**A new format: you choose who you're interested in meeting** This meetup is about getting to know new people and sharing the experience in a small group (8-10 people). *We use the LYTT platform to handle group size and balance - so you're not just hoping someone interesting shows up.* To apply you will need to create an account at [lytt.me](https://lytt.me/meetup/mafia-night) \- it's free\. **The event: The Ultimate Game of Lying, Bluffing & Deception** Mafia is a psychological social deduction game where civilians hunt for hidden mafia members through strategic discussion and voting. Mafia members secretly eliminate civilians while pretending to be innocent. Lie convincingly, read people accurately, and watch who you trust. Your LYTT crew joins a 2-hour immersive game night with professional hosting, props, and themes. The rules are simple - beginners play like experts by the end of the night. Post-game hangs hit different when you've just spent 2 hours deceiving each other. The whole experience runs about 2.5 hours. **The group: LYTT platform** LYTT forms small groups for events and activities you pick. 1\. Click 'Attend' here on Meetup\, then head to [lytt.me](https://lytt.me/meetup/mafia-night) to create a quick profile (photo, a few interests, short bio) 2\.

Show up knowing your crew already picked you \- *but no one knows who picked who*, to keep mystery and low pressure Applying doesn't guarantee a spot - but we may form multiple groups or invite you to similar events with other crews. **What's included:** • 2-hour professionally hosted Mafia game • Table props and themed atmosphere • Multiple rounds of play **Details:** **Cost:** Pricing varies by package (contact for quote). Pay after your group is confirmed. **Group size:** 8-10 people **Location:** TBD (Toronto or GTA venue) **Who this is for:** • 27-40ish, give or take • People who love games (strategy, social deduction, improv) • Those who don't take themselves too seriously • Looking for friends, dates, or just better ways to spend a Saturday night **Questions?** hey@lytt.me **Proceed to register here:** [https://lytt.me/meetup/mafia-night](https://lytt.me/meetup/mafia-night)
