## About killer7

killer7 is a linear action shooter with surreal narrative and political satire, originally released in 2018. Developed by Grasshopper Manufacture and Engine Software, the game tasks players with guiding Harman Smith, a man who manifests seven distinct personalities, through a campaign to stop the sinister Kun Lan. The game features character-switching mechanics that let players cycle through the different assassins, environmental storytelling that enriches the experience, and light-gun style combat encounters. Players describe the experience as atmospheric, emotional, and unsettling, with reviewers highlighting how the soundtrack enhances the mood and the narrative structure stands apart from typical shooters. Available for $9.99, it runs verified on Steam Deck and holds a 93% positive rating from over 2,600 Steam reviews. The challenging medium-length campaign is solo-only.
