FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

How does the 'Insight' mechanic influence my ability to successfully identify my target?

Insight provides clues about your target's current behavior, such as their direction of movement or recent actions, aiding in deduction but not revealing their exact location or appearance. Excessive use reduces its effectiveness over time.

If I am disguised and my target is nearby, can they identify me as the person they are hunting?

Yes, if they have you in their line of sight for an extended period, they will start to recognize you. The longer they look, the more likely they are to identify you, regardless of your disguise.

How does the 'Suspicion' level of a character affect the gameplay, and how can I manipulate it?

Suspicion increases the chance of being identified. It builds up when you are observed behaving suspiciously (e.g., spending too long near a target). It can be reduced by remaining unseen and using environment features.

Can I kill my target while disguised, and does the disguise impact the kill animation or the subsequent suspicion level?

Yes, you can kill while disguised. The kill animation will change depending on the weapon and angle of approach. The disguise will not directly affect suspicion, but witnesses will be alerted.

What is the purpose of the 'Momentum' mechanic, and how does it relate to the game's core gameplay loop?

Momentum is gained by moving unseen and performing actions that avoid suspicion. It enables the use of unique abilities or advantages such as a temporary speed boost or more efficient reloading, crucial for evading pursuers and pursuing targets.

How does the 'Quarry' system work in relation to selecting targets and the ever-changing nature of hunting and being hunted?

The Quarry system randomly assigns each player a target to hunt and a hunter. This changes dynamically throughout each round, forcing players to constantly adapt their strategies.

Is it possible to blend in the environment effectively, and if so, how does this interact with the 'Suspicion' and 'Insight' mechanics?

Yes, blending into the environment is critical for avoiding detection and lowering suspicion. The effectiveness depends on the environment and the current level of 'Insight' held by your pursuers.

How do different weapons affect the gameplay, and do they influence the way a player is perceived?

Different weapons have different animations and reveal the killer's position to witnesses more or less dramatically. They also influence the time it takes to perform a kill and the immediate 'Suspicion' level of the killer.

Does the game offer any form of environmental interaction, and how can this be used strategically within the gameplay?

Yes, the game features interactive environments. Players can use these to create diversions, escape pursuers, or set up ambushes, thus adding layers of strategy to the core gameplay.

How does the number of players affect the dynamics of the hunting and being hunted gameplay?

With more players, the level of chaos and unpredictability increases. More targets and hunters exist, and players have more options for disguises and ambushes, changing the strategic element.
