Player Guide

Wherewolf is a variant of the social deduction game werewolf. What makes Wherewolf different from other variants, is that everyone has a role that can advance the game and different roles can interact with each other in interesting ways.

Start of the Game
At the beginning of the game you will get a Role, most roles have a Faction, winning condition and a power. Although these may all change throughout the course of the game. It it advised that you learn how your role works and how it interacts with other roles.

The moderator will say which roles are possibly in play, by listing moon ratings, factions or individual roles, this doesn't mean they are assigned to players. Although the Alpha Wolf and Clairvoyant must always be in play.

Night Time
During the nights all players close their eyes and the moderator will call certain players to wake up or raise thier hand.

First Night
The purpose of the first night is that some roles identifies others in the first night and others receive information. Note that no one dies in the first night.

If you do receive information in the first night, make sure you listen to the moderator for when to wake up.

Following Nights
On every following night Wolves can select someone to die and all Mystics can use thier powers.

Also if in play other Shadows can act, as well as certain Criminals.

Day Time
During the day the players can discuss who to burn that night. There can only be one person talking at a time and no private conversations between players.

The day may also be timed by the moderator.

Accusations
The First round of voting. During voting everyone closes their eyes and the moderator calls out each player's name. When the name of the player you wish to vote for is called, raise your hand. Everyone has one vote and you must vote.

The top two groups of people with the most votes go on the Ballot. Players then discuss who to burn on the Ballot.

Ballot
The Second round of voting. This round of voting goes the same way as the first, except that people on the ballot can not vote. Apart from City Faction roles who can always vote, if they are in play.

The player with the most votes in the second round of voting is burnt. It there are two or more people with the most votes, then no one is burnt and the moderator will announce that the village was undecided.

After the ballot the village goes straight into the next night.

End of the Game
The game ends when there are no longer Shadow Creatures in play.
