Overview
Lycans plunges players into a tense multiplayer experience where trust is scarce and survival is paramount. This action-strategy game, developed and published by Onu Games, pits up to 12 players against each other in a desperate struggle for survival.
The core gameplay revolves around social deduction and resource management, forcing players to constantly question who among them is a hidden werewolf.
Highlights
- Intense Social Deduction: Players must investigate and deduce who the werewolves are during the day, while at night, they must survive the brutal attacks of the transformed hunters. The game thrives on player interaction and communication.
- Mandatory Proximity Voice Chat: To foster an immersive and immediate experience, Lycans requires players to use proximity voice chat. This feature is crucial for coordinating strategies, sharing information, and, of course, for deception.
- Resource Gathering and Survival: Explore the island to gather vital resources that will aid the villagers in their fight against the lycanthropes. Success hinges on collective effort and smart decision-making before everyone succumbs to the nightly onslaught.
Who It's For
Lycans is designed for players who enjoy social deduction games with a strong emphasis on communication and deception.
