Slashers is an asymmetrical multiplayer gamemode for Garry's Mod inspired by classic horror movies (especially in the slasher genre) that opposes a team of very cliché survivors
The survivors must find and collect resources that appear randomly in the map in order to escape and the killer must eliminate all survivors before they can escape.
Each character has an unique ability that will help him to survive or to locate his preys:
