Deadly Trick

I really like Danganronpa and have also had a great time playing Among Us, so when I first saw the Class Trial sequence in Deadly Trick I at once felt a sense of familiarity that I really enjoyed. This game reminds me of the kind of mystery, investigation, and trial experience that I enjoy in Danganronpa, and the element of social deduction, suspicion, trust, and trying to work out who the hidden killer is also reminds me of Among Us. I would like to make it clear that Deadly Trick isn't a copy of either of those games. Since I enjoy both Danganronpa and Among Us, that's why I've made the comparison as a way of explaining the sort of feeling I experience when playing Deadly Trick. Although Deadly Trick has its own kind of gameplay and mechanics, given that I like both mystery games and social deduction games, I really appreciate what this game is achieving. In contrast to Among Us, where you normally talk about what has happened and then vote during the meetings, in Deadly Trick you get an investigation experience that allows you to look for clues and collect information before the Class Trial. You have to notice what is going on, think over the evidence that you find, and decide who you can trust. Deadly Trick forces you to put your brain to work by allowing you to collect clues, arranging the information you find into statements, exchanging those statements with the other players, and then using that information in the Class Trial to discover who the Shadow is. The Shadow acts as the concealed killer, much like the kind of hidden killer you would imagine in the game Among Us, where the White players are attempting to survive and work out who the Shadow is. The Mastermind is also a significant element of the game and has a role to play in how the killing situation starts. At the same time the Shadow has to be careful, avoid arousing suspicion, and do their utmost to conceal their identity while at the same time misleading the other players. One of the reasons I really enjoy the game is that it's not merely a matter of immediately voting for someone you suspect. You must actually consider the clues, pay attention to what the other players say, decide if their information can be trusted, and make an effort to convince your allies that your own line of reasoning is the correct one. I really enjoy mystery and detective games and find this kind of activity quite enjoyable. Even though I’m not very good at them, I still take pleasure in working out what’s going on and in seeing how each round is different. I came across Deadly Trick by chance when I was browsing the upcoming releases on Steam. I'm pleased that I found it since I wasn't familiar with the game at all and eventually ended up enjoying it a lot. The community is still rather small at the moment, but I truly hope that more players will discover the game in the future and that the community will become a lot bigger when the game is fully released. A difficulty that I've come across is the connection itself, since at times I get disconnected without any apparent reason, and therefore I truly hope that the connection stability will be improved. It would also be good if there were a visible ping or connection indicator in the game so that the players can know how good their connection is while they are playing. Overall In the end I do really enjoy this game and think that it's worth it for me; it's fun, mysterious and really enjoyable, particularly if you're a fan of mystery, deduction and detective-style games. Since the game is still in its Early Access stage, I realise that there are still some aspects that need improving and others that could be added. I hope that the developers keep taking players' feedback into account and take their time to carefully think about what should be added or improved in the game. I really do appreciate the fact that the developers are taking players' opinions into account and are still working on the game. I hope they keep on improving it by adding more interesting features and mechanics, sorting out the connection problems, and generally making the experience better as time goes on. I hope that more players will discover this game in the future and that the community becomes considerably larger when the game is fully released. I'm already having a lot of fun with the game since it's an Early Access title, and I'm looking forward to seeing what the developers will add later on. What a game! I do really enjoy it. I really do recommend that you give Deadly Trick a go! It's particularly worth looking at if you're a fan of Danganronpa, Among Us, or mystery and detective games in general. If you like investigating, looking for clues, working out who you can trust, and trying to discover the Shadow, then I'm sure you'll really enjoy this game.
