How to Play Survive a Psycho

  • Survivors: Stay alive until the three-minute timer expires, or defeat the Psycho.
  • Psycho: Eliminate every survivor before time runs out.
  • After death: Use the arrows beside the spectator target’s name to switch survivors, or select EXIT to leave spectating. The round continues while survivors remain.
  • Revive: When REVIVE is offered, it provides a paid return to the current round. Offers include 40 or 49 Robux; use the price displayed on your button.

Survive a Psycho PC Controls and Camera Settings

With Smart SMG or AJAX equipped on PC:

Input Action
Left click Fire
Right click Aim
R Reload
V Switch weapon view
F Inspect

At an interactive door, press E for the displayed OPEN or CLOSE action. With Smart SMG equipped, V can switch to first person; this is separate from the Shift Lock setting.

Classes

Classes
Weak marked EQUIPPED beside an EMPTY EQUIP slot in the Classes menu.

Survive a Psycho Classes, Loadouts and Storage Slots

To switch to a saved class:

  1. Open CLASSES in the lobby.
  2. Select EQUIP on the class card you want.
  3. Confirm EQUIPPED on its card and the intended name under CURRENT CLASS.

Extra storage has slot-specific prices. One locked-slot offer costs 1,500 Cash or 113 Robux; a separately labeled SLOT 3 costs 4,000 Cash. Read the offer attached to the slot you want rather than applying one price to every slot.

Survive a Psycho Class Spins: Free Rolls, Odds and Costs

  • Normal roll: Spend one stored normal spin or 2,500 Cash through CLASSES.
  • Free spins: Like the game and join its group for one free spin. Another free spin is offered every 10 minutes.
  • Confirm the result: Wait for YOU ROLLED, then check CURRENT CLASS and EQUIPPED. Names flashing through the animation are not separate rewards, and duplicate results still consume a spin.
  • Mythic odds: 1% per normal spin is the rarity-tier chance, not a named class’s individual chance. It does not guarantee a Mythic on roll 100.

Use available free normal spins before spending Cash if preserving your balance is the priority.

Maine's Equip button in the Classes menu

Survive a Psycho Maine Guide: Zhuo, Psychosis and Berserk

With Maine equipped, press G for Psychosis to activate Berserk, then keep moving and firing Kang Tao Zhuo.

In the Street Station Maine/Zhuo setup, the active buff lists:

  • Damage taken: 65% less.
  • Movement speed: 55% more.
  • Zhuo fire rate: 1.6×, with NO RELOAD.

One activation lasted approximately seven seconds; follow the Berserk countdown separately from Psychosis’s cooldown. When Berserk ends, Zhuo returns to its normal two-round firing and reload cycle.

Weapons

Survive a Psycho Weapons: Gun Prices and Loadout Choices

ARMORY → GUN SHOP lists these gun purchases:

Gun Price
Crusher 2,500 Cash
AJAX 4,000 Cash
Defender 5,500 Cash
Nekomata 7,000 Cash

Keep your equipped Smart SMG to save Cash. Crusher has the lowest purchase price among these four guns; higher prices alone do not establish greater damage or better overall performance.

Smart SMG selected in GUN SHOP, with four upgrade rows, Cash prices and one green segment per row.

Survive a Psycho Smart SMG Upgrades: Prices and Priorities

With Smart SMG selected and one green segment plus four unlit segments in each upgrade row, the quotes are:

Attribute Price
Fire Rate 900 Cash
Range 1,000 Cash
Damage 1,200 Cash
Mag 1,500 Cash
  • Smallest immediate expense: Choose Fire Rate at this menu state.
  • Reloads interrupt clear shooting opportunities: Prioritize Mag for longer firing stretches.

These are quotes for that configuration. Budget later upgrades from their new displayed prices rather than treating these amounts as fixed costs at every stage.

Killers

Survive a Psycho Adam Smasher Guide

As Adam Smasher, follow visible red survivor outlines through connected rooms, corridors and stairs. An outline behind a wall gives you a location cue; find a passable route and track changes in elevation.

PC input Action
Click Backhand

V Crush
F Launch

Activate Sandy when available and watch the SANDEVISTAN meter while continuing the chase. Use each attack’s current cooldown display to decide what is ready.

Survive a Psycho Capri Killer Guide: Car and Satellite

As Psycho Capri in Street Station, use Shift — Overdrive on PC to approach survivors along the streets, then click — Redline to attack nearby targets.

When Satellite is ready and clear of NO SIGNAL:

  1. Press R to enter the SAT-07 overhead feed.
  2. Use A/D or the on-screen arrows to switch survivors; check the selected name and position.
  3. Click DROP or press R again to execute the strike.
  4. Resume ground pursuit when control returns, checking the remaining survivors and skill cooldowns.

How to Survive Adam Smasher in Survive a Psycho

  • Maintain group fire: Shoot Adam with nearby survivors while backing away as he approaches. Keep an exit available.
  • Move during reloads: Change position through an adjacent room or shelving lane, then resume shooting when you have space.
  • Change floors when pressured: If injured or closely pursued, continue through connected rooms and take the stairs. Walls and doors do not guarantee protection from attacks.
  • Use the clock: When little time remains, extend the chase rather than risking your life to finish Adam’s health bar. Surviving until the timer expires also wins.

How to Survive Capri: Clones, Orbital Strike and the Chip

  • Focus the real Capri: Attack with other survivors while backing away; retreat toward nearby buildings during reloads. Capri-shaped red clones are ineffective shooting targets, but red coloration alone does not identify a clone.
  • Leave Orbital Strike rings: At a red ground circle and IMPACT warning, move outside the boundary immediately. Keep watching for successive markers as you move, then resume shooting after the impact. Berserk does not make it safe to remain in the ring.
  • Take the chip after a knockdown: Once Capri is down, you can pull her chip. Its holder might become the next Capri; holding it does not guarantee that role.

