You vs Homer by dgk enterprises (acid) is an asymmetrical horror game on Roblox built around the Simpsons universe. One player spawns as Homer and hunts down a server full of Bart players across a 175-second round. With over 123.7 million visits, 161,197 upvotes, and 237,100 favorites, it has become one of the most-played hide-and-seek style games on the platform. This guide covers every active code, survival strategies for both sides, game pass analysis, skin recommendations, and advanced tactics to win more rounds in 2026.
You vs Homer is an asymmetrical horror and survival game on Roblox where one player takes the role of Homer Simpson while everyone else plays as Bart. The premise is straightforward: Homer has 175 seconds to find and catch every single Bart on the map. Bart players get a 30-second head start to scatter and hide before Homer is released. If even one Bart survives when the timer runs out, the Bart team wins. Homer only wins by catching every last player.
The game was developed by dgk enterprises, known in the community as acid, and it has exploded in popularity since launch. Over 123.7 million visits, 161,197 upvotes, and 237,100 favorites speak to the kind of replayability that keeps servers packed around the clock. Content creators like ItsFunneh and Chaos Cody TV have featured the game in their videos, pulling in even more players. The Simpsons theme gives it a unique identity compared to other hide-and-seek games on the platform, and the 175-second round structure makes sessions fast enough that you always want one more round.
The asymmetric design creates a natural tension. Playing as Bart is about patience, positioning, and knowing when to stay hidden versus when to relocate. Playing as Homer is about efficiency, map knowledge, and reading player behavior. Both sides require completely different skill sets, which keeps the gameplay fresh regardless of which role you are assigned.
You vs Homer has four active codes as of May 2026. Each code gives you free in-game currency or event items. Codes are case-sensitive, so type them exactly as listed below.
| Code | Reward | Status |
|---|---|---|
| QUIDZ2026 | 1,000 Quidz | Active |
| FREEQUIDZ | 500 Coins | Active |
| LEEEEEPROCHAUN | 300 Clovers | Active |
| BUNNYEGGS2026 | 250 Eggs | Active |
The developer regularly releases new codes around holidays and major updates. Seasonal codes like BUNNYEGGS2026 and LEEEEEPROCHAUN are tied to limited-time events and will likely expire once those events end. We check for new codes frequently and update this table as soon as new ones drop.
The code redemption process in You vs Homer takes about 10 seconds. Here is the exact step-by-step process.
If a code does not work, double-check the spelling and capitalization. If it still fails, the code has likely expired. Some codes are only available for a limited window after release, and the developer does not always announce when they are removed.
Every round in You vs Homer follows the same structure, and understanding each phase is critical to winning consistently on either side.
Role assignment happens at the start of each round. One player is randomly selected as Homer. Everyone else becomes Bart. The X2 Homer Chance game pass doubles your odds of being selected as Homer, but even with the pass, it is still a random selection. In a full server, most rounds you will play as Bart.
The 30-second head start is the most important phase for Bart players. Homer is locked in place while all Barts scatter across the map. These 30 seconds determine the outcome for most players. A Bart who uses the full head start to reach a distant, non-obvious hiding spot with multiple escape routes survives far more often than one who hides near spawn.
The hunt begins when Homer is released. Homer moves faster than Bart and can tag players on contact. Once tagged, a Bart is eliminated from the round. Homer has 175 seconds total (including the 30-second head start phase) to find and catch every Bart. The pressure is entirely on Homer. Missing even one Bart means losing the round.
Endgame gets tense when only 1-2 Barts remain. Homer now knows the remaining players are somewhere on the map but does not know exactly where. Smart Barts relocate during this phase, moving to spots Homer already checked. Less experienced Barts stay frozen in their original hiding spot, which works if the spot is good but fails if Homer is doing systematic sweeps.
Surviving a full round as Bart requires discipline more than anything else. The players who survive most consistently are not the ones with the fanciest moves. They are the ones who pick smart positions, stay patient, and only move when absolutely necessary.
Once you have the basics down, Bart gameplay shifts from raw survival to reading Homer's behavior and exploiting predictable patterns.
Track Homer's patrol path. Most Homer players develop habits. They start at the same corner, sweep in the same direction, and check the same spots in the same order every round. If you play multiple rounds in the same server, you start to notice these patterns. Position yourself in areas that Homer checks late in the rotation. By the time Homer reaches your zone, the timer is already running low.
