Rise of the Blood Moon

Okay I forgot to ask a question about the TP when making suggestions and asking questions in private:
If Grim Reaper kills the Vampire Slayer or the Shapeshifter if they chose purple, will they be able to kill twice instead of just once?
Otherwise I love this game. The Shapeshifter is pure gold.

Thanks, and yes, the reaper can aquire multiple kills by stealing the souls of the Vampire Slayer or the purple shapeshifter. The shapeshifter's kill will only be passed on if it wasnt used yet.

Mafia ??: Fire, Arms, and Firearms
Format: Cardflip - 16 Players

Mafia
Fabricator: Twice throughout the whole game, can give a player a fake gun during the night that kills only the holder when fired. Fake guns appear real to the holder.
Disguiser: Can disguise herself as one player each night, taking on the target's cardflip color if inspected on the same night. Cardflips red on death.
Blackmailer: Can intimidate one player each night, preventing them from saying anything except "I was intimidated" on the next day. Can't target the same player for two nights in a row.

Townspeople
Doctor: Can protect one player each night to prevent them from being night killed.
Gunsmith: Can give one player a gun each night. Can't target the same player for two nights in a row.
Sheriff: Can inspect one player each night to learn their cardflip color.
Deputy: Becomes the sheriff when the sheriff dies.

Arsonist: Can spill gasoline on one player's house each night. Alternately, he can light all houses that have had gasoline spilled on them so far on fire at once, killing their inhabitants and ignoring any kind of protection on them. Players whose houses are doused in gasoline inspect orange to the sheriff (but cardflip their proper color on death). Lighting houses on fire is not considered to be a visit to any other player. Immune to night kills. Wins by being the last player standing.

- Guns can be fired during the day by publicly announcing that one is doing so in the thread. This kills the target without fail (unless the gun is fake), without ending the day (unless it ends the game).
- Guns have one shot and are non-transferrable. They can be held indefinitely and more than one can be held at once.
- If a player has both real gun(s) and a fake gun, the real gun(s) will be fired first.
- No role is allowed to target itself with its night ability.
- If a night kill is prevented, it will be announced that an attempt was made on the protected player's life.

Here's some constructive criticism: What the hell

[TLtimelord]

Here's a somewhat Halloween based game.

M#: No Rest for the Wicked
-20 Players
-Open Ballot
-Classic Mafia Game

Mafia:

Diabolist - Casts a spell on an individual each night, forbidding them from voting someone in particular. If the target makes that forbidding vote the next day, they die. Cannot forbid people from voting a mafia aligned player.
Witch - Visits one person each night. If they are visited by anyone else except the nurse and other mafia, the target dies.
Poisoner - Poisons someone each night. Poisoned players will die at the end of the next night. The nurse can heal the poisoned player.
Mad Scientist - Protects a mafia player from dying by a lynching, or through nightkill. The lynching protection can only be done once and cannot be done on themself.

Town:

Sheriff - Inspects a player each night to learn their color.
Nurse - Protects and/or heals a player each night.
Mortician - Inspects a dead player to learn their role.
Enchantress - Enchants one player per game. Their target can choose a player each night. If the Enchantress' target dies, their last chosen person's full role is revealed to the public.
Party Host - Chooses one night per game to disable all roles and instead have a party.
Trickster - Starts out red and immune to nightkills. If all the blues are dead, they can choose one of the blues to assume the role of. This includes gaining a blue cardflip but losing nightkill immunity.
Bleeder - if hit by any sort of kill attempt, including lynching, they have an extra phase to live. They are notified by a special PM in private.
Townsperson

Third Party:

Killer - Kills one person every night. Immune to the Party Host's power, the Poisoner's power, and nightkills in general.
Old Maid - Can choose one player to switch roles with each night, and absolutely nothing can prevent the role switch.

Clarification tab:
-The Old Maid cannot win
-Trickster's power essentially acts as a role switch. If the old maid takes the Trickster's role after they've chosen.
-If whoever was the old maid switches roles with a special, their powers are reset. For example, if the old mad scientist had used their anti-lynching power, the new one can use it again. And if the old trickster had used their power, the new trickster starts out as they were before they become a blue.
-The Mad Scientist can only prevent one lynching, but can prevent a nightkill on the mafia each night.
-The Bleeder does not know they are the bleeder.
-The Trickster does know they are the trickster.
-The Nurse can heal the Bleeder and stop them from dying.
-If someone is poisoned, they are notified.

The mafia is VERY overpowered and i'd suggest that you change that.

It would have been nice if you notified me which parts were overpowered but Pseudo helped me out there. Game updated.

i'm planning on updating it everytime i get advise after submitting it, so nothing.

[Thehelmetguy1]

Let me check TNT'S game. That is neat. Gonna be a quick game, since a total of FOUR people can die each night when n2 starts. And I am gonna say it isn't very hard. Three people can easily die each night. Now just target a suspicious person with the witch and the sheriff visits the person and the person dies. Four people dead in a single night. Even without this, three is already too much. That is quite a balanced game, huh?

[Witchking666]

Let's react to all these games that just got posted,

Mafia ??: Fire, Arms, and Firearms

This is a actually a pretty neat game. Item systems are really underused and your game seems to be perfectly balanced with it. With the current interest in mind I don't think it is wise to try and host a 16 player game though. A lot of people will be excluded from joining simply for living in unfavorable timezones. Also, do we really need another vanilla game after M40 and M38? I myself do like this game but I suggest you to make the game 18 or 20 player based to avoid unnecessary dissapointment.

M____ Virus Alert

Alright, this game seems to be pretty OK aside from a few points. Having a blue nightkill immune is overpowered as hell, M36 illustrates this perfectly. Essentially a blue nightkill immune functions as an instant night 1 blue alliance because it cannot be killed after publicly claiming in the thread. This gives the town an unfair advantage against the mafia. Also, you should specify what the sensitive immune system does to blue cardflip colours. I assume it inspects them correctly but your description only specifies what happens to red and green. The lore also doesns't really makes sense, but who cares about that anyway. Aside from the aforementioned problems your game looks pretty good. You do need to fix the nightkill immune and specify the sensitive immune system though.

M#: No Rest for the Wicked

I would really fucking like this game to be hosted around the helloween season. The bleeder is really cool. The witch is very original too. The old maid is especially interesting. Usually roles like that don't work well, but this game seems to be built around it perfectly. You do need to nerf the mafia though. Three out of the four mafiosi have a possibility to kill independently, which is really fucking overpowered. I suggest you to remove the poisoner and replace it with a different role entirely. Your mafia contains roles that mess with Voting and visiting aswell as a protective role but there is nothing that restricts ability usage or that manipulates the town. You should replace the poisoner with a manipulative role (Painter, Godfather, Thug etc.) or a blocking role (Silencer, Roleblocker, Rolestopper Etc.). This would fix both the amount of kill possibilities aswell as the power variety problem. Aside from the mafia problem though, I really like this game and I would want you to try and host it in the future.

Also I clarified some things and changed the icons for some roles in my game.
