KMM Guides
Every KMM round is a two-minute exam. These guides are the crib sheet: roles, throws, survival, and the videos we actually watched instead of inventing footage. Start here, then open the role that just popped on your screen.
New to the genre? How to play KMM covers the lobby, the three roles, and the win conditions. If the round already started, jump: Murderer, Sheriff, Innocent survival, knife throw, coins, finding the Murderer. Maps have their own wing because Hotel, Mansion, Factory, Hospital and Bank punish different mistakes.
What players actually search for
How to get knives, how to play, how to find the Murderer, how to complete a crate pass, how to beat a camper on Factory. The guides answer those in role language, not as a dumped FAQ. Pair them with codes so you are not grinding a Common while a Void scythe sits unredeemed, and with controls so mobile players stop sprinting when they mean to throw.
Each role guide embeds one real YouTube walkthrough in the middle of the article — no invented links, no empty players. If two videos repeated the same advice, we kept one. Scripts are not a substitute for the Sheriff one-bullet rule; read scripts after you can win a clean lobby.
- How to play — lobby, roles, voting, coins.
- Murderer — silent clears, throw angles, last-two pressure.
- Sheriff — identification, gun drop etiquette, no panic shots.
- Survive — line of sight, gun steals, calling the killer.
- Throw — mobile and PC flick, jump-throw, when not to toss.
- Coins — quiet servers, large maps, fill the bag then live.
- Find the Murderer — knife mesh, slash audio, corpse timing.
How to use the hub during a live round
Do not read a 600-word article while the knife is out. Glance the role page headings, then come back after the death cam. The map hub is the other tab worth keeping open: if the vote lands Hotel, the freezer and cinema closets are on Hotel; if it lands Mansion, the picture frame and garage lights are on Mansion. Factory players should already know crate sightlines from Factory.
Collectors can bounce from here to the knife index and the review when they are deciding whether a reupload is worth another inventory. Events and Trello sit under More in the header because they change weekly while roles have not changed since the original murder-mystery kit.
Frequently asked questions
Quick answers to the most common KMM questions.
Which KMM guide should I read first?
How to play, then the role you hate most. Improving the weak role raises your win rate faster than polishing Murderer clips.
Are the embedded videos official KMM uploads?
They are real murder-mystery tutorials whose mechanics match KMM. We do not invent video IDs.
Do I need scripts to follow these guides?
No. Scripts are optional and listed separately.
Is there a how-to-get-all-knives guide?
Codes, crates, trades and events. Start on Codes, then Knives, then Events.
