How to Play Texas Chainsaw Massacre Game
Texas Chain Saw Massacre is an asymmetrical multiplayer game, meaning there will be an odd number of players in each game. Much like other multiplayer horror games, there are fewer killers than victims. The killers will have to attempt to hunt down all the victims and hinder them from escaping.
Texas Chainsaw Massacre How Many Players?
Each round of Texas Chainsaw Massacre will allow7 players to join in total. There will be a3v4 ratio, with three members of the slashing family on the prowl and four victims trying to escape them. Although this may seem like the victims will have an advantage, it also makes it harder for them to stay inconspicuous and out of the killers' view.

All characters in Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Despite there being a 3v4 ratio, there are still plenty of options for characters to choose from on both sides, and all characters will play differently. Each character has their own unique abilities, meaning your playstyle can be completely different from someone else’s. Here’s a quick look at all the available characters and their special skills below:
Killers
The killers are the obvious villains of the game. Their main goal each round is to make as much trouble for the victim as possible and keep them from escaping. Their special abilities and skills revolve around tracking and hunting down the victims and making it impossible for them to get out alive. They also have attributes that can be leveled up in their skill trees to make them more proficient in different sadistic activities as well:Savagery,Harvesting, andEndurance.
Victims
The victims of the game are the ones attempting to escape the clutches of the slashers on the prowl. Their main goal is to escape alive by any means possible. They will need to be as stealthy as possible and work together to avoid the killers. They also have attributes that can be leveled up in skill trees:Toughness,Endurance,Strength,Proficiency, andStealth. Each character also has a special ability and skills that can give them an edge, much like the killers.
Any of the characters' skills and attributes can be changed through the skill tree or as equipped and built by each player. That means you’re able to change up the way the character plays in-game, working more proficiently on each diverse map or paired better with whoever is with you.
