About Murder
Murder is a short horror game about being hunted. You move through a dark environment with limited visibility while something pursues you; the game is about listening, choosing when to move, and knowing when a corridor is a trap. There is no combat — hiding and running are all you have.
Like most good browser horror, it works because of restraint: little is shown, the audio does most of the work, and the jump scares arrive when you have started to relax. Play it with headphones and the lights on if that's your preference.

Murder tips
- Headphones aren't optional — direction of sound is the only reliable information you get.
- Stop moving when you hear it nearby. Running gives away your position more than being seen does.
- Learn the layout in the first minute; knowing a second exit is what saves a chase.
- Don't sprint everywhere. Stamina and noise both matter.
Murder — questions
Is Murder scary?
It's built around tension and jump scares rather than gore — dark environments, audio cues and a pursuer you can't fight. It suits teens and up; younger players may find it too much.
Can you fight back in Murder?
No. Hiding, moving quietly and knowing the layout are your only tools, which is what makes it tense.
Does Murder work on a Chromebook?
Yes — it runs in the browser with nothing to install. Click the game to capture the mouse, and use headphones.
