Murder is a free online stealth game where your goal is to secretly stab the king, steal his crown, and rule-at least until someone tries to do the same to you. Developed by indie studio Studio Seufz, this addictive browser game mixes slapstick humor with tense timing.

With simple one-button controls and a fun king-swapping mechanic, Murder has gone viral across platforms, racking up over 200 million plays. Whether you're sneaking behind the throne or defending it, Murder delivers quick, clever gameplay that's perfect for short sessions and full of surprises.

How to Play Murder

Whether you're sneaking or ruling, the controls are super simple:

  • As the assassin: Hold the Spacebar (or mouse button) to raise your knife slowly. Release if the king turns around.
  • As the king: Tap the Spacebar to look behind and catch suspicious movements quickly.

The game is all about timing. Hold too long? You'll get caught. Don't look back in time? You're done for.
