Murder is an arcade stealth game where you take on the role of a sly assassin aiming to depose the king and seize the throne. Your mission is to approach the monarch unnoticed and strike decisively without being caught. If the king spots you, your plan will fail and you’ll be thrown in jail.
Upon success, the tables turn — you become the king, and others will try to assassinate you. This sets up an endless loop of power shifts, treachery, and survival, requiring constant vigilance and swift reactions.
With simple one-button controls, the game demands precise timing and quick reflexes. Though it has a lighthearted and minimalist style, Murder delves into themes of ambition, distrust, and greed, keeping players tense and engaged.
This game is ideal for those who prefer brief yet captivating gameplay sessions with strategic and stealth elements.
How to play
Press and hold the button to plan an attack on the king. Release it if he starts to turn — otherwise, you’ll be exposed. Eliminate him successfully to claim the throne. Once you become king, stay vigilant and act fast to prevent others from assassinating you.
