Think Among Us but instead of murdering the imposter is "infected" and spreading some mind control alien virus.
Game starts with 1 infected player and everyone else is a human.
Infected Player Goals
Infect all other players to win. Doing so converts them to your team (and yes they can also infect). You start the game with 0 charges to infect others and each infection attempt costs 1 charge.
To gain a charge you must touch your hive. The hive spawns in a random location each game but as an infected player you have an arrow pointing to it.
Your hive is a purple rock.
Upon touching it you will refill your infection charge.
When you are next to a player you can click this button to infect them. It only works when next to a single player, so if you are in range of multiple players the button will be grayed out.
Be careful you can infect ANYONE, including other infected players which does nothing more than burn your charge.
After every infection attempt there is a cooldown.
Human Goals
Fill the research bar to understand what this infection is, doing so makes it so you can kill the hive and win.
You start the game with a defensive charge that act as an EMP of sorts. Using it in proximity of an infected player will remove any infection charges they have and trigger their infection cooldown. This means they'll have to return to the hive before they can infect you.
Winning as a human requires managing this resource wisely, as the same resource that defends you is what kills the hive when the research bar is full. You only get a couple of these through out the entire game.
When your research bar is filled
the hive is vulnerable. You must run to the hive and use your defensive ability on it. Depending on game settings it will likely take 1 or 2 hits to kill the hive.
Example of defensive ability in action. See how it disables the infected players charge and triggers their cooldown (they're right screen)
VOIP
Every hallway and room in this game has proximity voice chat. I have no idea if it will be fun or not but you can talk to anyone near you, friend, foe, or unknown.
The only time you can communicate to the entire group is the lobby between rounds or while all in the same room.
Additionally there are a few intercoms on the map that will broadcast your voice to everyone if you stand near.
