The basic loop
Step
In short
Every round follows the same four actions.
As soon as the round starts, your first job is shelter. While you are building, the killer is already moving. Once you have a basic hideout, you can start venturing out for cash, then spend that cash on new blocks to improve your setup.
- Place blocks get walls and a roof up before the killer closes in.
- Earn cash explore the map while watching for the killer.
- Buy blocks spend what you collected on stronger or new block types.
- Survive return to your hideout whenever the killer gets close.

02
Building a hideout that holds up
CheckIn short
A hideout with multiple exits and thick walls gives you real options when the killer arrives.
A single-entrance hideout is a trap — if the killer finds the door, you have nowhere to go. Build with at least two ways in and out so you can slip away while the killer comes through the other side. Thin walls can be broken through quickly, so use plenty of blocks when reinforcing them. Higher ground is also worth considering.
- At least two exits are built in before you consider the hideout finished.
- Walls are thick enough that a quick break-in is not trivial.
- A clear escape route leads away from each exit.
- High-ground placement has been considered for the site.

Collecting cash without getting caught
TipsIn short
Timing your cash runs around the killer's position is the safest way to build up funds.
Cash is spread across the map in multiple spots, so you need to move around to find it. Sitting inside your hideout the entire round means you never earn enough to upgrade.
Tips worth knowing
- Check where the killer is before stepping outside your hideout.
- Cash is spread across several locations, so rotate between spots over multiple trips.
05
Escaping when the killer spots you
WarnIn short
The moment you are seen, heading straight for your hideout beats any other option.
When the killer has eyes on you, trying to grab extra cash on the way back is a mistake. Your hideout is the goal — get there directly. Knowing exactly where it is at all times matters, because hesitation while being chased costs you the seconds you need.
Worth watching out for
Going to your hideout immediately is safer than trying a winding escape route.
Move fast as soon as you enter the killer's line of sight.
Always keep your hideout's position in mind so you never have to stop and look for it.
06
Progressing without spending real money
SummaryIn short
In-game cash alone drives your progression, so steady play is all you need to keep improving.
New blocks are unlocked with in-game cash, not real purchases, which means every upgrade comes from playing. Starting blocks are enough to survive early rounds while you build up funds.
- Progression system driven entirely by in-game cash earned during rounds.
- Starting blocks sufficient to play and survive while you save up.
- Upgrade path unlocking new block types is the main long-term goal.

Pretty much the only way to beat the デストロイヤー is to run away, so your best bet is to use ウルトラスラスター and カメラジロ, armor them up, and get out of there.

Common questions
FAQWhat should I do at the very start of a round?
Place blocks and get at least a basic shelter up before the killer finds you. Once the walls are in place, you can start thinking about cash.
Why does the killer keep finding me?
Check whether your hideout has enough exits — a single door makes you easy to corner. When you go out for cash, look around first. The fewer seconds you spend in the open, the harder you are to spot.
Can I play this with friends?
Yes, the game supports playing with friends.
