Bet you didn’t have this on your bingo list. Developed by Tactic Studios in collaboration with Square Enaix, the game was announced during the streaming of the LivesRaam Summer Game, and is far from the famous bread and butter from the RPG manufacturer. Killer Inn, as it is said, is a mystery of multiplayer murder that is between the game similar to us and removes it by delivering knives, weapons and many other weapons to kill or kill while looking for the original killer.
Killer Inn could be one of those games that is best understood after playing a few games, but even from the revealing trailer, there are many things. In each game, 24 players enter a hotel turned to the castle to determine who are the real murderers, as they are collected one by one. There is deduction and capital letters.
The Killer Inn play phases are molded after detective style games, from between us to the last man-wolf to the Mafia. A game begins with most players as cooperative participants (“lambs”, in the speech of Killer Inn) mixed with a few secret murderers (“wolves”). Players complete the tasks to gain redeemable tiles for articles and weapons, while the murderers quietly their business, until someone discovers a body. In the body there are tracks that leave the murderer, so that lambs may try to deduce the real culprit (or guilty).
It is then about collecting clues and identifying the wolves, but unlike us, there is no group discussion to present tests or vote. Killer Inn jumps the scene in the show and goes directly to the action: If you are sure someone is the killer, remove them. Use those weapons and leaves bought by Token to leave the villa. Unless you accidentally murder one of your innocent teammates, in this case you have become a stone for the rest of the game. Bummer.
The lambs have another condition as a victory: to set up four keys to escape the boat that took them to Murder Island. There are other mechanics, such as finding security for rooms with hotel staff, who will identify wolves who kill lambs on their line of view.
Players can choose between 25 prizes that each have their own unique appearances and skills, which improve as the game continues, often reflecting the dark sides of the participants. For example, Winston is a surgeon who kills knives more efficiently and, when level, deals with additional damage while covering with blood. On the contrary, Otaku wins 25 hp of finding tracks and eventually generates resistance to state effects. The levels are not transmitted between the parties: everyone starts fresh at the first level.
Killer Inn does not have a launch date, but the game will begin a closed beta test on Steam in the near future.
