How it plays
Every round assigns roles at random, so a friend might be a prisoner trying to escape, a guard, a scientist or one of the monsters hunting everyone.
Proximity voice chat leads to tense deals and betrayals.
Friends usually play on the same public server, which means mixing with strangers.
