Murder Mystery 2 Secret Rooms Guide: How to Build Hidden Hide and Seek Spots

Part 1: The Setup – What You Need

Requirements

Requirement

Details

Game Mode

Custom Hide and Seek (with full building tools enabled)

Tool

Build Tools (allows map modification during hiding phase)

Timing

Must build during the hiding countdown before seekers start

Objective

Create hidden spaces that appear part of the map

The Strategy

The goal isn't just to hide—it's to create hiding spots that seem like they've always been there. Done right, the seeker will assume your secret room is just part of the map's normal geometry.


Part 2: Map 1 – The Pool Room

The Spot: Under the Pool

This map features a pool area. By manipulating the water and floor, you can create a hidden room directly beneath it.

Step-by-Step Build

Step

Action

1

Select the water part and move it to the side

2

Remove the second water part to empty the pool area

3

Size down a section to create an entryway

4

If too short, squeeze down the area to make it tall enough

5

Create a floor below so you don't fall through the sky

6

Turn off collisions on the entrance so you can fall through

7

Repair any visible gaps to hide your work

8

Restore the water to normal appearance

End Result

The pool looks completely normal from above. But by walking through a specific spot, you drop into a hidden room underneath. The seeker can swim around the pool all day and never find you—unless they accidentally step on the exact spot and fall through.

Pro Tip: When hiding, the seeker's odds of finding the exact pixel-perfect entrance are incredibly low. In the example above, the seeker actually almost walked right over the entrance.


Part 3: Map 2 – The Bank

The Spot: Behind the Office Wall

This map has a bank teller area with offices. The secret room is created by building through a painting on the wall.

Step-by-Step Build

Step

Action

1

Find a random office room with a thick wall

2

Scale down the wall to create a visible gap

3

Place flooring so you can stand in the gap

4

Use a painting as the entrance

5

Build the wall around it so the gap is behind the painting

6

Turn collisions off on the entrance

The Result

Walk into the office, look at the map, jump through the painting, and you're in a hidden room behind the wall. The seeker can walk right past the office and never know you're inches away.

Epic Moment

In the example, the seeker actually stood right in front of the painting and couldn't figure out how you got inside. They even asked, "How are you in there? That's a secret. What's the secret entrance?" — completely unaware you just jumped through the wall.

Part 4: Map 3 – The Vending Machine Room

The Spot: Under the Vending Machine

This smaller map features vending machines and seating areas. The secret room is created by using a vending machine as both the entrance and the disguise.

Step-by-Step Build

Step

Action

1

Find a vending machine (ideally in a central spot)

2

Create a gap in the floor near the vending machine

3

Copy the floor section and lower it down to create a second floor

4

Move the vending machine to cover the secret spot

5

Turn collisions off on the vending machine

6

Drop through the vending machine into your secret base

The Trap

The vending machine still looks normal—it has food items and appears functional. But when you walk into it, you fall straight through into a hidden underground room. The seeker might even spam their forward button trying to get inside, but they won't know the trick is to walk through the front.

Funny Moment: The seeker in the example actually stood directly in front of the vending machine, said "I'm literally spamming my forward button," and still couldn't figure it out.


Part 5: Map 4 – The Sewer/Vent Area

The Spot: Behind the Boxes

This industrial/warehouse-style map features crates, pallets, and a vent system. The secret room is hidden behind a stack of boxes that looks like part of the scenery.

Step-by-Step Build

Step

Action

1

Find a wall with unreachable vents

2

Turn collisions off on the wall to enter an off-limits area

3

Use wood pallets to jump up to higher areas

4

Create a gap behind some boxes

5

Leave the collisions off so you can walk through

The Deception

The entrance appears to be a solid wall with boxes stacked in front. The seeker might walk right past it, never thinking to walk through the boxes. When they do figure it out, it'll be too late.


Part 6: Advanced Tips & Tricks

Collisions Management

Turn off collisions on your entrance so you can pass through

Keep collisions ON for surrounding objects so they appear solid

This creates the illusion of a normal wall while hiding your secret passage

Timing Is Everything

Build as quickly as possible during the hiding countdown

If the countdown timer is visible on screen, the seeker can see it too

Start building the moment the countdown begins

How to Avoid Detection

Mistake

Fix

Leaving visible gaps

Repair/cover all gaps with wall pieces

Making entrance too obvious

Use common objects (paintings, vending machines) as disguise

Not testing collision

Always test that you can actually enter your secret room

When You Get Caught

In the example, the seeker eventually discovered the trick after several rounds. When they realize what you've done:

Admit it — the prank was worth it

Laugh it off — the seeker cheated first anyway

Offer a rematch — or change maps for the next round
