## About Killer Frequency

Killer Frequency is a first-person horror puzzle adventure developed and published by Team17, released in 2023 at a price of $7.49 USD. Set in a small-town American radio station during 1987, the game casts players as a late-night DJ managing emergency calls while a killer stalks the townsfolk. The simulation-style gameplay centers on a radio-operator mechanic, with players navigating dialogue-driven choices, quick-time events, environmental interactions, and a paper-ball minigame to keep the show running under pressure. Reviewers highlight that the 80s aesthetic and soundtrack create strong nostalgia, while players describe the radio-host premise as fresh and unexpected. Players note that environmental interactions add meaningful depth and that story choices meaningfully alter outcomes. The game runs as playable on Steam Deck, supports solo play only, and holds a 93% positive rating from 3,531 Steam reviews.
