    An idea copied from Trouble in Terrorist town, except horribly executed.

    Poor selection of weapons.

    No incentive for co-operation.

    Terrible audio and game play stages.

    Melee combat is awful.

    Graphics are OK, and it's free at least.

    Интересная задумка, уебищная реализация, комьюнити говна, разработчики хуесосы. (апал даймонд ранг около 10 раз, брал несколько раз топ ранг так что сосите хуй)

    This is a badly executed Trouble in Terrorist Town ripoff with a very toxic community.

    Toxic community, developers don't care for the game, takes way too long to matchmake, terrible grinding system. The main offender here is the community, mostly friend groups, they will kill you instantly when you spawn in a match which means you can't play. Bad game.

    EDIT: In December of 2020, the new owners of this title decided to scrap the original gameplay formula and force Deceit's mechanics into a poor imitation of Among Us. Instead of adrenaline filled gunfights and monster chases, players now jump to a conference table room every time someone is selected (by bullet) to vote. It is no longer the same game.

    Old Review: Fun mafia/werewolf

    Old Review:
    Fun mafia/werewolf style horror game where 2/6 players are "infected." Survivors need to identify the infected and kill them.

    I enjoy this game because (unlike the turn by turn board games) there is a desperation in trying to prevent yourself from being discovered, but you still have options.

    Gameplay mechanics are quite fair and well worked. The only exception being that some people enter the game with Discord and help their friends on the other team (which ruins the deception).

    deceit a game about deceiving people. I'm just gonna out right say it the new one is way worse than the early one this new update changed the voting system from a skill based system to a among us type system, and how one guy gets to decide who is your team yea it might be good for people with there friends but also if you play it alone with randoms well you will never get picked, thedeceit a game about deceiving people.

    The concept is great and the execution is far from bad, but there is room for improvement. The maps are rich and make each game feel incredibly singular and flustered in a different way. But, the weapons feel weak and movements feel awkward. There’s much potential and excitement to be had in Deceit, and even more screams and scares.

    Deceit’s concept is fantastic and the psychological aspect of gameplay is great, but ugly visuals and Early Access level of polish make the game harder to enjoy than it should be. [09/2017, p.72]

    Deceit is a game of deception and co-operation. A concept excellent on paper. In practice though, it does fall flat on itself. It has a problematic community which can be tough on new players. If Deceit allowed friends to play together it could make for a great party game. Unfortunately, this is not the vision of the developers. They'd rather see strangers forced to work together in dire situations.
