Watch the full reveal trailer for 12-player murder mystery It Was You
Deduce the killer or frame your friends in a Halloween party that's both a trick and a treat!
Salt Lake City, USA, February 25th, 2025 - Snowfall Games has unveiled the first full trailer for their upcoming multiplayer murder mystery game, It Was You as part of IGN Fan Fest 2025. Catch the first glimpse of this murder mystery-themed Halloween party, where 5-12 players will be given a role—detective or killer—and tools to manipulate, uncover, or plant evidence. Deduce the murderer or sow discord amongst your fellow party attendees when It Was You launches on Steam later this year.
Detectives have a range of tools at their disposal to uncover the truth—whether it's using a magnifying glass to trace footprints, a blacklight to reveal hidden blood splatters, or even a lie detector to expose a suspect's role. Meanwhile, killers rely on deception, using items like a spray bottle to erase their fingerprints or tape to plant someone else's. They can even drag a body into a closet, hoping it remains undiscovered. At any moment, players can call for a discussion and vote to exile whoever they believe is guilty.
Acoustic proximity voice chat introduces lifelike reverberation and occlusion, causing voices to echo in the long corridors of the Tylock Estate. When a player enters a room and shuts the door, conversations from outside are naturally muffled, adding an unprecedented degree of immersion. To execute the perfect murder, killers must ensure the door is closed and no one is around —or risk detectives overhearing the victim's scream echoing through the halls.
Every party feels alive with the addition of non-player guests. Killers must eliminate these NPCs first, creating a buffer that allows real players to investigate and participate in the narrative of every game before they risk becoming victims.
About Snowfall Games: Snowfall Games started during the 2020 global pandemic when lifelong friends Austin and Jaden, stuck at home, saw a gap in the social deduction genre—one that craved deeper gameplay, stunning visuals, and a true murder mystery theme. Having spent their childhood creating—building elaborate Halloween experiences for neighborhood kids, designing firework displays in Roller Coaster Tycoon, and learning game engines—they turned their passion into careers. Jaden made his mark developing Marine Arena 2, one of StarCraft 2's most-played mods, and later worked on Hogwarts Legacy, New World, and Lost Ark. Meanwhile, Austin blended his computer science expertise with self-taught artistry, mastering 3D modeling and rendering to bring their vision to life. From two developers to a full-fledged team, Snowfall has spent four years driven by passion, countless late nights, and relentless ambition—culminating in its first game, It Was You.
