About Deceit

Deceit puts your instincts for trust and deception to the test in a multiplayer first-person shooter. You wake in an asylum to an unfamiliar voice, surrounded by five other people, and learn that a third of your group has been infected with a virus. The question that hangs over everything is simple: who will escape? As you move through the building, the power cuts out and plunges rooms into darkness, giving the infected the chance to shift into their terror form and strike.

The environment is deliberately designed to breed conflict, sowing doubt about everyone's true intentions. The infected work to cover up their sabotage, while the rest watch for suspicious behavior and try to band together with those they believe they can trust. Scattered around the map are objectives that improve your odds of survival and progress toward the exit, but you must decide which matter most and whether to collaborate or fight over them.

Every decision reveals more information and hints at which team a player might be on, though the perception of any action isn't always a fair reflection of intent, since the truth is easily twisted. Blackout periods sweep across the map, heightening the paranoia. As an action-focused indie multiplayer title on PC, Deceit thrives on suspicion, misdirection, and the uncertainty of who stands beside you.
