About the Game
==============
SCP: EVENT CLASSIFIED is a multiplayer horror shooter that allows players to take on a role of a soldier, prisoner, scientist and even a monster. Fight other players or unite with them to survive in this secret facility.  
Every role has its own quests which will inevitably intersect with the quests of others. It is entirely up to the players whether they cooperate or compete.  
Irrespectively of the interactions you had with other people, you will always be haunted by hostile anomalies and dangerous environment.  
**UNIQUE FEATURES**  
*   **TOTAL REPLAYABILITY**  
    Not only is the map reshuffled every round, but so are the items, anomalies and even the roles quests will be different  
*   **SOCIAL STEALTH DISGUISE SYSTEM**  
    You can find clothes or even steal them from another player (possibly dead). Yes, prisoners can disguise themselves as scientists to fool soldiers, etc. But remember, monsters don't care who they kill.  
*   **DYNAMIC ROLES RELATIONSHIP**  
    Each role has its own clothes and its own relationships with other roles. Soldiers will kill prisoners and rescue scientists, monsters will kill everyone, and these rules will change every round.  
*   **MODERATELY HARSH REALISM**  
    Reloading with magazines instead of bullets, a pain scale instead of simple hp numbers, a helmet and a bulletproof vest instead of an armor counter, and other interesting and realistic details. Survival is not going to be so easy. However, properly selected items and tactics will give you the opportunity to get through any obstacles on your way.  
*   **ELECTRICITY SYSTEM**  
    Wanna lock some doors? Or place wiretraps? Maybe open big gates without keycard? Say no more! Just find needed tools and destroy some robot vacuum cleaners, and be sure - fuses can do a lot of things in this facility.  
*   **MONSTERS ARE NOT THE ONLY THREAT**  
    No one wants to be dead, and an traitor can hide behind every corner. Just like you, other players are ready to do anything to survive. Keep your allies close and potential traitors even closer.
