Well, it does in real life. You can't be sure that the person who's supposed to be it won't develop a malicious streak and just go off and play Monopoly for four hours and everyone falls asleep in their hiding places. And then there's always the danger that if you do find someone, they'll pull out a gun and shoot you.
In general, I find a good way to think of new gametypes is to stick the word "Team" onto things. For example, Team Hide and Seek. One team hides, and the other team has to find them all and kill them. Within sixty seconds.
