## What is Mafia Anchor?

Mafia Anchor is the moderator's seat at the table.

If you host Mafia, you know the job: remember who is out, who was healed, who has strikes, who was nominated, whose turn it is to open the discussion, and how long that discussion has left. All while eleven people talk over you. Mafia Anchor holds every bit of it so you can run the round instead of bookkeeping it.

One phone, passed around one table. No accounts, no sign-up, no connection needed.

WHAT IT KEEPS TRACK OF

- 4 to 20 players across eight roles: Civilian, Detective, Doctor, Mafia, Don, Serial Killer, Shogun and Yakuza
- A discussion timer you can stretch or shorten mid-round
- Healed and eliminated marked with a tap, with strikes counted for you
- Nominations and the vote that follows, including a second round when it ties
- A full log of every strike, heal, nomination and elimination
- Undo on any of it, because mis-taps happen when the room is loud

LET THE APP DEAL THE ROLES

Leave every role blank and Mafia Anchor builds a balanced set for your headcount, with a one-tap Shogun and Yakuza swap. Prefer to assign them yourself? Do that instead — it is a per-game choice, not a setting.

PASS THE PHONE TO REVEAL

Each player sees their own role and nobody else's: a handover screen with their name on it, hold to reveal, release to hide. A closing card hands the phone back to you, so no one is left holding the moderator's screen.

WHO SPEAKS FIRST

The app remembers who opened the last discussion and moves it along one place each round, so the same person never always starts. Long-press a player to set it by hand.

BUILT FOR THE ROOM YOU ARE IN

The layout adapts to phones and tablets, portrait and landscape.

ENGLISH AND GEORGIAN

Switch language at any moment, from any screen.

Mafia Anchor is free. Starting a game spends coins — you begin with enough for your first game, and can earn more by watching a short rewarded video.


## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 3.0.0 — 2026-08-29

Mafia Anchor has been rebuilt from the ground up.

The rules are exactly as they were - every one of them was carried over unchanged, so tonight's game plays the way it always has. Everything around them is new.

A REBUILT INTERFACE
The layout now adapts to the screen it is on. Phones, tablets and landscape each get a real layout instead of a narrow strip of controls. Player rows match your headcount instead of a fixed eleven, and far fewer pop-up dialogs interrupt you. Healed and Eliminated sit side by side, so more players fit on screen at once.

LET THE APP DEAL THE ROLES
Leave every role blank and Mafia Anchor builds a balanced set for your headcount, with a one-tap Shogun and Yakuza swap.

PASS-THE-PHONE ROLE REVEAL
Hand the phone around the table and each player sees their own role privately: a handover screen, hold to reveal, and a closing card that hands the phone back to you.

WHO SPEAKS FIRST
The app tracks who opens each discussion and rotates it one place every round. Long-press a player to set it yourself.

UNDO AND A FULL GAME LOG
Every strike, heal, nomination and elimination is recorded, and any of them can be undone.

Georgian and English throughout, switchable at any time.
