About the Game

Werewolf (also known as Mafia) is a game of survival and deception where villagers must hunt down the werewolves before they're all killed.

The game is split into alternating Days and Nights (see Day and Night below), played out live in real-time.

Starting the Game

Each player is given a random card with a role and assigned to either the Good or Evil team.

Number of Players

The number of roles for 7 players:

Good: 3 Villagers, 1 Doctor, 1 Seer
Evil: 2 Werewolves

The number of roles for 9 players:

Good: 2 Villagers, 1 Doctor, 1 Seer, 2 other random roles
Evil: 2 Werewolves, 1 Alpha Wolf

Alternatively, players can choose to play with the All Random Roles option.

Goal of the Game

The Good team's goal is to identify who the Evil roles are. They win when all Evil roles are eliminated.

The Evil team's goal is to deceive the Good roles and hunt them at night. They win if the remaining Good roles are equal to the number of Evil roles left.

The Day

During the Day, all living players discuss who among them might be the Werewolves or in the Evil team.

Each Day is played out in these phases:

Discussion: players discuss who the Werewolves or Evil roles are, and who should be killed.
Vote: Following discussion, players must cast their vote to kill a suspected player.
Defense: The condemned player has 1 last chance to argue and save themselves from execution.
Judgement: The accusing players must cast their final judgement to kill the accused player.

During the Night, certain players can carry out their Night Actions. For example, Werewolves can vote amongst themselves to kill off a player at night.
