About This Game

Unwilling Executioner is a horror mystery roguelike where you’re forced to kill. The wrong choice costs you someone you love.

Ten hostages are trapped in The Bunker. Three of them are your family. The Owner is making you choose who dies, and refusing to play along isn’t an option: break the rules and someone dies at random.

Every run, the clues are randomly generated and scattered around the map. Cross-reference every detail, rule people out, and decide who lives before time runs out.

Unlock charms and build your skills to improve your odds of saving your family.

You must kill to save your family. Someone has to die, and you choose who to electrocute 

Find clues, determine who is family or not

Navigate traps

Keep track of clues for each hostage and determine who is family
