Overview
A simple guide to help kick-start your bluffing career
Introduction
Devil’s Bluff is an 11v1 scavenger hunt game where there is 11 survivors and a single devil. The object of the game is to either work together with others to figure out who the devil is, or finish the scavenger hunt. Or, if you’re the devil you could always murder everybody.
This guide will hopefully clear up some of the early confusion for beginners and help them jump into the heat of things a little bit faster.

Survivors
The survivors. Work together with everybody to find out who the devil is and capture him, or with your partner to finish the scavenger hunt.
There are several traps throughout the mansion to drop your HP down making it easier for the devil to finish you off. The devil can hit you for 50% of your HP, so if you’re below half health you’d best stay with somebody unless you want to get picked off.
- Finish the scavenger hunt: You and your partner (if you have one) can work together to find where the clues are.
- Capture the devil: The devil, he’s tough. I don’t recommend taking him on alone, if you try to capture the devil yourself, things most likely won’t work in your favour.
I’d also like to mention that if you win the scavenger hunt, you and your partner win.
But if you work together to capture the devil, everybody wins. So get to hog-tying. And besides, the devil looks super cute when he’s tied up, poke him and stuff.
The Devil
The devil can explore the mansion a lot faster than survivors. He runs faster, and he has a couple of tools at his disposal such as the:
The skeleton key can open any door or side passage without having to find a button or switch to do so, he can also do it from any side of said door. Only down-side is you have to be transformed in order to use it.
The pitchfork does massive damage, along with being the only attack that can lower player HP. A single attack from the devil will deal 50% damage to your life bar. This is supposed to promote more teamwork-based play and make the devil a hell of a lot scarier.
The devil can instantly teleport into the bunker’s camera room to spy on survivors through a hidden camera system in the mansion through a gargoyle statue. This can be done by going through the main hallways to the middle or “Slapfight Central.” This isn’t exactly a super-power however as you must be in slapfight central in order to teleport, and you also must be transformed. That and the survivors can find their way into the room pretty quickly.
Now, onto ways to win.
- Play the game normally, give up your career in murder and soul-snatching and relax with friends
- After killing people you can take their items they drop, but you can’t be transformed if you want to pick them up.
Simple enough, right?
Scavenger Hunt Items
I don’t want to spoil all the fun so I’ll try to keep this simple
The clues to find the items consist of two parts, a location and an item. ex:
Swords and shields and axes to boot, you’ll find me stuffed, fluffy and cute.
“Swords and shields and axes to boot” This would be the main hallway
“you’ll find me stuffed, fluffy and cute” This is the Plush Cat item
Master the layout of the mansion, and you’ll soon master the hunt.
Closing
This is my first guide, like, ever. I apologise for spelling errors and failed formatting as I’m super lazy and don’t like writing.
Guide may not be super great but I hope I somewhat helped a bluffer out!
