Mafia Party: A helping hand for mafia games
What it is:
A small site/app (PWA) that facilitates when playing big games of the party game Mafia (Werewolf).
Say you have 8 players, 2 killers, 1 medic, 1 detective, remembering what each did at night is quite easy for a storyteller who is experienced. But say that others join too since it seems fun. Great! Now you have 16 players… what now?
That’s why I made this! It has been battled tested up to 28 players and the way it was coded theoretically allows for any combo of players and roles.
Do you want 30 players, 10 doctors and one killer? Sure
Do you want 120 players, 15 of each role, 10 kills per round and multiple eliminations at day? Sure
Do whatever you want, do whatever your players need!
What it isn’t:
It isn’t a full game. It’s merely a tool to be used by a moderator instead of a piece of paper or remembering each action at night.
You still need people to play with, a space to play and a deck of cards to give out roles
