The '''Hidden''', also known as the '''Super Spy Mod''', is a custom game mode created by [http://steamcommunity.com/id/m2828 M28].
 
 
== Current version Gameplay ==
 
* The Hidden uses [[Arena]] rules, but pits a lone BLU [[Spy]] (as the titular "Hidden") against everyone else on the server.
 
* The lone Spy possesses some special abilities, such as invulnerability to afterburn and bleeding, slightly increased health, the ability to leap, cling to walls, infinite invisibility and an ability to throw a cluster bomb.
 
* Visible stats for the Hidden are: HP, Stamina, Cluster Bomb, Hunger. The red team only sees his HP.
 
* The "Hidden" is cloaked at all times, apart from when attacking, leaping, getting attacked or throwing his cluster bomb.
 
* There is also a hunger meter. If the Hidden doesn't kill anyone within a certain time period, he dies of starvation. If the hidden kills someone with his knife but not as a backstab, the hidden recovers a small portion of health that changes based on the class of the victim.
 
* Players killed by a backstab gib/explode. Players killed with a knife but not as a backstab, disintegrate.
 
* The "Hidden" has the ability to "dash" ([[List of default keys|default key]]: {{Key|MOUSE2}}), which makes the "Hidden" leap; however, this will cause the "Hidden" to uncloak. If the button is still held when the Hidden hits a wall, he clings onto the wall. Each leap and clinging to a wall drain his stamina.
 
* Players on the opposing team of the Spy have a green outline similar to that used by the [[coaching]] system, and akin to the one used in the original mod.
 
* Razorback is disabled by default.
 
* Red players can turn into ghosts after death - if enabled on the server.
 
* Heavies and Pyros have their primary weapons removed by default.
 
* The Hidden takes no fall damage by default.
 
* The Hidden can throw a cluster bomb which splits into small bombs that fly into random directions and explode. They deal small amount of damage and a big knockback. The hidden gets hurt by his bombs by default.
 
* The next Hidden is chosen based on who deals the most damage to him if he gets killed. In any other case the Hidden is chosen randomly.
