In this post we'll be diving into all of our in-development updates. Expect a steady flow of notable updates throughout the month—including our highly-anticipated new Role system—culminating in our Halloween festivities that start on the 26th of October.
But first! An Early Bird bonus
Anyone who purchases Deceit 2 by October 25th will continue to receive a bonus 600 in-game shillings as a token of our gratitude. On behalf of the whole team here at World Makers, thank you for your continued support and invaluable feedback. This is just the start of a very exciting journey.Later this month – Roles
Roles in Deceit 2 are secret objectives that add strategic depth to gameplay. Players complete these objectives, earning extra rewards. Roles make every decision critical and add new win conditions - can you win the Ritual? The Game Master has been scheming, and the result is nothing short of the most monumental, game-altering update since our launch. We're thrilled—no, ecstatic—to pull back the curtain on Roles. This isn't just a new layer of paint; it's a labyrinth of new possibilities, secret objectives, and treacherous win conditions that will turn every corridor into a mind game and every decision into a potential trap. But that's not all. Roles inject a whole new level of strategy into the gameplay. Now, every move you make, every alliance you form, and every accusation you hurl could be influenced by hidden objectives. It's not just about survival anymore; it's about mastering your Role while deciphering others, adding a complex new dimension to your strategies.Available Roles and Their Objectives
Here's a sneak peek at some of the Roles we've been testing:Human
- Innocent: Complete tasks along with the other Humans to escape.
- Guardian: Preemptively chose someone to protect, saving them from execution in the In-Between.
- Warden: Banish any player, but beware—if they're Human, you’ll die too.
- Masquerade: Appear as one of the Terrors and perform some actions otherwise exclusive to them.

- And more to come...