Use sound cues. Homer's footsteps and movements generate audio. On PC, wearing headphones lets you track Homer's approximate location even when you cannot see them. This awareness lets you decide whether to stay hidden or relocate without needing line-of-sight information.
The Emo Bart 2D skin deserves special attention. This skin is nearly invisible in the right conditions. Its flat 2D profile means it does not stick out from walls or objects the way a 3D character model does. Players using Emo Bart in shadowed map areas report survival rates significantly higher than with any other skin option. If you can afford one skin purchase, make it this one.
Other solid skin choices include any dark-colored variants that reduce your visual profile. Avoid skins with bright colors, glow effects, or large character models. You want to be as close to invisible as possible when Homer scans a room from the doorway.
The final 30 seconds are where discipline pays off. As the round winds down with only a couple of Barts left, Homer becomes increasingly frantic, checking spots quickly and moving aggressively. This is when Homer makes mistakes. Stay calm, resist the urge to run, and let the timer do its work. Many rounds are won by Barts who simply held their position while Homer sprinted past them in a panic.
Playing Homer flips every instinct from the Bart side. Instead of patience and hiding, you need speed, efficiency, and a systematic approach to clearing the map.
Start with the highest-probability zones. When you are released after the 30-second head start, resist the urge to chase the first Bart you see in the distance. Instead, begin sweeping the areas closest to spawn where less experienced Barts tend to hide. These quick early catches reduce the player count fast and give you more time to hunt the remaining, better-hidden players.
Sweep in a pattern, not randomly. The worst thing a Homer can do is wander the map aimlessly. Pick a direction and clear the map systematically, section by section. When you finish one area, move to the adjacent one. This ensures you do not leave large unchecked zones where multiple Barts could be clustering.
Check behind objects and in corners, not just open areas. Barts hide behind walls, inside structures, under overhangs, and in any nook that breaks line of sight. Walk into rooms fully. Look behind doors. Check behind the objects that seem too obvious because many Barts gamble on Homer thinking nobody would hide in an obvious spot.
Corner your prey. When you spot a Bart running, do not chase in a straight line if possible. Cut off their escape routes by angling toward where they are heading rather than where they are. Bart is slower than Homer, so a well-angled pursuit ends in a catch nearly every time. Chasing directly behind a fleeing Bart wastes time if they know the map layout and lead you through obstacles.
High-level Homer play comes down to pattern recognition and time management. You have 145 seconds of active hunting time after the head start ends. That sounds like a lot until you realize you need to find and catch every single player on a map with dozens of hiding spots.
Use pattern recognition across rounds. Players are creatures of habit. If you play multiple rounds in the same server, track where specific players hide. Many Barts return to the same spots or the same general area round after round. Use that information. Check their known hiding zones first in subsequent rounds.
Listen for movement. Nervous Barts fidget. They adjust their position, bump into objects, or start running prematurely when they hear Homer approaching. Train yourself to pause briefly in each area and listen before moving on. A 2-second pause can reveal a hidden player that a quick glance would miss.
Manage your time against remaining players. If you catch 8 out of 10 Barts in the first 90 seconds, you have 55 seconds for the final 2. That is plenty of time for a thorough sweep. But if you spent 120 seconds catching 6 Barts, you have 25 seconds for the remaining 4, and that is almost certainly a loss. Prioritize speed in the early round so you have time budget for the harder finds later.
Double back to cleared areas. Experienced Barts relocate to zones you already searched. Counter this by circling back to previously cleared sections during the final minute. A quick pass through an area you checked 60 seconds ago catches the Barts who thought they were safe to relocate there.
The sweep-and-close technique works well in structured map areas. Start at one end of a building or section and move through it in one direction, checking every possible hiding spot. Once you clear a section, mentally mark it as done and move to the next. This prevents the common mistake of rechecking the same spots repeatedly while leaving entire sections untouched.
You vs Homer uses Quidz as its primary in-game currency. You earn Quidz by completing rounds, with bonus amounts for winning. The VIP game pass doubles all Quidz earnings, making it the fastest way to accumulate currency for skin purchases.
