The core loop every round
StepEach round drops a killer into the map and your job is to stay alive until it ends. Surviving earns you bounty, which is the currency you use to upgrade your gear before the next round begins. Killers grow stronger as rounds stack up, so skipping upgrades puts you behind quickly.
- Round starts a killer is assigned and you spawn as a survivor
- Stay alive avoid the killer across the map for the full round
- Collect bounty bounty only arrives if you survive; dying means you earn nothing that round
- Upgrade gear spend your bounty between rounds to raise your survival chances
- Repeat each new round brings a harder killer, so keep upgrading
Team play versus solo play
TableBoth styles work, but they reward different things.
| Team play | more players around you means more chances to outlast the killer each round |
| Solo play | all bounty goes to you alone |

Common questions
FAQCan I play without spending Robux?
Yes. Earning bounty by surviving rounds and reinvesting it into gear upgrades is all you need to keep pace with rising difficulty.
What happens if I die during a round?
You do not receive any bounty for that round. Since bounty only arrives when you survive, dying sets back your upgrade progress.
Should I team up or go solo?
Team play raises survival odds; solo play keeps all the bounty for you.
