Werewolf

Goal:
Kill all villagers together with the other werewolves. Wakes up once during night and (together with the other werewolves) silently chooses a victim among the villagers by pointing at them.

Detailed description

Under the influence of the moonlight they turn into voracious beasts. To satisfy their appetite, they devour an innocent villager each night.

Hints for the game master and further rules

If the werewolves are taking too much time and are divided about their decision, don’t hesitate to log in the majority decision or to simply cancel their hunt so there won’t be any victims this night.

Hints for using this in the app

The sounds associated with the werewolf-scene offer the biggest variety – we recommend that you listen to them before starting the game so you can mute the ones not fitting your style.

Hints for you if you’re playing this character

As a werewolf, always try to hunt down the special characters that are most valuable for the village and most dangerous to you – often the seeress reveals herself by overly protecting someone or by directly accusing a werewolf.
