True Mafia group chat game
In short
Mafia without the poor soul who has to sit out and be the host. The bot deals roles fairly, never peeks and never forgets who got killed overnight. If you have a group of friends or classmates, this one is easy to recommend.
About the game
It all happens inside your own group. Someone opens a sign-up round, people tap to join, and a minute later everyone has a secret role waiting in their private messages. From there the bot calls the night, collects moves from the mafia, the doctor and the detective, and tells the town what happened at dawn.
The cast is bigger than the classic set. Beyond plain townsfolk, the Don and the Detective you get the Doctor, the Maniac and a handful of other roles that mess with the usual strategy. More players make for better games, though six people already work.
Groups of up to twelve play for free. There is a rating and win statistics, so after a couple of weeks you will know who bluffs best as the Don. Larger communities can buy a club edition branded with their own name.
The genre has one weak spot: it lives on people. If only three members actually play and the rest lurk, no bot will fix that. Pace also depends on how quickly players tap their night actions, so some rounds drag.
