Werewolf Game Rules

 

Object of the Game

The object of the game is dependent on what side of the game you are playing on. There are two main factions: the Werewolf and the Villagers. Villagers win the game when they have killed the Werewolf. Whereas, the Werewolf win the game when there is only one Villager left alive.

“Game Days”

Obviously, in order to win, there must be a way to eliminated people from the village. This is where we begin to discuss the “game day”.
The game day is divided into two sections, Day and Night. Below are the explanations for each section:
Game Day
Each day, the village will try to vote someone out of the Village. This is called “lynching." The Werewolf at this time will try to lead the Villagers into lynching one of their own people while the Villagers will try to get everyone to lynch the Werewolf. In order to lynch a player, a simple majority of the village must vote him out.

Game Night

After the lynching during the day, the game slips into night. During the night, NO ONE is to tweet in the topic except for the moderator.
Only the Werewolf and the seer can communicate via DMs with the moderator.
At the end of the night, the moderator will post what occurred over the course of the night (who died, other effects, etc.). After everything from the night has been resolved, the Day begins again and chaos continues to occur until the Villagers or the Werewolf wins.

Times for each day:

Daytime – Starts about 9 AM Israel time (GMT+2)
Night - Starts about 9 PM Israel time (GMT+2)

Death

When you are killed off during the course of the game you may not participate in the voting process or to try to influence the other players. Any information you have accrued may not be passed onto another player.

Communication

All communication should be done publicly using the #wrwlf hash tag. In this blog we will put a twitter search widget so you can view all the tweets with this hash tag.
You may also have your own private discussions in any other method.

Rules

Any questions about the roles you’re playing, rules in general, or anything else, DM @wrwlf or @ereze .
Rules are subject to minor change should the need be.

 

Villager

imageYour aim is to keep your peaceful living in the village. Every night,  the werewolf will hunt one of you. The name of the deceased villager will be published in the morning.
In order to protect yourselves, you should try to uncover the identity of the werewolf and kill him. Each day you will be prompt to vote for the player you would like the village to lynch. The lynch will be carried based on a majority vote.
To vote just include in your tweet the expression “lynch @username”. For example: “I have think that we should lynch @username, he looks suspicious.

Seer

image You are one of the villagers but you have special abilities. Each night you can ask the moderator whether a cretin player is the werewolf.   You should do this via a direct message:
”d wrwlf Is @username the werewolf?” The answer would be published publicly. 
You can vote for the lynch like any other villager.
You should keep your identity secretly so the werewolf would not target you.

Werewolf

imageYour aim is to hunt all the villagers. Each night you should choose  your victim and send it via a direct message:
”d wrwlf Kill @username”

In order to protect yourself you should keep you identity secretly and pretend to be a plain villager.


Some of the rules were edited from here.

The WRWLF Game

The WRWLF game is a twitter based version of the successful  Werewolf party game AKA Mafia or Assassin. It is an experiment to see if the excitement of the party version can be duplicated over to twitter.
Game Play
Players are assigned with the following roles:
  • One Werewolf
  • One Seer
  • Villagers (all the rest of the players)
The goal of the Werewolf is to kill all of the Villagers and The goal of the Villagers and Seer is to kill the Werewolf and to save the village.
Each night the Werewolf will kill one of the Villagers. The identity of the player that was killed will be reveled in the morning along with his role (Seer or Villager).
Each night the Seer can point to one of the players and the moderator will reveal this player role only to the Seer.
During the day, all living players will debate the identity of the Werewolf and will vote to kill someone whom the majority suspect. After the lynch, the role of the dead player will be reveled (Werewolf, Seer or Villager).

Important - No player may reveal his role, to anyone, except when he is killed. Then all he can do is talk.
Winning
The Villagers win if they kill the Werewolf.
The Werewolf win if there is only one villager left alive.

Communicating
Twitter will be used for communicating between the players and between the players and the moderator.Each day and night the players will be prompted by the moderator for the next step of the game.
For all public statuses relevant to the game please use the #WRWLF hash tag.
