- [p]Any aspect of the game, from its design to even minor details, may be changed or tweaked. One clear difference is that in the closed beta tests, you can select any character from the start. In the release version, you’ll unlock characters as you play the game, with around half of them initially locked.[/p]
- [p]No, both voice and text chat are optional. The game is designed to be fun even without them, but it’s definitely a big part of KILLER INN’s appeal. A lively chat makes the game more engaging and really stirs things up![/p]

- [p]While there are social deduction elements in KILLER INN, there is no discussion or voting to eliminate players, which means you don’t have to get too into the weeds about things.[/p]
- [p]Yup! Take out everyone on the other team to win. That being said, the lambs can also win if they collect all the keys, open the gate to the harbor, and escape on the ship.[/p]
- [p]Players are randomly assigned the role of either a wolf or a lamb, and each starts the game in their own guest room.[/p]
- [p]Lambs cannot tell who the wolves or other lambs are. Wolves, on the other hand, can see each player's role via icons next to their usernames. Wolves must not reveal their true identity.[/p]
- [p]This closed beta test is a 24-player experience. Out of the 24, 8 are wolves and 16 are lambs.[/p]
- [p]Whether you're a wolf or a lamb, your goal is to eliminate the opposing team. At the start of the game, focus on collecting weapons and items to help you fight. Talk to the staff to receive quests, and use the tokens you earn from these quests to open chests and gather equipment.[/p]
- [p]Blend in with the lambs while collecting weapons and items. Search for lone lambs and strike when the opportunity presents itself![/p]
- [p]Gather weapons and items to fight against the wolves. If you come across a corpse, be sure to collect their clues! They are key to narrowing down who the wolves are. The more clues you gather, the easier it becomes to identify the wolves.[/p]
- [p]If you’re confident someone is a wolf, take them out. You can also sell clues to the staff to share it with others, and earn gold and XP. Work together and gather as many clues as possible![/p]
- [p]Not if you want to stay in the game! If a lamb tries to kill another lamb, it's considered a bad guess, and the attacker is removed from the game.[/p]
- [p]No. Clues hinting at the wolves’ identities can also be found on “Sacrifices”—corpses already present at the start of the game.[/p]
- [p]These can give an advantage. However, it's also possible to gain an edge through action game or shooter game skills, not just communication.[/p]
- [p]We have servers in North America, Europe, and Asia. You will automatically be connected to servers in the region nearest you.[/p]
- [p]We apologize for the inconvenience. We are taking every effort during development to prevent this kind of issue, but should your character become stuck, try using the “/unstuck” command.[/p]
- [p]Press \[Enter] to open chat window[/p]
- [p]Type “/unstuck”[/p]
- [p]Press \[Enter] again[/p]
