Murder is a unique arcade-style stealth game where you play as a cunning assassin trying to overthrow the king and claim the throne. Your main goal is to sneak up behind the ruler and strike at the perfect moment without being noticed. However, if the king turns around and catches you, your attempt fails and you end up in prison.
Once you succeed, the roles reverse — you become the king, and now others will try to assassinate you. This creates a continuous cycle of power, betrayal, and survival, where you must stay alert and react quickly.
The game features simple one-button controls but requires sharp timing and fast reflexes. Despite its humorous and minimalistic style, Murder explores themes of ambition, suspicion, and greed, keeping players constantly on edge.
Murder is perfect for players who enjoy short, engaging gameplay sessions with elements of strategy and stealth.
How to play
Hold the button to prepare your attack on the king. Release it if he turns around — otherwise, you’ll get caught. Successfully assassinate him to take the throne. As king, watch your back and react quickly to stop others from killing you.
