Steps
Understand the game. In these games, everyone has a role; they can be an Innocent, a Sheriff, or a Murderer. There will be one Murderer and one Sheriff per game, and the rest are Innocents. The goal is for the Sheriff to catch and shoot the Murderer, while the Innocents have to stay alive.
Understand the role of the Innocents. The Innocents try to survive the Murderer and try to help out the Sheriff. If the Sheriff dies, Innocents can pick up the Sheriff's gun where they died and kill the murderer, meaning the game can still be won.
Understand the role of the Sheriff. As a Sheriff, your goal is to try to shoot the Murderer before he kills everyone - including you.
Understand the role of the Murderer. As a Murderer, you try to kill everybody, even the Sheriff. Be careful of the Sheriff, though, or you'll be shot.
Playing as an Innocent
Find out who's the Murderer and the Sheriff. Try to stay near people, but not too close to them. If the Murderer takes out their knife, run. Go to where the Sheriff is and tell him/her the Murderer or where a murder occurred.
Stay near the Sheriff. In case they die, if you're near them, you have the chance to take the gun. You might kill the Murderer with the Sheriff's gun. Try not to follow the Sheriff, though, because this might make the sheriff think that you're the murderer.
Beware of a Murderer's perks. You might see someone taking out what looks to be a gun, but it could be a knife. If you see the murderer's hand, looking like he/she is about to throw it, try to avoid it. In any Murder games, these Perks are found in Shops. Try to avoid these Perks from the Murderer.
Find the Sheriff's gun. If the Sheriff dies, try to find the gun while trying to avoid the Murderer. Sometimes, the murderer will hang around the gun (otherwise known as camping). If that happens, don't get the gun; try to survive the round until the time is over.
Camp Around. Only brave souls don't camp around, but if you have a weak soul, camp around. Find a safe spot for you to hide and a way to escape. Camping also is known as hiding, it can sometimes help many people.
Identify the Murderer. Sometimes, Murderers have knives, effects or guns that can help you to recognize them, like a Murderer that has a boombox. This can also help you when you're a sheriff.
Identify perks. Murderers sometimes have perks that they use for their own benefit, but you can maybe know if they have it. Murderers who have a fake gun will point their gun down, not ahead.
Don't follow the Sheriff or block them while they’re shooting. The Sheriff is trying to shoot someone; if you try to follow them while they’re shooting, they can accidentally kill you or miss the opportunity to shoot the Murderer and be killed, along with you.
Alert the sheriff who's the murderer. You can help the sheriff kill the murderer and win the round.
Playing as a Sheriff
Learn about your surroundings. You have to know everything around you; pay attention to people and your surroundings. If you don't do this, you might miss who the Murderer is and they will kill you before you can even kill them.
Travel in groups. Stay near people but not too close, and pay attention to the people around you. If anyone is coming right to you, run away, but don't take out your gun yet. If the person who is chasing you takes out their knife, take out your gun and try to shoot. If you miss, retreat to a group of people and try to shoot from there but be careful not to shoot the innocents.
Hide your gun. When the round starts, don't immediately take your gun out - you have to be sneaky. Wait and see who's the Murderer; if you see a murder happen, remember their face, clothing, or name and run away, or stand in a position where you can kill the Murderer without getting killed. Now, take out your gun and kill them. You can also run away from the Murderer and then take out your gun. After that, you can wait for the Murderer to come, or, alternatively, look for them.
Not the Innocents! Many beginners do this but you are not allowed to shoot random people. You must find the actual murderer and shoot them. If you shoot random people, both you and the innocent you shot will die.
Watch out for the scanners! It can go red if you have a gun or a knife. If it goes red, the murderer can know who the Sheriff is. (Only the bank map)
Caught red-handed! Those scanners are also helpful. Whoever touches the scanner and it turns red, is the murderer. (Only the bank map)
Write down the innocents. When you hear a murder going on, write down the names of people around you. This can help you know they are innocent. If you keep adding innocents to your list, you can begin to rule out people and reveal the murderer. (A murderer can be someone that you haven't seen in all the rooms you watched.)
Secretly spy on people. A good way to know if a player is a murderer is if they show their knife. If you see a person killing others, then be ready to attack.
Playing as a Murderer
Identify the Sheriff. To win as the murderer, you must know the Sheriff first. The Sheriff is the main victim in the game. If you don't kill the Sheriff, they will kill you. Always remember - the Sheriff is your biggest enemy in the game.
Hide your knife! When the game begins, don't take your knife out; if you do, the innocents will see it and will report you to the sheriff. Rather, if you see the Sheriff, wait until you get near them, take out your knife, and quickly kill them.
Protect the gun. When you kill the Sheriff, protect the gun from the innocents. If you don't protect it, the Innocents will get it and will have a chance to kill you. Stay near the gun but don’t stay around too long in order to prevent others from getting to it. If you do so, this will annoy the innocents and they will call you a camper.
Kill and Go. If time runs out and you hadn't expected your sheriff, you can start killing the innocent one-on-one secretly. You can also just kill whoever is in your way. Lastly, if you are not brave enough, just wait till the time runs out.
Caution! Don't touch the scanners, it can reveal you as a murderer. (Only the bank map)
Watch and listen. Make sure you listen to all the scanners. It might turn red and reveal your sheriff. (Only the bank map)
Kill secretly! Explore the map so you know exits and hideaways. Search for people who are alone in a room or who are AFK. When you kill someone, make it quick and sharp. ALWAYS put your knife away after killing someone!
Play the innocent role. Act and pretend that you are innocent. Some ways are like collecting coins. When someone comes near you, jump and run. In the chat, you can say "Help!", "Run!", " :O"..etc. But don't make it too obvious.
