About House of Hazards

House of Hazards is a chaotic local multiplayer party game where you and your friends race to complete ordinary household tasks while trying to eliminate each with traps. Up to four players share the same keyboard, frantically moving through different rooms to make coffee, grab a snack, or water the plants before anyone else does.

The twist is that the players who aren't currently completing a task get to control the house's hazards. They can drop lamps, fire toasters, and swing doors to knock the active player out of the round. The winner of the match is the first person to successfully complete their assigned tasks and reach the exit.

Controls

  • Player 1: W, A, D to move and jump; S to crouch or interact with tasks.
  • Player 2: Arrow Keys to move and jump; Down Arrow to crouch or interact.
  • Player 3 and 4: Check the in-game settings for custom keybindings.
  • Controlling Traps: When you are out of turn, press your assigned interact key to trigger traps as your opponent walks past them.

Tips

  • Learn the trap timing: Traps have a slight delay before they activate. Anticipate where your opponent is going and trigger the hazard just before they enter its path.
  • Use crouch to survive: Crouching can save you from high-swinging obstacles like lamps and flying toast.
