Texas Chainsaw Massacre - How to play as Johnny
I don't care how handsome you are, I'm not going to a creepy farm with you

 Unveil his chilling special ability and navigate the macabre world of clues and pursuit as you take on the role of Johnny, the closest semblance to a traditional serial killer in the Texas Chainsaw Massacre Family.

Johnny is the "looks" of the Family and that comes from the narrative that Sumo Digital's latest release pushes for him. He uses his looks to stalk, charm and then lure victims back onto the Family's property. The game labels him as "the closest thing the Family has to a traditional serial killer". 

Johnny wields a skinning knife as a choice of weapon that he got from the Grandpa as a gift. Due to his handiness with the weapon and overall strength, most of his hits leave victims confused and dazed for a short period of time.

His special ability revolves around stalking and hunting his "prey" and to activate it the player must simply press right-click to start channeling. Once the ability is active, all clues that had been left by the Victims become visible to him.

Every discovered clue can be further analyzed if Johhny makes his way toward it and presses E on it. Doing so will reveal the Victim's latest navigation patterns, ultimately leading Johnny straight to them.

His hunting ability does have an impactful cooldown so trying to channel it while the other family members are also hunting nearby would be the ideal strat for Johnny since he isn't much of a vigilant or agile killer like Sissy.

Overall, Johnny is meant to be played similarly to how the Leatherface is meant to be played, if you exclude the chainsaw. Substitute the brutality of the chainsaw with the very high stun potential of the skinning knife and you are good to go.
