A killer among the guests
A killer among the guests. Someone doesn't wake, and the house votes at breakfast.
How to play
- Everyone gets a secret role: killer, inspector, doctor or guest.
- Each night, everyone taps one name in silence. The killer picks a victim; the inspector and doctor do their work.
- Each morning the phones say who died. Argue, then vote someone into the cellar.
- Guests win when every killer is locked up. Killers win when they match the guests left.
No narrator needed: the phones run the game, so everyone plays.
Your name, as the others will see it
