About the Game

A multiplayer first-person game with elements of social deduction (inspired by the board game "Mafia"). Here, you must uncover who among you is the secret killer.

Goal:
Win depending on your role by fulfilling your victory conditions.

Gameplay
Before the game begins, each player is randomly assigned one of three roles:

  • Monk – Peaceful and unwilling to harm anyone, but in desperate situations is ready to use force for the greater good—provided they have something to fight back with. A large-caliber revolver should do the trick.

  • Magistrate – Their goal is to secretly protect the monks. Fortunately, they have the means to do so. Just make sure no one finds out what's hidden under your cloak, or the protector might become the next victim.

  • Lotus – A secret killer disguised as a monk. Their words can deceive you, leading to decisions that may cost you dearly.

Game Process
Monks, accompanied by the Magistrate, must collect Buddha Statues to win. Of course, finding them won’t be easy—teamwork is essential. And trust me, the Lotus won’t let that happen without a fight.

Along the way, you may find potions that increase your chances of victory. Drinking them may restore your health, help you survive an attack, let you see items through obstacles, or even reveal the identity of the person in front of you.

In this game, no one can be trusted. Victory comes through cunning, teamwork, or cold steel!
