How Do You Use the Fake Me Sound Wheel?
The sound wheel menu is an interface accessible during active rounds by pressing and holding the T key. While holding the key, a radial selector appears in the center of the display, allowing the cursor to highlight specific audio triggers before releasing to broadcast the noise across the immediate vicinity.
Disguised Fakers learn how to play around audio cues because sound in FAKE ME features directional falloff. When you trigger an effect, Seekers standing in nearby rooms or corridors hear the noise originate from your exact coordinates. Players who join the official Discord community frequently test audio positioning to determine how far particular sounds travel through interior walls in multi-floor venues such as the school and office maps.
Sound Options and Voice Recording Features
Audio clips are tactical tools that disguised Fakers emit to distract nearby hunters. The default radial interface includes preset sound triggers, such as animal meows, air horn blasts, and comedic sound effects. In addition to stock effects, a red button located at the bottom of the wheel opens an active capture sequence for custom voice recording. Holding this input records your live microphone feed, letting you broadcast customized speech lines or noises whenever you trigger that segment of the wheel.
Use the sound wheel to choose from a variety of funny sounds during gameplay.

The table below outlines the audio choices available during matches:
| Audio Option | Recommended Situation | Strategic Tradeoff |
|---|---|---|
| Preset Sound Effects | Taunting Seekers who run past your disguised prop | Directs acoustic attention toward your hiding spot |
| Custom Voice Recording | Creating custom voice lines or unique room distractions | Demands setup time with your active microphone |
| Forced Sound Triggers | Revealing general room occupancy during hunter searches | Alerts both teams to your current floor location |
How Do Forced Sound Timers and Seeker Skills Work?
Forced sound intervals are automated match events and specialized hunter abilities that force all hiding players to broadcast audio cues. Lobby hosts configure match rules to include recurring forced sound countdowns. When the on-screen interval timer reaches zero, every living Faker automatically emits an audible noise, giving hunters a directional clue regardless of whether the hiders actively pressed their controls.
Seekers also counter stealthy disguises through dedicated tracking skills. For example, hunters who equip the forced sound skill can activate an ability that forces nearby targets to chime at will, while the hot-and-cold radar changes color between blue and red as a Seeker approaches a hidden prop. Knowing how these tracking systems work provides valuable Seeker tips for eliminating props that blend into room clutter, and players can review upcoming feature updates directly on the official Steam store page.
