In this context, "seeker" refers to the person who searches for the other players who are hiding in the game of hide-and-seek. The job of the seeker is to find and tag all the other players who are hiding before they can reach a designated "safe zone." Being a good seeker means that the person was able to find the other players quickly and efficiently during the game.

اللاعب الرئيس، العَدَّاد


Explanation:
تختلف قواعد اللعبة من مكان لآخر وحتى بنفس المنطقة يكون لها تنويعات مختلفة، لكن يمكن إجمال مفاهيمها الأساسية كما يلي

يقوم اللاعب الرئيس بمهمة العد، مغمضاً عينيه أو مواجهاً لجدار، بينما يختبأ بقية اللاعبين
بعد انتهاء العد التنازلي، يقوم اللاعب الرئيس، العَدَّاد، بالبحث عن بقية اللاعبين المختبأين
حين اكتشاف اللاعبين يخسرون ويخرجون من اللعبة
يكون الفائز إما اللاعب الرئيس إن تمكن من اكتشاف الجميع أو اللاعب\اللاعبين الذي يحسن الاختباء فلا يكتشف

أعلم هذا لأنني كنت باحثًا جيدًا جدًا في لعبة الغميضة


Explanation:
It's unnecessary to keep the same word root for "seeker" and "seek" in Arabic. So, simply using باحث would be completely correct.
