Killer Chat! is only available to download on PC/Mac, and unfortunately is not supported for use on mobile or emulators. If you are new to itch.io, download instructions are here!



After asking too many murder-related questions online (for your book), you get an invite to a... serial killer chatroom?! 

What the fuck?

SO YOU'RE A SERIAL KILLER. SUPPOSEDLY.

A reporter by day, an aspiring writer by night: you've been asking all the important questions on the dark web. 

Like, how do you bury a body? How do you kill someone with a crowbar with the right angle to cause blunt-force trauma? What's the best way to hide from law enforcement?

If you're to write a good crime book, this is how you'll do it.

Suddenly, ERROR! UNKNOWN invites you to a server... with a warning. "don't be so obvious smh You're Gonna Get Caught".

...

It's a serial killer chatroom.

You may be slightly fucked.


WELCOME TO HELL, LOSERS!

Play as a (fully customisable!) character as you… 

  • Desperately pretend to be a serial killer… just like the other girls serial killers. So they don't kick you out. Or kill you. Oh god, they might kill you for accidentally infiltrating their chat. 
  • Get to know some killers. You might as well scope this out, right? No better chance to gather accurate first-hand data for your book. 
  • Huh, they're actually kind of nice? Maybe you can make some friends. 
  • You really shouldn't be texting as much as you are. 
  • You're getting… DM's? Multiple DM's? 
  • Oh shit, he's hot. And she's hot. 
  • Maybe you can… date… some murderers?
  • What even is your life.

Yup, you heard us right! Killer Chat is a dark satire romance chatsim where you date serial killers. Pretend to be a serial killer, get inspiration for your book, fall in love, and try not to call the cops through a whirlwind six months with your murderous beau of choice.  Who knows? You might find your happily ever after... or headline the news as a gruesomely lovesick corpse. It's honestly up to you.


FEATURING WHO OTHER THAN... YOURS TRULY? 

  • Customisable MC! (Name, username, personality, gender, face, body, clothing, accessories, what kind of pseudo serial killer you are...)
  • Four serial killers love interests across all genders (male, female, non-binary)... 
  • Story-rich, choice-based branching towards 8 unique endings.
  • Make voice and video calls to the server's serial killers, listen to voice messages, get them to accept your friend requests, and more!

  • Write your own status, biography, and messages in chat!

  • Four illustrated CG's.
  • Custom-made OST and sound effects.
  • A playtime of approx. 2-3 hours per route, 9-12 hours for all routes.

AND THE REST...

(An arsonist, a slasher out of the '90's, a surfer who trips into killing, a lonely hearts poisoner ... you'll have to play the game, won't'cha?)

(1 edit)

The guide tip is needed: Choose same thing that him in roles, and being Flirty for unlock him.

I got it now, but you need be flirty with him all way, do some dare, and do without saying that it is because him told you for make. Always side with him.

I didn't expect this game to be so amazing. I LOVED IT GREATLY. The voice acting was sooooo good, each character, each personality and thing they did was so interesting and fun, besides, I love how you can interact with the game and the server. I was giggling and kicking my feet at 2 am, I went for Angel (I loved her so much) and replayed her route like 3 times, then I started playing other routes and they were totally amazing!!! I really liked everything, I can't wait for the expanded edition!!!!

ronin foreverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr the glaze is REAL

Omg I have like an OBSSESION with Ronin(AND WITH THIS GAME >3<)- I don't understand why people don't like his voice! it's what makes him- HIM, in my opinion his voice IS FINEEEEEEE (Its hot is what I'm trying to say) but no the characters in this game are so well written I played this game a-couple months ago and it's BEAUTIFUL, the voice actors did amazing!, I love the fact that getting with any of them results in the "Bad ending" because we KNOW it's wrong to get with a serial killer but we do it anyways!, but no this game is amazing! I recommend playing it if you haven't!

I had fun playing the different routes. Each one has a pretty solid storyline. Ronin’s route confused the hell out of me because I couldn’t tell if he was playing me or not until the very last minute, and honestly, that’s great. He’s definitely a challenge. I really liked how you get a bad end if you try to end up with the serial killer, like, yeah, obviously that’s a terrible idea. I also thought it was cool how every month you’re given the choice to leave, even though we all know we’re not gonna do it for the plot. The BGM and sound effects were on point and added so much to the atmosphere. And the voice acting? So good. I loved everyone’s voices, especially V’s. Their voices just felt so natural for their character. Ronin’s voice was a bit on the edgy side for me, but it still worked. And Misaki’s impression of him? Hilarious. I actually laughed. Also, shoutout to quick save. My laptop kept dying while I was playing (my fault for not charging it), and I was scared I’d have to start over, but quick save kept my progress perfectly. Lifesaver, for real.

just finished ronin's route and YOU KNOW i got the bad ending "kiss him". I really love this game, everything from the design of the game itself, to the characters — they are not only well drawn but also well written — is INCREDIBLE. honestly my new hyperfixation lmao. you know the game it's good when it's got you giggling blushing kicking my feet swirling my hair at 3am.

I like this game alot. But...WHY DOES RONIN SOUND LIKE THAT? WHY??? WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY???....ITS JUST....HE SOUNDS LIKE AN EBOY😭 Although in someway he kinda is one. It's just rlly messing wit me 😔</3

This is one of the coolest games ive played. The discord aspect is unique and on point. It's accurate and not to the point of cringe. The characters are adorable. This is honestly super cool. <3

Peak visual novel game.

(+1)

I can't stop giggling trying to play this game!!! Got the """Bad""" Ending with Ronin on first try and it gave me so much joy since I practically chose all the choices based from my real personality, meaning Ronin just loves me like that🤭 Now Imma go chasing his other ending before aiming for """Bad""" Ending with V too!!! Thank you devs for making this game, such a nice and real experience, I've never been more immersed in a visual novel game before!🖤🖤

I am absolutely satisfied with Ronin's bad ending !! Merely bc I'm disgustingly in love with him and understand how he thought process goes ^_^ It was practically a no brainer to be his dog (to some extent). Rlly love the discord layout and the characters !! I had a blast and laughed at how corny some of them are ♡♡♡ Needless to say, fantastic gameplay. Very engaging and intuitive imo. I don't I'd play the other's routes unfortunately. Many loves to the dev and team, you guys rocked ♡♡♡ 

Hello I was wondering if you were looking for translators. I really love Killer Chat and all the characters and would wnat more people to be able to enjoy it like me

I loved these characters so much can we make this a fandom pretty please (ToT) [especially Ronin :3]

this game's writing is so goodwasjhiqdwgskauk

I'm having trouble getting past the customize MC part of the game. For some reason, it lags, and it ONLY lags when I try customizing her. Other parts of the game work just fine, but the customizing part makes my entire computer lag.
