Two teams each start with a “hostage” (a teammate without weapons). The objective is to rescue your hostage from the enemy base while preventing the other team from rescuing theirs. This creates a tense balance between offense and defense as teams must split their focus.

Game Details
One player from each team joins the opposite team, unarmed. Each team must then try to rescue their team’s hostage, while preventing the other team’s rescue attempts.
Hostages must be kept moving every minute.
This is a game where any team member can revive themselves every 30 seconds or by their own team while kneeling. However, fallen enemies can be taken as additional hostages.
The team with the most hostages, or rescues their primary hostage wins.
Key game Mechanics
- Primary hostage is unarmed
- Hostages can try to escape when possible.
- When hit, players must kneel or sit and count to 30 slowly. They can self revive after 30 or have a team member rescue them.
- If a player is down, they can be taken as a hostage by the other team.
- If a hostage escapes, they cannot fire their weapon until they reach their team’s spawn area.
- Fleeing hostages can be shot in the legs until they stop running.
Game Rules
- Hostages must keep moving every minute at the most
- Fallen players cannot move (except to move out of the way of incoming fire)
