Deceit 2 is a 2023 free-to-play first-person social deduction game developed and published by World Makers. The game was released for PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One on April 9, 2024. The game was met with mixed reviews from critics.
Gameplay
editThe game centres around players taking part in a ritual that is organised by the "Game Master", completing a various goal depending on the role that they have been randomly assigned: either Innocent, Infected or Cursed. Players that have been assigned the role of Innocent must either collect a total of 45 "souls" that can be found across the map by completing a series of tasks or by voting out Infected Players, players that are Infected must vote out other non-Infected players and those assigned the role of Cursed must satisfy the role of the Curse that they picked before the game commences.[1]
Upon spawning into "The Reality", the player is able to move throughout the map to interact with the other players or the various tasks that will reward them with souls. A core feature of this game is that the in-game voice chat uses a proximity system, in which players can only hear the voices of other players if they are in close proximity to them. During this period, a meter will slowly rise (only visible to Infected players) that once completed, will bring about a new stage of the game, referred to in-game as "The Inbetween". This period of the game can be reached faster by Infected players interacting with blood altars, which also has the potential to reward them with unique abilities but can alert others players to their role. During this period, the lights in-game will be cut out, reducing the visibility of all players, and voice chat will be slightly distorted, as well as their sanity meter slowly depleting. Infected players will be able to transform into their "terror" form, which will allow them to grab non-Infected players to drain their sanity. However, players who have been grabbed are able to escape after a set period of time by pressing the on-screen button, stunning the Infected player for a few seconds. This period of the game concludes either when the Inbetween meter reaches zero or a player gets caught by an Infected (which occurs when their sanity meter reaches 0).[2]
During the game, players can visit "The Peddler" to purchase items to give themselves an advantage, such as a pistol to down players to call a vote upon them, or an alarm that is activated when a blood altar is interacted with. Players can hold a maximum of 5 items at a time and can only purchase items from The Peddler when the players achieve a certain amount of souls collected.
Deceit 2 has a total of 3 maps to play on, which are Blackthorne Manor, Milhaven Asylum and Project Wurgen.[3]
