The imposters' objective is to kill all the crew of the ship, but all this without being discovered.

And that's where the whole plot of the game comes in. When a dead body is found by a third party, it is possible to 'report' the body, and this opens a summons for the crew, where the objective is to find who is the impostor among them so they can get rid of him. After the conversation between the players, and democratic voting where the most voted and supposed impostor is ejected from the ship. However, the ejected person could be the one who reported the body if someone saw the person near the dead body.

That is, you may not be the imposter, but proving that you are not is another thing. Which makes the game quite fun when played with friends, making it a land without friendships, where betrayals run rampant.

Using real-time communications platforms, to be able to talk to several friends at the same time, and with a focus on games. like the discord, which is widely used by players for being very practical! It can be used both on mobile devices and on the PC itself.

Now, an important tip! When you are the imposter, don't show it, act strategically, that is, don't kill anyone at the first opportunity you find. First observe the perimeter well, if you are alone or if someone is coming your way, because as soon as you make the attack, the ability to kill the friend enters Cowdall (time to use again); And with that, you can't kill what comes your way, thus being caught red-handed!
