What is Blood on the Clocktower?
Blood on the Clocktower is a social deduction game that is often described as Werewolf on steroids. Each player is secretly assigned to a team and given a unique role with its own ability. Most players are on the good team and are trying to figure out who the evil players are, while the evil team is trying to deceive the group and avoid being caught.
The game moves back and forth between a night phase and a day phase. During the night phase, certain players wake up one at a time to use their abilities. Some may learn important information, some may protect others, and some may create confusion behind the scenes. During the day phase, everyone talks, shares theories, asks questions, and tries to piece together what happened.
As the day goes on, players can nominate and vote out someone they believe is evil. That means discussion, bluffing, reading people, and teamwork all matter. Even if you die, you usually still stay involved in the game, so you are not left sitting around doing nothing. It is dramatic, funny, social, and highly interactive, and it is great for both new and experienced players.
