About Murder
Murder is a one-button game about timing, suspicion, and an endlessly contested crown. You begin behind the king, waiting for the right opportunity to make your move without being noticed.
Success puts you on the throne, but it also changes your role. Now you must watch the people behind you and turn around before another ambitious character catches you off guard.
Simple controls make the game easy to start, while unpredictable characters and funny situations keep each attempt interesting.
Play Murder at GD Lite and see how long you can hold onto the crown.
