Devil's Bluff
About
Devil's Bluff is a highly social online murder-mystery where a group of friends are invited to the exclusive annual Halloween tradition of the Crawley Mansion, high atop the infamous Devil’s Bluff. Each year, guests are invited to take part in a costumed scavenger hunt on the expansive grounds of the reportedly haunted estate. The catch? There's a killer in your midst, and if you can't finish the Hunt, they've made a promise to finish all of you.
- Master the Mansion Explore the massive Crawley mansion, discovering secret rooms, doors, and passageways filled with interactive objects like trap doors, deadly spikes, teleportation devices, and clever hiding places.
- Be the Hunter or the Hunted Each game, one player will be randomly chosen to be the Devil, a killer in disguise as one of the dinner guests. Only the killer can attack, so players must push to finish the scavenger hunt before they are eliminated.
- Fun With Backstabbing Devil's Bluff is all about betrayal, backstabbing, and occasionally b****-slapping a rival to gain the upper hand. You can cooperate to distract, evade or capture the killer, but who can you trust? Form alliances, turn on each other, or go it alone - wit and wisdom are crucial to survival.
- Catch the Killer Players can team up to capture the Devil, but they have to uncover their identity first. Use audio chat to work together with nearby survivors to expose the secret identity of the killer, then team up to take down Devil and win the game.
- Communication is Key The game features proximity-based audio. Sound is only heard if players are close to the source, which means that every conversation, every footstep, and every random household sound can be a clue or the thing that leads the killer to your location.
- Terrifying Tunes The game's interactive 16-bit style soundtrack from Jake "Virt" Kaufman sets the tone for each area of the Mansion, with a special evil undertone that interrupts whenever the killer is close.

Controller Support: It works, but the UI does not help you, so it is very confusing to play with a (360) Controller.
@ Developers: I Like the game (i would not have backed....) Please integrate Buttons to Help.....
Your game cannot be played by a rookie who does not know the rules, because ......
(B) is usually used to abort and not to confirm.....
(Select) is for map
(A) is ro confirm.
I did not get how the game works (played 3 times)
Please try to learn the basics of controller support.....
F***king K/M Nazis..
Why do i always back games that do not know their customers (even COD sells 9/10 on Consoles)
.....
Please learn and implement standard Controller patterns....
I like the game but it is is inconprehensable for me....
......
Played with headset and i think the other players did not understand the game as well..... please have some tutorial (or thisl kickstarter game will tank as all the other dear and special ones without explanations for the casual guys)
.....
Installed it again after some patches (Tutorial mode ... yeah !!!).
Controller support is still sub par (wrong buttons and help is just showing keyboard buttons). Sorry guys you lost me. This is 2015 and when you support controllers (which you should, because it is 2015) do it right.

Compared to Garry's mod and his murder mode, this game is slightly more expensive and is very enjoyable to play.
Having a minimum notion of English is very important as is having a microphone.
The game is not unpleasant graphically and installs a pretty nice and semi-creepy vibe.
Unfortunately a single map for now (a species of great Manor) and many possibilities as well as a very strong potential.
You can create private parts if you want.
There may be up to 6 teams (of 2) but the game will start with 3 teams (2) or +.
And this is unfortunately where the negative part of my review comes from.
The game is deserted (and not deserted). Your only chance of being able to do a part is to come when the devs play them too. This is when there will be a chance to start a game. Because if you want to be certain to play, there must be at least 6 players connected to the game at the same time as you. This situation is almost impossible to observe, because the current Community of the game is far too small. There is only a see the number of review for the game: 142. That's why no one has an incredible number of hours, apart from the players who spend a lot of time on the solo mode, where you will only visit the map. Personally, most of the time I check if there are people connected, which is quite rare.
To be sure to play, it is better to have 6 buddies who also have the game and who are close to come play at the same time as you.
I recommend the game by hoping that the French community will also be able to play there without great conviction.
I will be delighted to change my review and remove all the negative part when the community is large enough to have at least one part per hour. Here, hoping my comment will change something.
