What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Our game is playable but needs a community to test balance and provide feedback. Early Access lets us improve the game with your help while building our player base.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We expect 4-8 months in Early Access, depending on community feedback and development needs.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The full version may include additional maps, new roles, and optional DLC, depending on player interest and community engagement. We're focusing on refining the current gameplay and will explore expanding the game further based on feedback and overall reception during Early Access.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game is fully playable with all six roles, functional multiplayer, lobby system, and complete day/night gameplay. It's stable but will be polished throughout Early Access.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The game is free to play. We may add optional paid content later if player base grows.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We'll gather feedback through Discord, in-game surveys, and beta testing. Players will directly influence our development priorities and game balance.”

About This Game

Impostor Online is a murder mystery and social deduction game inspired by classics like Werewolf and Town of Salem. In each match, players are assigned random roles within three competing factions: Civilians (good guys), Impostors (bad guys), and Zombies (infection). Civilians win by eliminating all Impostors and Zombies, Impostors win by outnumbering Civilians, and Zombies win if they're the last faction standing.

Impostors are the main murderers. Each night, they can see and communicate with one another and select one player to eliminate.

Ghost Investigators play a crucial role on the Civilians team. Each night, they can communicate and choose one player to investigate, revealing their role and guiding the team's strategy.

Jester can either vote to kill a player each night or hide to conceal their identity from investigators.

Nurse can inject players each night. Their injections heal players targeted by Impostors, but will kill any player after two non-consecutive treatments. Nurse can instantly eliminate Zombies with a single injection.

Zombies can infect one player each night to convert them to their team. However, they can't identify fellow Zombies, and accidentally targeting another Zombie results in that Zombie's death.

During the day, all players gather to debate who they believe is guilty. Through voting, they can lynch a suspect. Civilians must collaborate with Investigators to eliminate the Impostors and Zombies to secure their victory.

FEATURES:

  • Multiplayer: Play online with 6 to 16 players. You can play with your friends or join other players.

  • Written and vocal chat: Communication is key in Impostor Online, as you have to either accuse suspicious players or defend yourself against their accusations!

  • Multiple unique roles: Special roles and abilities across three competing factions – Civilians, Impostors, and Zombies.

  • Customization: Personalize your character from head to foot.

  • Progression and statistics: Earn experience points and rewards from every game you win. As you level up, unlock new titles and cosmetic items to showcase your rank and style.
