nishio Insider game, by far more interesting than werewolf, one game is over in 10 minutes, and people who get hacked early in the game don’t feel lonely like werewolves do! image

nishio Rules explanation: pick GM and insider, pick a word, only GM and insider know it, not even GM knows who the insider is, no one but GM, good for GM Ask a question that can be answered with a “yes” and find the correct answer within 5 minutes, then free talk for 5 minutes to figure out who the insider is, then vote to hang.

nishio Insiders will be suspicious if they actively interfere, but if they don’t interfere and fail the first half of the word-guessing quiz, they all lose, so if they succeed in guessing the word and the others are suspicious You have to guide them. A double mind manipulation game. The word guessing part is also more interesting than playing by itself (because people give hints so that you don’t know).

uchan_nos This is the one I want in the Bodoge Department!

nishio Finally, they did it with the rule “only one word card with an information processing-related term on it, the rest were handed out blank, and the person who drew the card with the word on it was the insider”.

uchan_nos I see. You can still do it. I guess the method of multiple subjects on a card is a device to reduce the number of cards. After that, I think you will notice that there are some points where the rules of that game are not good if you play it over. If you refine that a little more, it would be a really good game.
