About Killer Chat! - Original Edition

✦ AI summary

Killer Chat! - Original Edition is a satirical dating sim where you play a writer who infiltrates a serial killer chatroom under false pretenses, navigating suspicious conversations and romantic entanglements with four murderous love interests across branching story paths. Blend dark humor with genuine relationship-building through chat messages, voice calls, and choice-driven narrative as you gather research for your book while trying not to become the next body count.

After asking too many murder-related questions online (for your book), you get an invite to a... serial killer chatroom?! What the...?Killer Chat! Original Edition brings the award-winning satirical serial killer dating chatsim you know and love to Steam (Public Favorite & Honorable Mention, Spooktober Jam 2024). Play as a (customisable!) writer as you 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. 

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 screwed.

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. 
  • 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? 
  • Oh shit, he's hot. And she's hot. 
  • Maybe you can… date… some murderers? What even is your life.

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.

What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

Killer Chat! - Original Edition has appealing character design and an intriguing premise about a writer infiltrating a serial killer discord server, though players are divided on execution. Common complaints center on inconsistent voice acting quality, pacing issues with time skips, and the game feeling more like a discord simulator than traditional visual novel dialogue, though some praise the innovative discord-style design and character writing. Most players recommend trying the free version first before committing to purchases.

Not recommended Oct 7, 2026
I’m so so glad I didn’t buy any of the DLCs before trying the free version. I got sucked in because of the eye catching UI and character design, the plot of a writer joining a server for serial killers also sounded really interesting. Unfortunately, the voice acting ranged from fine to extremely cringe to the point where I wanted to mute. It didn’t help that the game was more of a discord simulator than most chatism that rely on one-on-one conversations, complete with the annoying shenanigans you see in servers with established groups where you’re forced to be at the end of their unfunny jokes and dynamics. Even in the one to one conversation the writing didn’t really grab me, certainly not enough to get through my complaints. The pacing was also all over the place with the time skips, maybe there’s better writing hidden in the numerous paid DLCs but I’m not interested enough to find out rn.

Really enjoyed it. I played through one ending (V's "bad" ending") in one sitting and will probably play through the other endings as well. Really recommend this game:)

Lovely art style, and really interesting concept and design.

I really applaud the game design. Putting what is basically discord in the game is honestly sick as ♥♥♥♥, and it compelled me to finish playing the most. that being said.. i did not like the voice acting for V and Ronin. I really like their characterization otherwise, and i liked the rest of the voice cast!
