Panic Ritual is a horror-themed, objective-based Hide and Seek game, inspired loosely by Stop it Slender and Capture the Flag. It has jumpscare sounds and other horror-themed elements and sounds. It can be played on any map, but is better in atmospheric maps like abandoned hospitals or mansions. Maps with multiple ways of getting around are preferred. I recommend this map (TTT Hyde St. Station). Gamemode best suitable for 5-8 players. Requires at least 2.

What lurks in the fog ...
You and a group of people are gathered for a special occassion, but someone among you has been messing with things beyond their understanding prior to your arrival. You feel the presence of a demonic entity moving around you, but you cannot see it ... until the whole world shakes and your vision turns red and foggy! You know without a doubt you are being hunted!

The Gamemode
1 player becomes the Demon and starts invisible during pre-round in which they must position 3 Ritual Circles far from each other around the map. Once all 3 have been positioned, the main round begins and turns the map into a dark, red-fogged version of itself. The 3 Circles are now visible to the Humans, the remaining players, and they must find and collect the Dolls that appear on the Circles and cleanse them by bringing them to the other Circles and then back to its Home Circle. They must tread carefully though, as the Demon has fully materialized too and is on the hunt to kill all Humans before they can cleanse the Dolls!

The Demon can see through the Fog and knows the status of all Circles he placed, but must otherwise seek for the Humans who'd best be sneaking around and trying not to get spotted. The Demon's attacks let it enter Void Form, in which it does not collide with Humans. Exiting Void Form while inside a Human rips their soul free from their body, killing them. If the Humans can manage to complete 2 out of the 3 Circles, they will be able to get Charged Dolls at the completed ones - the only weapon that can harm the Demon!

- Corner Peeking: Peek around corners without exposing yourself to determine if it's safe to move
- Stamina: You walk slower, but run faster than the Demon - Spot him and run away!
- Tension: You get on edge when the Demon is looking your direction, letting you know danger is approaching
- Insanity: Your vision gets swirly as you look directly at the Demon, even beyond the fog
- Doll Eyes: The eyes of the Doll you're carrying burns with an evil flame the closer you are to the Demon
- Doll Whispers: The Doll whispers to you more the closer you are to a cleansable Circle

Demon Abilities
- Fog: A thick red Fog severely limits the vision of the Humans, however you can see through it
- Void Form: Your attacks bring you into your Void Form where you do not collide with other players. Exit Void Form while inside a Human to kill him!

To me, this is worth the download just for the keeper Player models, so that you so much for that.
