Mafia

About this game

About Mafia

A synchronized social-deduction game for six to twelve people. Hidden roles split the room into Mafia and Town. Discuss over voice, lock a plurality ballot by day, and let the Mafia reach private consensus at night. Town wins when every Mafia player is gone; Mafia wins at parity.

How to play

How to play Mafia

Mafia coordinate privately at night. Everyone discusses over voice and votes by day.

Privately reveal and confirm your role. Discuss over an external voice call for up to two minutes, then vote once or abstain. The unique plurality is eliminated; a tie eliminates nobody. At night, living Mafia privately agree on a non-Mafia target. There are no special roles in this version.

Tips for Mafia

• Town should ask for claims that can be checked next night.
• Mafia should not over-defend the same teammate every vote.
• A quiet first day is usually worse than a wrong vote.
