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
girlsserial 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
pseudoserial killer you are...)
- Four
serial killerslove 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.
CONTENT WARNINGS:
Death, murder, references to abuse, and serial killers... ... but you knew that.
MEET THE SERIALS!
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?)

first playthru and I GOT MISAKI'S GOOD ENDING AWWW SHE'S SO ADORABLEE!!! anyway im ready to cry cause my friend who recommended this to me told me there was bad endings for all of them..
It's SO over for me, I love V so much 😭
Guys how do I make the pookie sunset slasher like me :<
I wish there would be a mobile version bc now im just watching yt T^T (LOVE THE ART STYLE)
jusst finished my first playthrough of this game! it so good, im about to play it again rn!!!
this game is genuinely so addicting AHHHHH i need to get all the endings
does angel not have a good ending? all i found on youtube was her bad ending and i already got that one
she does have a good ending!!
The best visual novel i have played, bro this style is soo fckg good. You art is like a dream.
i love this so much; it was impossible to not fall in love with everyone <3
I'm in love with V sm but i need to know how to get good ending because I dont wanna call police on him T-T
HI!! if you still need help, try to drop as many hints that your NOT an actual serial killer (not making a name and NOT telling him is a good thing), then there should be some dialogue you need to correctly pick in order to vouch for V ( ◡̀_◡́)ᕤ!!
Thanks u!! :3
Aw man I thought I would get an ending where Ronin actually kills me but I got forced to call the cops at the end😤 I had so much fun Playing this gamee
I'd kill (pun intended) for endings with each route where they end up killing the player ngl
i love ronin so much but thats besides the point. i would really love to see a route where the player does become a serial killer-- i think it would fit most with a ronin route or a V route as player could be enthralled by ronin and start killing with or because of him, and a V route because player would agree with his morals
it’s already a planned dlc for expanded edition! https://store.steampowered.com/app/3866420/Killer_Chat_Expanded_Edition__Killing_Spree_DLC/?curator_clanid=45535711

the original edition is already released if you want the full (original) game, the expanded demo is only the demo for the expanded version (hence demo ending).

Are you looking for Turkish localization specialist?
what did i just play...HOW DO I GET THE KISS RONIN ENDING
WOWWW i can't wait to tryyyy is it full game tho
oh my GAWWWDDDD I FREAKING LOOVE MISAKI OMFG
I wouldn't consider it the best one but still would recommend it. The environment created might very well be unparalleled in visual novels.
However I find the characters monolithic and uninspired. I guess that's a plus for the creators as I have no interest in extra adventures with them in Text Generation UI etc.
I've lost interest in people, too. The secret boards are all there, I can have the environment right now. But like the MC in question I'm never quite like the others.
Omg, I love V! (spoilers) Why did my baby boy have to be taken away? 😭
I loved
I love V so much bro 😭😭
AHHHH I LOVE RONIN
Please make for Android 💔!
