About Buried Whispers
As an innocent, find and capture crystals to complete a demonic ritual. But be careful. Secret moles are trying to stop you at all costs.
As a mole, secretly prevent the completion of the ritual by killing and sabotaging the innocents.
Talk to your friends using proximity voice chat. Enjoy hilarious voice effects, muffling, wobbling, and dynamic reverb that changes with room size. Optimized for maximum funniness.
Explore and dig tunnels through an infinite number of fully destructible, randomly generated caves and never lose the sense of discovery.
Sacrifice your own health to cast as many votes as you want. Bluff about your votes and catch the others off-guard. How much risk are you willing to take?
Anyone can kill anyone. Think you know who the mole is? Do the dirty work yourself. Explode them, stab them, and even... drug them?
Show up to meetings naturally, instead of being teleported intrusively. But don't be late. Sluggishness is a death sentence. Skip meetings entirely and fake your death by using a gasmask and throw off the group.
Feature:
