ππππ§π¨π₯ππ ππ©ππ‘π§: Blood on the Clocktower
Blood on the Clocktower is a game of murder and mystery, lies and logic, deduction and deception for five-to-twenty courageous players and one devious storyteller.
A social game played in person, seated in a circle, each player receives either a βgoodβ or βevilβ token with their unique character on it. Good players share information to solve the mystery whilst evil players lie about who they are and what they know. The good team wins if they can piece together their knowledge, trust each other, and execute the demon. The evil team wins if the demon can sow distrust, evade detection, and wipe out the village.
We will have at least two games of Blood on the Clocktower on the day, with a potential third (time, and players, pending).
Due to the social nuances the game requires to play it smoothly, we're recommending that only players aged 10 and up join in for games of Blood on the Clocktower.
β’ Game 1 @ 12pm - Trouble Brewing
Trouble Brewing is the recommended "script" for introducing new players to Blood on the Clocktower, and is still a fun and engaging way to play for experienced players.
β’ Game 2 @ 2pm - Player's Choice (blind vote)
β’ Game 3 @ 4pm - Player's Choice (blind vote)
If there's enough experienced players for games two and three, there will be a blind vote on which script to play. Potential scripts include "Trouble Brewing", "Sects & Violets" and "Bad Moon Rising". The storyteller has final say on selected script.
The esteemed Geoff Setty will be our storyteller for this event.
