Killer Trait

Killer Trait is a deduction-based horror game set in an isolated environment where players must identify the hidden killer before it’s too late. The twist? The killer changes every round, and their behavior subtly adapts to your actions. Whether you’re playing solo or with simulated companions, every interaction counts — and mistakes are fatal.

Social Mechanics Meet Stealth Horror

The core of Killer Trait lies in watching others. You’re placed in a closed facility with several AI-controlled characters. Only one is secretly hostile. You must study patterns: who avoids rooms, who lingers, who picks up what items. The killer leaves indirect clues — moved objects, missing supplies, inconsistent stories. When you think you know who it is, you can try to expose them. But false accusations come with harsh consequences.

• Dynamic AI personalities that shift with each game
• Randomized character traits like paranoia or friendliness
• Timed suspicion meter based on observed behavior

Investigate, Hide, or Eliminate

Each level offers different paths to victory. You can gather evidence and publicly confront the suspect, escape through hidden tunnels, or even acquire temporary tools to incapacitate others. However, the killer also adapts. They may sabotage lights, isolate victims, or mimic helpful behaviors. This cat-and-mouse gameplay drives the tension forward without relying on jump scares.

• Clue-based gameplay with limited inventory space
• Player deception system for role-based challenge
• Multiple endings depending on how the threat is handled

Unlockables and Behavior Tracking

Killer Trait tracks your choices across playthroughs. Over time, you unlock behavior graphs, profile summaries, and special tools like the suspicion overlay or event tracker. You can enable gameplay modifiers that randomize roles, blur the killer’s identity further, or create custom AI personalities with tailored quirks.

Killer Trait delivers an intense blend of observation, deduction, and stealth under pressure. The tension builds not through action, but through unease — every interaction may be your last. It’s a test of attention to detail, memory, and nerve.
