    Hi all, I searched but couldn't find anything about this game in our forums.

    Anyways, this is a web based browser game, but it's also on STEAM, I think they work together.

    The game has 15 people, and each is assigned a role.
    There are 3 Mafia and a Serial Killer, and then a Jester and some Townies.
    Every role has different abilites...and the goal is for the Townies to Kill / Lynch all the Mafia and Serial Killer.
    While the Mafia and Serial Killers goals are the opposite.

    You have roles in the town like Escort, who can block someones actions that night, or Jailor, who can jail anyone...and kill them if he likes. Sheriff can check someone at night and know if they are Suspicious (SK or Mafia) .
    Investigator can get hints to peoples roles. Doctor can heal 1 person at night. Medium can talk to already dead people.
    But....noone knows anyone elses role, and you don't want to give away your role early in the game either...

    You have to work together and use your Last will to figure out who the enemy is. It's quite brilliant and addictive.
    You have to be smart and devious !

    Suggest you all give it a go,,,,it's free.

    A little confusing at the start, but you'll get it after 3 or 4 games.

    It is without doubt the single greatest and most fun timekiller in the office I've come across.

    If we could get a load of boardsies playing it would be a lot of fun (my nickname is Setanta) if anyone wants to add me

    Below is sample pic taken off internetz , in the 1st pic most of the Townies are dead...looks like Mafia and SK will win.
    They guy has just written his will, you write it each night...with the hope of helping your teammates in case you die. So they will have all the info you had....and other players can look back at all previously killed peoples wills too to try work out who is who !

    Very addictive!

    Someone put me on to it about a month ago. I thought I'd try a couple of games of it, ended up playing about a dozen and buying it. Have put in a lot of hours too. For such a simple idea it's a great little game.

    One annoying thing is all the crap talk some of the players keep going on with. I know jesters and some people have their reason for trying to be annoying/shift suspicion/etc but some people are just dicks....
