Game Concept Thread

Postby **ElectriKong** » Thu May 18, 2017 3:10 am

Grammar roles are bad because:
If English is not your first language, you're fucked if you get targeted
If you accidentally typed wrong, then you may fucked
You can't correct because you are not allowed to edit posts

Ultimately, if you make a mistake, you basically just have to hope you did not get targeted that night.

It encourages rule breaking as people could edit posts just so they stay alive
It encourages inactivity as posting puts one at risk of fucking up.

I can't remember the name of the role, but there's one that targets a player and a word, and if that player says that word during the day phase, they get killed. Something like that could work out if you regulate it so words that match up with it are also affected, that way it keeps people on their toes and you can't deliberately use bad grammar/spelling to avoid it completely.

The original iteration of this role is the Voodoo Lady.

Here is a repost of Undead Chaos with a few rebalancing changes

The Necromancer and the Undead
This team will begin with only the necromancer, and wins by outnumbering or equalling the town. This team has one kill each night

The necromancer's team may not have more than one of the same undead(2 Zombies are not allowed for example). Cannot be nightkilled until three people have been converted, although he can be lynched. Also cannot target himself.
Zombie: If the zombie is nightkilled or lynched, it will kill the person that killed him(Nightkill) or the last person that voted for him(Lynch).
Dark Spirit: Can stalk a player each night and eavesdrop on this person's PMs and DMs. Immune to nightkills.
Skeleton Warrior: A skeleton with an axe that can knock out any player each night. A knocked out player cannot speak the next day.

The Town
Wins by completely destroying the mafia
Priest: May protect a player from nightkills, mafia abilities, and from becoming undead each night. Cannot become undead, but isn't immune to nightkills.

Townie:
Light spirit: Cannot be nightkilled, and cannot become an undead, since he is already one. Due to being a ghost, people don't trust him, so he will cardflip red.

I'd say that the game for the most part does look pretty good and if it was posted in the host signups, i'd definitely vote it during the
first phase of the signups. However, The Dark Spirit's ability isn't that useful for pms and i'd suggest to use it for DMs only.

M45(+5): Mystery Gensokian Cosplay

Lore: A few citizens went into a Castle like In to have a party where everyone had to dress up as their favorite Touhou Characters. They eventually decided to stay the night when something weird happened (besides for everyone forgetting to get dressed.) In the morning, everyone noticed Their was a hole through the roof of the Castle in the exact center of the lounge. All that could be determined was that there was a sign saying: have fun finding the real villins of this game. (There is 15 people in the room). With everyone's memories wiped clean except for the members of `The Palace of Earth Spirits` and `Moriya Shrine Gods`, it was expected to be treated as the Salem Witch Trials. (Mafia) Anyone placed under the direct moonlight will be expelled from the Castle leaving only their costume with their name inside.

Mechanics:
Mystery
Night Lynching
Mafia Day Kills
Starts on Day/Dawn 1
Certain roles possess information about other roles
Psuedo Faction. (3-8-3-1)

Example Role PM:

System wrote:You have decided to cosplay as Flandre Scarlet. You can use your destructive ability to kill one person per night. Watch and do not kill your sister, <player> or you lose your own head.Your goal is to take out the Shrine Maiden and her Cohearts. Your team mates are <Player>, <Player>, and <Player>.

We don't even know what the game looks like yet so i can't say much about that, but i find the night lynching and mafia day kills don't make much sense as i don't see exactly why it's necessary to reverse it for no reason.

The type of lynch. Getting in the moonlight expels the player. That is what I am using for Lynches in this game.

EDIT:
Also, your game has a billion problems with it.
1. It has bad formatting which is why i linked you to the page above
2. The cardflip colors don't make sense, i don't see why the Sheriff and Deputy would be orange rather than the former being blue and the latter being green
3. This game honestly looks like a rip off of the ongoing game, try to be creative
4. Mario and Luigi along with their doctor counterparts doesn't make sense, their the same characters.
5. The game doesn't explain what each of the roles do, format a role like this:

Double Voter: Lynch votes count as two

6. And also, the game really doesn't look that fun, it looks like it would be pretty boring to play.

Did you not even read my edited post? I also explained that your game has a billion problems that need fixing and that
the formatting is made pretty badly, let me explain what i'm talking about.
This is your game now

But if you actually listened to my advice, here's how the game would look:

M????????: Mushroom Kingdom Terrorism

14 Players

Bowser's Army
King Bowser: The Leader of the Mafia
Shy Guy: Can switch it's color with another player's each night and if their inspected that night, will come up the target's color, flips red upon death
Koopa Troopa: Regular Mafioso
Koopa Troopa
Koopa Troopa

Mushroom Kingdom
Mario: Can inspect a player each night to learn their color
Luigi: Takes mario's place if he dies
Dr. Mario: Can protect a player from a nightkill each night
Dr. Luigi: Takes Dr. Mario's place if he dies
Toad: Regular Townie

See? Doesn't it look much better? This is how i suggest that you format games for now on, and again, try to be innovate and creative, try experimenting
with new roles and such, if something doesn't work, we can explain to you how to fix it, also, i'd suggest adding more townies to the game too, the town doesn't have enough of a chance at the moment.

On top of everything the others said. It is basically a shitty copy of M40 with less players. Try being original and use some homemade, edited or underused roles instead. I am not saying every game should be over the top original, but just try to refrain from blatantly stealing games and smacking different lore on them. Make your own games instead! That way you will have more chance to actually host a game compared to the stealing.
