The same odd, social panic I get at arriving at a party that's already in full swing (I don't know why, but I just shivered at the thought) settled over me as I watched my character wander the room.


Most of those have tells, like an animation being played or a sound file activating, though some are invisible and rely on pure deduction to uncover.Īt first I found playing the spy unfathomably tense. His job is to blend into the gathering that the sniper is peering at, while secretly performing the tasks. But he's also seducing people, moving bugs, and contacting double agents. The spy, meanwhile, is having a wonderful time: chatting to partygoers, cadging drinks, and admiring the decor. He has one bullet to kill the spy, so has to be sure. It's a 1v1 asymmetrical multiplayer game where the sniper watches a party through his scope. New people? We'd be in a similar situation of fumbling about in Spy Party's psychologically driven multiplayer. But the recent paid-for open beta made me reconsider. What if I never won a match? What would that say about me as a human being? This was a strange thing to bump up against, and I dealt with it by fleeing away from the established little community that the game had built up.

I'm comfortable with learning game mechanics, but putting my understanding of humanity out there left me feeling uneasy. It's about recognising the humanity in someone desperately attempting to hide it. Though it's ostensibly about sniping and spying, it's not really about those. It was the panic I was feeling over becoming a Spy Party player that was causing me to leave. Those cold digits spilling over your screen as you search for a flaw wouldn't have registered the truth of the situation: I am a coward. This pattern would be repeated a few times. He'd see me arriving, spending a minute in the lobby, then disconnecting.
