Early Access Is Here! New Solo Faction, 4 New Roles, Phones & More

Hey everyone! 👋

First of all, thank you to everyone who played our demo and shared feedback with us over the past few months.

Every bug report, suggestion, and discussion helped us improve diffiCULT. We're a team of four indie developers from Turkey, and seeing so many people try our game and support us has meant the world to us.

Today is a huge milestone for us.

diffiCULT is now available in Early Access!

To celebrate, we're launching with our biggest update yet.

A Brand New Faction: Solo

Until now, every match revolved around the battle between the Town and the Cult.

Not anymore.

We're introducing a brand new faction: Solo.

Solo roles don't belong to any team. Each one has its own unique objective, creating even more unpredictable matches where nobody can be completely sure who's on their side.

The first two Solo roles are:

😈 Satan

A dangerous role with its own unique win condition. Sometimes the biggest threat isn't the Cult...

🎭 Jester

Convince the Town to execute you, and you'll have the last laugh.

Four New Roles

Alongside the new Solo faction, we've added four new playable roles:

  • ☎️ Operator (Town)

  • 🤫 Silencer (Cult)

  • 🎭 Jester (Solo)

  • 😈 Satan (Solo)

Each one introduces brand new mechanics and strategies to every match.

Telephones

Every house now has a telephone.

Each night, every player can call one other player using filtered voice chat.

These conversations open the door to secret alliances, fake information, private negotiations, and plenty of opportunities to lie.

The Operator takes this mechanic even further.

Instead of making just one call, the Operator can call as many players as they want during the night, making them the communication expert of the Town.

Meet the Silencer

The Cult has also gained a powerful new role.

While making a phone call, the Silencer can activate the Silence ability.

Any player affected won't be able to speak during the next Discussion and Voting phases.

Sometimes the strongest argument... is making sure nobody else gets to speak.

Arcade Machines

Not every night has to be spent waiting.

We've added Arcade Machines to every house.

Players can now spend the night playing mini games while waiting for the next phase.

Current games include:

  • 🃏 Blackjack

  • 🏓 Ping Pong

They're completely optional, but they make downtime a lot more fun when you're waiting for the action to begin.

More To Come

This is just the beginning of our Early Access journey.

We already have plenty of new roles, mechanics, and features planned, and we'll continue improving diffiCULT based on your feedback.

If you've been following the game since the demo, thank you for believing in us.

If you're joining us for the first time...

Welcome to the village.

Trust no one. 🔥
