Gameplay
One of the players (chosen randomly) is the murderer and his goal is to kill everyone else.
The other players must survive, find the mansion key and then escape through the front door (at the start).
There is a timer displaying the killers life at the upper right corner of the screen. Once this timer reaches zero, the killer dies and the game ends. When the killer kills somebody the timer resets to 3min (unless he has more time remaining).
The game ends when all victims are either dead or have escaped the mansion or when the killer dies.

Q: What kind of game is this?
A: A murderer game. One player is the killer and must kill others. The others must find the key and escape the mansion or kill the killer.
Q: How many keys are there? Where are the keys?
A: There is only one key and it is always at a random location
Q: How many killers are there?
A: One. He is chosen randomly
Q: What happens if killer dies?
A: The other players (that are still alive) will win the game. But if the killer dies very early in the game (before 3 minutes of gameplay), another killer will be chosen.
Q: I can't see anything!!
A: Switch off the lights from your room and you should be able to see just fine. Also make sure your brightness settings are reasonable.
Q: How to change camera?
A: The camera is locked to your unit and you cannot change that (at least not in the current version).
Besides, if the camera would be like the default wc3 camera there wouldn't be any challenge or feeling to the game.
Q: How do I know if I'm the killer?
A: You're told in the beginning of the game. Also, if you find your character having the skill "Killer Form" and "Shadow Run" then you most definately are the killer.
Q: How to shout?
A: Just type "-s <your message>"
Q: What if the killer finds the key?
A: Doesn't matter. The killer cannot pick up the key and it is indestructible.
Q: Where can I get a weapon?
A: They can be found on the floor scattered around the mansion
1) Like said before, switch off the lights in your room to be able to see properly
2) Keep an eye out for various items scattered around the floor. They can save your life!
3) If you're the killer, use human form to travel faster and collect items
4) If you die, don't leave the game. You can stay and spectate the other players and learn from them. Also, after the game you can see the game and player statistics
Stats at the end of the game
If you find any bugs or have any suggestions, let me know!
Also, I'll be adding more screenshots later.
