Overview
The Deed of Deception begins as a cooperative puzzle experience for three or more players, tasking them with finding a deed to inherit a fortune. However, the discovery of the deed shatters this illusion, revealing an ancient, malevolent presence within the manor. The player who uncovers the deed becomes possessed, gaining supernatural abilities with the sole purpose of trapping their friends and sacrificing their souls to empower the entity. This transforms the game from a collaborative puzzle-solving endeavor into a tense, asymmetrical struggle for survival.
