HOW TO PLAY

Deal out role slips secretly so each player knows only their own role.

2

During "night" phases, everyone closes their eyes while the mafia silently agree on a townsfolk player to eliminate.

During "day" phases, all players open their eyes, learn who was eliminated, and openly discuss and vote on who they suspect is mafia.

4

The player with the most votes is eliminated and their role is revealed to the group.

5

Alternate night and day phases, with the mafia trying to blend in and townsfolk trying to identify them.

6

Townsfolk win by eliminating all mafia; the mafia win once they equal or outnumber the remaining townsfolk.
