Description
The streets are dangerous. Fear spreads with every body found. In 4 Penny Coffins, one player takes on the role of the Ripper - a demonic murderer with the urge to kill - while others work to uncover the truth before the next murder.
A new take on the typical social deception genre!
Gather evidence from crime scenes, question suspects, track suspicious behavior, and piece together clues. The Ripper must deceive and redirect suspicion while avoiding detection. Investigators must separate fact from fiction before paranoia tears the group apart.
Trust is fragile. Evidence can be faked. And time is not on your side.
Each night follows a deliberate three-phase cycle.
The Ripper hunts. Players investigate. Then, in a formal and organized Conviction phase, evidence is weighed and a verdict is delivered. No endless shouting. No stalled discussions. Every round reaches a resolution.
With dynamic roles and player-driven outcomes, every session unfolds differently. Playable solo or in multiplayer, 4 Penny Coffins blends social deduction with investigative mechanics to create tense, unpredictable matches where trust is earned slowly and lost instantly. Someone will hang for these crimes. Make sure it isn’t you.

User Reviews
Magistrate mode is a really good way to get the hang of the baseline game, ripper mode is extremely fun when you have the people for it. Love the art style and how easy it was to pick up and understand what is going on.
very fun and cool art style yet to see the ripper not sure if he appears on magistrate mode
WARNING WARNING theirs not always people for a server but the game does seem pretty good fromt he lobbys i got into
Did my first night on patrol as a policeman in the game, nearly defficated myself in pure shock and horror when a 6 foot top hat wearing "Thing of unknown nature", produced a subsequently overly large blade, and then proceeded to run at me, never been scared in me life.
The singleplayer/co-op Magistrate mode feels like if Shadows of Doubt was a boring and simplistic free browser game.
The PvP mode is some weird hack together of other social deduction games done in a very awkward and unenjoyable way. Combining things like the Mafia/Werewolf style of games day night cycle, but with free roaming, in a way that just to me feels like mashing two puzzle pieces from different puzzles together
Top it off with a very visually ugly artstyle that both fails to fulfill atmospheric style that its seemingly going for, and actively makes everything hard to read and overwhelming, hard to distinguish and messy, and you have something that feels like it could've been made 10 years ago in a flash player browser game for free
