This individual plays an extremely important and significant role in the game. There are fewer Innocents than Mafia members. They also know the identities of their teammates.Īlso known as the “townspeople,” these players only know the number of Mafiosi in the game. These players determine who will be killed. The number of roles assigned is dependent on the desire of the group and the number of players. If the majority voted the initial accused player guilty, the night round begins again.Īlthough the only roles that are absolutely necessary are that of the Moderator and the Mafia, others can be added. This continues until a player is declared guilty and leaves the game. If it is not decided that the accused is not guilty, accusations begin again. It may be required that the vote be anonymous or not. The Moderator calls for a vote and players indicate whether they believe the accused is guilty or not.

Players do not show their cards, but try to convince others they have a certain role. The Moderator tells the players to open their eyes and then announces who “died” the previous night. If the Doctor chooses another player and that individual is chosen by the Mafia to be killed, nothing will happen to the victim – they are “saved.” If the Doctor is chosen for death by the Mafia, he is out of the game and the townspeople can no longer be saved. The Doctor can choose to save himself and thus survive the night. Next, the Moderator wakes up the Doctor who will choose a person to save by silent pointing. If not, the Detective now knows the identity of an innocent. If the Detective is correct, that Mafia member is eliminated from the game. While everyone else is still asleep, the Moderator wakes up the Detective, who points to someone they suspect is a member of the Mafia. Then the Mafia “sleeps” again until “morning.” They tell the Moderator their decision by pointing to him or her. Players may gently tap their fingers to disguise any noise made. They pick a victim by gesturing silently. At this time, the Mafia members will be able to see all their fellow members. After everyone is “asleep,” the Moderator instructs the Mafia to wake up and choose a victim. The Moderator begins the night cycle by having all players close their eyes and put down their heads. Players are not to show their cards to anyone else. The Moderator shuffles the cards and then deals them out so that each person has a card. The Moderator may either assign additional roles or have players draw cards designated as being for a particular part, i.e.Miscellaneous cards (no hearts) for the Innocents.Cards of one suit (such as hearts) for Mafia members – one for every three Innocents.The Moderator divides the deck of cards as follows: This should be someone who knows the rules and has played the game before if possible. ![]()
