As victims, scatter around using the underground tunnels safely and reach key points quickly. As killer, lay in ambush around those key points. ◆ As victims try to remain stealthy. As a killer, track down the aural and visual cues of noises to find your prey! ◆ Help the other victims and escape together, or turn into undead and get left behind forever. ◆ Customize all the variables in a match.
