Dive into the thrilling world of *Town of Salem*, where intrigue, accusations, and mob hysteria reign supreme. This game of social deduction and strategy can be played with 7 to 15 players, each assigned to one of several alignments: Town, Mafia, Serial Killers, Arsonists, or Neutrals. As a Town member (the good guys), your mission is to unearth and stop the Mafia and other villains before they eliminate you. The twist? You won’t know who among you is friend or foe. If you find yourself on the darker side, such as a Serial Killer, your goal is to secretly dispatch Town members under the cover of night while evading capture.
Roles
*Town of Salem* boasts an impressive roster of 33 unique roles, ensuring a fresh experience with every game. Before diving into the action, players gather in a lobby where the host can curate the roles available. Once the game begins, roles are randomly assigned from this selected pool. Each player receives a role card detailing their abilities and alignment. For a detailed breakdown of each role’s capabilities, check out www.blankmediagames.com/roles.
Game Phases
Night
The night phase is where much of the action happens covertly. Serial Killers quietly take out their targets, Doctors work to heal the wounded, and Sheriffs probe for signs of foul play among the townsfolk.
Day
During the day, Town members convene to share suspicions and strategize. As the voting phase commences, a majority vote from the town propels someone onto the trial stand.
Defense
In the defense phase, the accused must convincingly argue their innocence to avoid a grim fate at the gallows.
Judgement
The town then casts their votes in the judgment phase, choosing between guilty, innocent, or abstaining. If guilty votes outweigh innocent ones, the accused meets their end by hanging.