Skins in You vs Homer are not purely cosmetic. While they do not change your stats directly, they significantly affect your visibility. A dark, flat skin like Emo Bart 2D is functionally a gameplay advantage when playing as Bart. Conversely, a bright or large skin makes you easier to spot and harder to hide effectively.
The game features seasonal currencies tied to limited-time events. Eggs and Clovers from the current active codes are examples of event currencies that let you purchase exclusive seasonal items. These items are typically only available during their respective events, making the codes that grant them especially valuable for collectors.
Currency priority for new players: Redeem all four active codes first for 1,000 Quidz, 500 Coins, 300 Clovers, and 250 Eggs. Then focus on earning Quidz through gameplay. Your first purchase should be a competitive skin like Emo Bart 2D if it is available in the shop. After that, buy whatever appeals to you, whether that is more skins for variety, event items for collection, or saving up for premium cosmetics.
The Quidz economy is straightforward. Win more rounds, earn more Quidz. VIP holders earn double, which cuts the grind time for any purchase in half. There are no loot boxes or random elements in the skin shop. You see what each item costs and you buy it when you have enough. That transparency is a welcome change from games that gate cosmetics behind random chance mechanics.
You vs Homer offers two game passes, each targeting a different aspect of the gameplay experience. Here is what you get with each and which one deserves your Robux first.
The VIP pass is the better value for most players. Double Quidz earnings means you unlock skins, items, and seasonal content twice as fast as non-VIP players. Over weeks or months of play, that compounding effect is massive. You also get access to exclusive skins that are locked behind the VIP paywall. These exclusive cosmetics cannot be earned through gameplay alone, making VIP the only way to get them.
If you play You vs Homer regularly, double Quidz adds up fast. A player who earns 200 Quidz per session without VIP earns 400 per session with it. Over 30 sessions, that is the difference between 6,000 and 12,000 Quidz. The extra 6,000 buys multiple premium skins and seasonal items that would otherwise take twice as long to afford.
The X2 Homer Chance pass is a niche purchase for players who specifically want to play as Homer more often. It doubles your selection probability for the Homer role at the start of each round. In a full server, your base chance of being Homer is roughly 1 in 10-15 depending on server size. The pass bumps that to roughly 2 in 10-15, which is a noticeable increase but still far from a guarantee.
This pass is worth it if playing Homer is the main reason you enjoy the game. Some players love the hunter role and find Bart rounds boring. For them, more Homer rounds means more fun, and 120 Robux is a reasonable price for that. But if you enjoy both roles equally, the VIP pass provides better overall value because it affects every single round regardless of your assigned role.
Both game passes require Robux, and premium skins can accelerate your progression significantly. If you want VIP or X2 Homer Chance without spending real money, Earnaldo lets you earn free Robux by completing simple tasks and offers. You can learn how the process works on the How Earnaldo Works page.

If you enjoy the asymmetrical hide-and-seek format of You vs Homer, several other Roblox games offer similar experiences with their own twists. Here are some worth checking out.
Murder Mystery 2 is one of the longest-running deduction and survival games on Roblox. One player is the murderer, one is the sheriff, and everyone else must survive or identify the threat. The social deduction element adds a layer that pure hide-and-seek games lack.
Evade takes the survival concept and cranks up the intensity. Instead of hiding from one player, you are evading AI-controlled nextbots across large maps. The fast-paced nature and cooperative survival mechanics make it a natural complement to You vs Homer's competitive format.
DOORS is a horror-exploration game where you progress through procedurally generated rooms, each with unique threats. The tension of not knowing what is behind the next door shares DNA with the anxiety of hiding from Homer, but in a PvE context.
Murderers VS Sheriffs DUELS combines the role-based gameplay of Murder Mystery 2 with faster-paced combat. If you enjoy the one-versus-many dynamic of being Homer, the murderer role in this game scratches a similar itch with added gunplay mechanics.
You vs Homer runs on every Roblox-supported platform: Windows, MacOS, iOS, Android, Xbox, and PlayStation. Your skins, Quidz balance, game pass purchases, and progression sync across all platforms through your Roblox account. You can play on PC during the day and switch to mobile at night without losing anything.
The game's art style is simple and performance-friendly, which means smooth frame rates on older phones and tablets. Mobile players may find it slightly harder to scan rooms efficiently as Homer due to the smaller screen, but touch controls for Bart gameplay work well since most of your time is spent staying still in a hiding spot.
