7 maps” list belongs to the Piriyo game
Map names circulating in walkthroughs — House, Farm, Snow House, Grandma's House, Modern House, School, Apartment — are chapter labels from a walkthrough of the Piriyo game (NoobPlayer, published 2026-05-15, listed in the video's own description; checked 2026-09-21). They are the only public map list in this niche, and they belong to the twin — not to the active game. Quoting them for the 2026 game is the single most common mix-up in this niche.
The active game's official description says you “explore new rooms” without naming them — its room list is unstated (checked 2026-10-31).
Which one am I playing?
- The URL check (fastest): the number after
/games/in the address bar is the place ID — 100614359881926 means the active game this wiki covers; 98840347759240 means the Piriyo game. - You're playing the active game if: you started recently (Summer 2026 or later), your server holds up to 20 players, your avatar morphs to an R15 rig, you earn the cats-hidden ladder (5/10/15/20/25 Cats badges), and there are no named maps. This wiki covers that game.
- You're playing the Piriyo twin if: you picked from 7 named maps (House, Farm, Snow House, Grandma's House, Modern House, School, Apartment), your server caps at 14, or you arrived from an older video.
Two more ways to verify identity yourself
- Badge records: the badges API for either universe labels every award with its
awardingUniversename and root place ID — a 5 Cats badge belongs to universe 10762798338 (the active game), never to the twin. If a profile shows the Cats ladder, the person played the 2026 game. - Group game lists: the group games API for 321281846 is a stable identity anchor you can check in one request. As of our 2026-10-31 check it lists five entries: the active game, its [TESTING] place, Feed the Cat, a [TESTING] Feed the Cat place, and — new since 2026-10-24 — the group's third public game, Cat Bomb Tag 🐱💣. Piriyo's group list is separate. A game's group membership is an identity anchor search engines ignore.
Both endpoints are listed with direct locators on Sources.
Which-game FAQ
Which game is the original?
By creation date, Piriyo's: 2025-10-03 versus 2026-08-26 for the active game (checked 2026-10-31). Age and activity are different questions, though — see the table above.
Which one should I play?
That's your call; this page documents, not recommends. What the record shows on 2026-10-31: the 2026 game has the live population (391 playing) and the higher vote ratio (90.5%); the Piriyo game has the longer history and the named maps.
Are the two games related?
No public record connects them — different groups, different avatar rigs, different server sizes. The shared name and premise are the only overlap in evidence.
Why does search show the Piriyo game first?
Its 8.4M lifetime visits and older age give search engines more history to rank. This page exists so a place ID — not a name — settles which game you're reading about.
Does this wiki cover the Piriyo game too?
Only this disambiguation: the tables, the 7-map attribution, and the identification checks. The guide pages cover the active 2026 game exclusively.
