Fun Among Us-Like Game for Death Note Fans, but Needs RefinementIf you’ve watched Death Note and enjoy social deduction games, Death Note: A Killer Within offers an engaging experience. The core gameplay brings an Among Us-style twist with a Death Note theme, making for some intense and strategic moments. However, there are a couple of notable drawbacks that could use improvement:Match Termination Issue: Currently, if any player leaves during a match, the game immediately ends, which can be frustrating.Kira Role Problem: If you are playing as Kira and pass off the Death Note, there is a chance that the Kira follower may be unable to use it effectively. This can hinder the gameplay dynamic.Quality of Life SuggestionsMore Maps: As of now, the game only offers one map. Introducing additional maps would greatly enhance replayability and keep the experience fresh.More Roles and Modes: New roles or game modes could also add variety and depth, encouraging players to stay engaged longer.Visuals and PresentationThis is just my personal opinion, but for a less graphics-heavy game, I would have loved to see smoother, cleaner, high-definition character models. The menus could also benefit from more polish, perhaps taking inspiration from the modern Persona games with their stylish and immersive interfaces. Lastly, an improved original soundtrack (OST) would enhance the atmosphere.Overall, I hope Death Note: A Killer Within gets continued support and doesn’t become a dead game in a few weeks. It has great potential if these issues are addressed.
