The game takes place in a "village" that is infested with werewolves. Every night the werewolves attempt to kill a villager. Every day the villagers, in hope of ridding their village of werewolves, lynch someone. The game continues until either the villagers or the werewolves have won. The villagers win by killing all the werewolves. The werewolves win when the number of living werewolves is more than or equal to the number of living villagers.

Anyone have any thoughts on design? We'll likely use the conference logo on the back, but it would be great to revamp the front of the cards with new roles / descriptions.

MeeGo_Conference_2010/Werewolf games were quite popular, so we're doing them every evening in the Hacker Lounge for the Spring 2011 Conference! In general, the werewolf games will commence after the conclusion of the other evening activities every night starting on Saturday. See the schedule for more details and times.

What is Werewolf?

Werewolf is a party game based on Mafia that takes very little resources to play. All one needs to play werewolf is 8 or more players, and some paper (or cool decks of special cards).

It is a very easy game to play and new players are encouraged to attend. We'll spend a few minutes explaining the game, and we have a moderator who will guide you through every step of the game as we play.

The game takes place in a "village" that is infested with werewolves. Every night the werewolves attempt to kill a villager. Every day the villagers, in hope of ridding their village of werewolves, lynch someone. The game continues until either the villagers or the werewolves have won. The villagers win by killing all the werewolves. The werewolves win when the number of living werewolves is more than or equal to the number of living villagers.

Learn more by visiting the Wikipedia page or reading the rules that I usually use when playing.
