DEATH NOTE Killer Within

I have over 1000 hours on this game and I nerd about it so trust me when I say just don't bother. It had its peaks after launch, the Mello update and the X-Kira update. And those were the only times the game offered some fun and novelty. It's meant to be played with voice chat but people are toxic (and there's a reason text chat has flood measures which VC can never have), a missing anti-cheat makes the community already play a meta social deduction game of "Who's The Cheater?" that makes lobbies even more hostile (you couldn't join any games from PC during the great depression), the game being fundamentally different than Among Us requires almost all players to be semi competent which they never are, combined with balance being completely missing because its up to god-knows-whom host's feelings. Overall the idea is very good, but the execution is awful. If it had an actual team, not even team a single developer, and if it was cheaper or free, the game would be somewhat playable. If you buy now, you'll likely be crushed by the seasoned players, lose countless games because you got unlucky, fail to find any lobbies and inevitably fail to have fun. But if you can handle the game being dead and have the verbal capacity to be vile, feel free to try.

This game was the first game I've ever bought in my life. It was my favorite game back then. I met many people playing that game, which are my friends till today. A game based on one of my favourite anime of all time? A game that is strategic, multiplayer, among us like? The idea of it was thrilling. Yeah, that's what I wanted. I used to play with my friends every single day, despite the time zones. We had fun. The concept of it was actually smart, and I think that was the best fit for the specific anime. One thing I didn't like with that game was the fact that were many hackers, to the point they would assume I'm a hacker for not having a mic or just because I played from my pc. There were many racists, sexists, and all of kinds of people. They took the game seriously, even though that was not the point of it, as a result ruining the fun. It seemed like the company was mostly after our money and not actually to be able to make it user friendly or help us with the hackers. People stopped playing that game mostly for the hackers. I opened it recently and a few months ago to play. There was no one online. No groups, nothing. Despite the server. Wasted 10€ for nothing. I do NOT recommend that game to anyone. If you see my review and want to play that game, it would be nice just to have a little fun.

THIS GAME IS dead sadly

Игра мертва

I honestly forgot I bought and played this game on launch. TLDR: This game should be delisted because it's a scam, don't buy this. I never liked Among Us, I thought it was a boring experience especially when dealing with people who don't even understand what they're supposed to be doing. The only reason I've played this game is because it's Death Note and the concept was mildly interesting. When the leaks came, I knew what was about to happen: KW would slowly release all this leaked content behind multiple battle passes, then stop updating. Spoiler: I was right all along. The only time Killer Within was any fun was at the very beginning when it was just L against Kira. Unfortunately the core concept itself was just broken and unfun anyway: - Kira was blatantly busted because stealing IDs and killing was so easy, L could have the misfortune of spawning with Kira and dying in the next 5 seconds. Match over instantly; - Investigation Team was also blatantly busted if the people actually worked together and abused the mechanics to force everyone to stick together, making sure Kira and his Follower could never steal IDs without being immediately discovered; - Stealing IDs was wildly inconsistent, there were a lot of times where I died even though nobody approached me at all. Every update after that just broke the balance even further and I believe Investigation Team is so insanely busted now that playing Kira is torture, but I wouldn't know because I stopped playing after Mello was released. The community is also very hostile and kicks out everyone who doesn't belong to their little Discord group, so essentially you can't play the game because other people won't let you. [strike] People ruining everything? What a shocker. [/strike] So let's wrap it up: - Balance doesn't exist whatsoever, core mechanics are broken and don't function properly; - Devs never cared in the first place, they just wanted your money since the content was always there from release (as the leaks revealed); - The community is very unfriendly and won't let you play, so you can't play the game even if you wanted to. Just leave Death Note alone at this point. Let it die in peace instead of doing cashgrabs.

bro this game filled with hackers

Who thought a licensed social deduction game would be extremely fun if you somehow managed to find a group of 7 or more friends to play with. Bit lame to lock all the characters who arent eyesores behind DLC Passes

Fan of Death Note, so the game seemed fun af! But no players :( had to refund

the game itself iis very good im not the best at it (when im writing this) just hard to find lobbies join a discord server where there looking for players channel u can find lobbies

I like the game to bad it's kinda dead now but it was really good still is
