Wherewolf – Player Guide (1 page)

Wherewolf is a variant werewolf game. What makes Wherewolf different is that everyone has a role that
can advance the game and different roles interact with each other in interesting ways.

1. Start of the Game

At the beginning of the game you will get a Role, most roles have a Faction, winning condition and a power
(NB: these may change throughout the course of the game.) It is advised that you learn how your role
works and how it interacts with others. The moderator will say which roles are possibly in play, by listing
moon ratings, factions or individual roles, but this doesn't mean they are all assigned to players. The Alpha
Wolf and Clairvoyant must always be in play.

2. Night Time – ALL players close their eyes

The moderator will call certain players to wake up or raise their hand.

2.1 First Night

During the first night some roles identify other roles, whilst others receive information.
No one dies in the first night. Make sure you listen to the moderator for when to wake up.

2.2 Following Nights

From the second night Wolves can select someone to die and all Mystics can use their powers.
Also if in play other Shadows can act, as well as certain Criminals.

3. Day Time – ALL players open their eyes

Moderator will announce news from the night (normally deaths or other events). During the day players
discuss who to kill that night. There can only be one person talking at a time and no private conversations.
The day may be timed by the moderator. Next comes two rounds of voting

3.1 Accusations – the first round of voting

Everyone closes their eyes and the moderator calls out each player's name. When the name of the
player you wish to vote for is called, raise your hand. Everyone has one vote and you must vote.
The top two groups of people with the most votes go on the Ballot. Players then discuss who to
kill on the Ballot.

3.2 Ballot – the second round of voting

Same as the first round, except that people on the ballot cannot vote (Apart from City
Faction roles who can always vote, if they are in play.)
The player with the most votes in the second round of voting is killed. It there are two or more
people with the most votes, then no one is killed and the moderator will announce that the village
was undecided. After the ballot the village goes straight into the next night.

4. End of the Game

The game ends when there are no longer Shadow Creatures in play.
Wherewolf – Moderator Guide (1 page)

1. Creating a game
To keep game balance, it is advised that roughly 25% of the roles in the game be shadows. The shadows
often have additional knowledge about who is on their side, which must be balanced by being significantly
outnumbered.

It is advised that the at least 25% of possible roles are not in play. So as a rule of thumb, if there are 10
players, choose 12-15 possible roles before randomly removing down to 10 to deal out. If the size of the
game gets too large, consider either splitting the game into two games, or adding in additional roles to
increase the game size.

Use 3-moon roles sparingly. Try picking a faction or two from 3-moon roles, but try to avoid throwing in
too many roles at once unless the players have all experienced the roles a lot. These roles can also be
touch for moderators!

The only rule of common sense is to play or not play the faction as a whole. For example: Vampire, Ghoul
and Vampire Hunter are a group, so are the Criminals. There should be all or none of them in the Village
Composition (NB: not on the cards dealt out, but in those that "may" be in play). Some group also group
together all the roles that affect votings (Merchant, Lawyer, Mayor and Preacher) and use all of them or
none of them, depending on preference.

2. Guiding Discussions
Discussion is often a lot of fun, but it is the moderator's job to make sure the game stays on track. Make
sure everyone has enough time to make their points, but if the conversation is not progressing, suggest
that the game goes to the next round of voting.

3. Time Limits
Having a countdown on days is a great way to add tension to the game or to make sure games don't run
too long. There are several options to use; use whichever ones appeal to you:
 Timed rounds: Each round of discussion has a limit, when the time runs out the village goes to the
next stage of voting.
 Timed days: The days have a time limit, when the time runs out the game goes to night. Whether
or not the village has a burning, of course this is only for experienced players as it is up to the
village to manage their time.
 Guided Days: There are timed rounds, but if the village has time left from a round, then it is added
onto the next round's time.

4. Fixing mistakes
Sometimes the moderator may make a wrong call and someone will live/die or be given false info.
 For a small mistake (such as telling the Clairvoyant a target was non-corrupt when they were
corrupt), it may be best to call up the player involved to privately talk to them.
 For larger errors which are announced to the whole village (E.g. a player was killed during the
night), it may be best to just continue on.

At the end of the day, the most important thing is not strict adherence to the rules, but for the players
to have fun.