Abilities & Status Effects

Abilities & Status Effects
HIDDEN and +5 HP/S above the ability bar while firing from street smoke.

Survive a Psycho Abilities and Survivor Skill Guide

On PC, match the names on your current skill bar. Smoke and the Shock/Blackout/Car Crash combination belong to separate loadouts.

  • Smoke — G when equipped: Activate it, enter the smoke and look for HIDDEN / +5 HP/S. While that status is active inside the smoke, recover 5 HP per second and continue shooting or reloading. Visible smoke alone does not mean healing is still active.
  • Shock — Z in the disruption loadout: Face an available combat target and activate Shock. Follow the SHORT CIRCUIT upload and execution feedback; the affected killer can enter a slowed state.
  • Blackout — X in that loadout: Temporarily interfere with selected killer abilities while continuing gunfire through visible character outlines.
  • Car Crash — G in that loadout: Bring a vehicle attack into the fight. Watch the lock and remote-takeover feedback while continuing to move and shoot; it can also be used in a tower corridor.

Survive a Psycho Status Effects: No Signal, Slowdowns and Overheat

  • JAMMED / NO SIGNAL: During Blackout, Adam’s Sandy and Missile, or Capri’s Overdrive, Thunder, Watch and Satellite, can show NO SIGNAL. Keep moving and check individual slots; every attack does not stop. When JAMMED ends, check restored icons and any remaining cooldowns.
  • SHORT CIRCUIT // SLOWED: A movement slowdown is active. You can still move and use available attacks.
  • CRIPPLE MOVEMENT: Its panel specifically displays LOCOMOTION −40%. That value belongs to Cripple Movement, not Short Circuit.
  • OVERHEAT: Read the CORE TEMP panel and temperature bar, with warnings such as THERMAL REGULATOR OFFLINE and CRITICAL // IGNITION.
  • SMART LINK LOCK / TRACKED: In Capri’s hunting view, the targeting frame accompanies a changing distance in meters. TRACKED is distance information, not a slowdown indicator.

Statuses can overlap and clear separately.

Maps & Lobby

Survive a Psycho Maps, Scenario Voting and Lobby Locations

  • Arasaka Tower → Adam Smasher: A multilevel indoor battlefield.
  • Street Station → Capri: Streets, intersections and ruined buildings.
  • Scenario voting: During the voting phase, open VOTE and select VOTE beneath your preferred scenario. VOTED confirms your personal choice; SELECTED identifies the scenario that will load. Your vote does not guarantee the result.
  • Observation Deck lobby: Find the blue CLASSES area, yellow WEAPONS area and DAILY EMOTES display on the right.

Survive a Psycho Arasaka Tower: Floors and Routes

To travel from the Library area to storage:

  1. Enter the Library doorway near the stairs and continue through the offices to Sky Lobby.
  2. Find STAIR A — L1 SKY LOBBY, open its door and enter the stairwell.
  3. Follow the stairs and pass through the next door to reach the storage shelves.

At interactive doors, press E for the displayed OPEN or CLOSE action. During combat, choose clear floor space around openings and displaced shelves, boxes or debris.

Cash & Spending

Cash & Spending
Smart SMG combat against Adam with a Cash increment and STAY CLEAR warning visible.

Survive a Psycho Cash: Earning and Spending Guide

  • Earn through play: Cash can increase during survivor shooting, killer eliminations and round settlement. Death or defeat does not automatically mean zero payout.
  • Budget from the settled balance: Let the payout counter finish updating. MOST DAMAGE lists damage totals, not Cash amounts or a damage-to-Cash exchange rate.
  • Choose the result you want: 2,500 Cash buys either Crusher, a specific gun, or one normal class spin, a random result.
  • Reserve your gameplay budget: Set aside money for your chosen gun, upgrade or class goal before buying collectibles. Keep Cash and Robux budgets separate.

Emotes

Emotes

Survive a Psycho Emotes: Shop Prices and Packs

  • Daily Emotes — Cash: When offered, Bird Brain and Awooga cost 15,000 Cash each; Looping Da Rooms costs 75,000 Cash. Follow RESTOCKS IN for the next restock.
  • Featured — Robux: While listed, Lord Verity costs 199 Robux and Aura Monster costs 699 Robux. Each named offer has its own departure countdown.

Random packs:

Emotes per pack Total price
1 49 Robux
5 199 Robux
10 379 Robux
50 1,599 Robux

The 1-pack has the lowest total spend. The 50-pack has the lowest unit cost at 31.98 Robux per emote, if you want that many random results and can afford the upfront price. Random packs do not guarantee a particular emote.

Extra slots: The WANT MORE SLOTS? offer costs 200 Robux.

FAQ

Does getting the Capri class make me the Psycho?

The Capri survivor class and Capri Psycho role are separate roles. Survivor class spins offer the survivor class; the car and Satellite controls belong to Psycho Capri.

Do I need to buy Revive to receive round Cash after dying?

No. Death does not automatically erase your round payout: an eliminated survivor received Cash after the remaining teammate survived until time expired. Choose Revive to return to play, and use your completed settlement amount for budgeting. See Cash and round rewards.

Is Shift Lock the same as first-person weapon view?

They are separate controls. On PC, enable Shift Lock Switch under Roblox Settings → View & Controls. With Smart SMG equipped, press V to switch weapon view, including first person. See PC controls and camera settings.
