Dead By Daylightpits a Killer against four Survivors who are trying to escape the trial before the Killer and the terrible Entity trapping them there kills them all. In the fray is Charles Lee Ray, a serial killer-turned-possessed doll, now known as Chucky The Good Guy from the Child’s Play series of horror-comedy films.
This pint-size terror is every bit as lethal as the other Killers. In fact, his short stature and unique abilities gives him an edge on some of the other Killers in the realm. With this guide, you’ll learn what you need to apply Chucky’s brand of murderous mischief to the Entity’s Trials.
How Does The Good Guy’s Power Work
Chucky’s unique power is called Playtime’s Over, and when you’re ready to get serious, its stealthiness allows you to catch Survivors off-guard while the agility it grants will allow you to catch up and finish them off.
Special Ability: Hidey-Ho Mode
Normally, Chucky leaves behind a short trail of rapidly-disappearing Footfalls that Survivors can see. Activating Hidey-Ho Mode, in addition to making him Undetectable, will make Survivors see Illusory Footfalls and hear footsteps from all directions, as if Chucky is nearby. While in Hidey-Ho Mode, you gain access to the Slice & Dice and Scamper abilities.
Special Attack: Slice & Dice
While in Hidey-Ho Mode, Chucky has access to the Slice & Dice attack, a long-range dash that ends in a leaping strike.Afterwards, Hidey-Ho mode goes into cooldown.
Special Ability: Scamper
While in Hidey-Ho Mode, Chucky can vault over windows and under dropped pallets.
Continue to hold down the Use Power button during and after the Scamper animation, otherwise you’ll go straight to the leaping strike animation.

Best Build For The Good Guy And Perk Synergies
Chucky knows that sharing is caring, and DBD players know that the best builds are composed of perks from multiple Killers. Here are some strong perks that play well with The Good Guy’s kit:
Do not use the perk Shadowborn on The Good Guy. His unique POV means that it doesn’t work for him. This is also true for the FOV-altering effects of Monitor and Abuse.
Hex: Two Can Play Perk Synergies
A bit of a niche perk, but utilized properly, Survivors might find out just how annoying it is to be Blinded. Even prepared Survivors might blunder into walls while trying to get away, allowing you to close the gap that much easier.
Friends ‘Till The End Perk Synergies
A deceptively strong perk that ensures that you always have someone to chase after hooking someone else anda decent chance at a quick down as well, thanks to its 10-second Exposed effect.
Batteries Included deactivates when the doors are powered. The developers has said on a stream that they will remove this stipulation at a future date, which would make this perk synergize well with Hex: No One Escapes Death.
