Overview

How a round works

Step

In short Understanding the basic flow of a round makes both roles much easier to play from the start.

At the start of each round, one player is randomly chosen as the Killer and everyone else plays as a Survivor. Survivors get a 15-second head start to hide before the Killer is released. The Killer's job is to take out as many Survivors as possible before the timer ends or everyone escapes. Survivors win by reaching the exit.

Round starts
roles are assigned randomly, so you may be a Survivor most of the time but you will eventually be the Killer.
Head start
Survivors have 15 seconds to move away from spawn before the Killer can act.
Fainted state
a Survivor hit twice enters a fainted state and slowly loses health; teammates can revive them.
Escape
Survivors who reach the exit get out; any loot they are carrying is sold automatically.

Playing as a Survivor

Tips

In short Crawl spaces, smart revives, and knowing your damage state are the three things that keep Survivors alive longest.

Survivors can take two hits before dying. The first hit makes your character hold their arm and leg; the second makes you limp. Watch your own movement animation — it tells you exactly how much health you have left after being revived. Fainted Survivors crawl faster than the Killer walks, so heading into a crawl space when you are down is a strong move.

Tips worth knowing

Read your animation
limping means one more hit will kill you.
Use crawl spaces to escape
Survivors move through them faster than the Killer can follow.
Avoid flashy knife skins near the Killer
some skin effects are visible through walls and lockers, and a Killer can follow the trail they leave.
Carry loot as you go
it sells automatically when you escape or die.

Playing as the Killer

Tips

In short The Killer's biggest edge comes from baiting revives and patrolling the whole map rather than camping one spot.

The Killer is chosen randomly each round, but you can buy the 3X Killer Chance Gamepass if you want that role more often. Killer skins have their own animations, sound effects, and intro sequences, but they do not change how the game actually plays. Your goal is to knock out as many Survivors as possible before the timer ends.

Tips worth knowing

Bait revives
after fainting a Survivor, walk slightly away so their health keeps draining, then wait for a teammate to come revive them and catch two players at once.
Listen for movement and watch for effects
some Survivor knife skins leave visible trails you can follow.
Collect Souls
Souls are the only loot the Killer can pick up.

The loot system

Summary

In short Loot earns you coins while you play; it converts automatically when the round ends.

Loot spawns across every map on tables, in houses, on top of lockers, and in other spots. You collect it during the round and it converts to coins automatically when the round ends, whether you escaped or died. Standard players can carry 8 pieces of loot and 1 loot destroyer per round. Roblox Premium members and VIP players each get 2 extra slots, raising the cap to 12. There are 30 different loot items in the game.

Common (white)
60% spawn chance, lowest coin value
Uncommon (blue)
25% spawn chance
Rare (red)
10% spawn chance
Legendary (pink)
4% spawn chance
Immortal (yellow)
1% spawn chance
Spectrum (rainbow)
0.2% spawn chance, highest coin value

Levelling up

Check

In short Playing consistently and using a Rocket Boost when you can are the straightforward ways to climb levels.

Every round you play earns experience points that count toward your level. Every five levels you gain a rank, and each rank has three phases. The current level cap is Level 100, called Magma III. A Rocket Boost doubles the experience you earn for several rounds.

Use a Rocket Boost to earn double experience for several rounds.
Check your rank every five levels each rank milestone marks meaningful progress toward Magma III.

Gamepass options worth knowing

Table

In short Each gamepass changes one specific thing about your game.

None of these are required to enjoy the game. The 3X Killer Chance pass raises your odds of being selected as Killer. Double Jump lets Survivors reach higher areas. Premium and VIP status each add two loot slots on top of the base eight.

3X Killer Chance	raises your probability of being selected as the Killer each round
Double Jump	lets Survivors reach higher areas and escape routes
Roblox Premium	adds two extra loot inventory slots per round
VIP	also adds two extra loot inventory slots per round

Common questions

FAQ

Can I choose to be the Killer every round?

Roles are assigned randomly at the start of each round, so you cannot guarantee it. Buying the 3X Killer Chance Gamepass raises the odds if you want that role more often.

What happens if I faint but reach the exit?

Fainted Survivors can physically pass through the exit during a round, but they die automatically once they arrive in the lobby.

Does my knife skin affect whether the Killer can find me?

Yes, for certain skins. Some knife skin effects are visible through walls, lockers, and floors, and the Killer can follow the trail a knife skin leaves.

How many pieces of loot can I carry?

Standard players carry up to 8 loot items plus 1 loot destroyer per round. Roblox Premium members and VIP players each get 2 extra slots, bringing the maximum to 12 loot items.

Do Killer skins make me stronger?

Killer skins change how your character looks, sounds, and enters the round, but they have no meaningful effect on gameplay.
