## What is Mafia Guard by VLVD Works?

Run a game of Mafia without cards, notes, or a narrator who has to remember everything.

Mafia Guard is the moderator's screen. It hands out secret roles, walks you through each night and vote, and works out who is eliminated - so you can keep the table talking.

SECRET ROLE REVEAL
- Pass the phone around the circle; each player sees only their own role
- Tap to reveal, tap to hide before handing it on
- Mafia, Doctor, Detective and Villager

GUIDED NIGHT PHASE
- Step through the Mafia's target, the Doctor's save and the Detective's investigation in order
- Saves and eliminations are worked out for you
- Investigation results are shown to the moderator only

SIMPLE VOTING
- Record one vote per living player
- Ties are detected automatically and nobody goes out
- The eliminated player's role is revealed to the table

THE APP CALLS THE WINNER
- Checked after every night and every vote
- Villagers win when the last Mafia is gone; Mafia win once they match the rest of the town
- A full summary shows every role and how the game unfolded

BUILT FOR GAME NIGHT
- Four players or more
- Role counts are checked before you start, so you never begin a game that cannot be won
- Put the phone down and pick the game back up where you left it
- A timeline of every night and every vote
- Connect to a TV or projector for a shared scoreboard

EVERYTHING STAYS ON YOUR DEVICE
- No account and no sign-in
- Works completely offline
- No analytics, no tracking, no data collected

## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 1.2.0 — 2026-09-29

Play your way — paper chits or phone
• New: Deal roles with paper chits. Write the roles, let everyone draw, then record who got what in a few taps. The app checks your counts and skips the pass-the-phone reveal.
• Recent players: names from your past games appear as one-tap chips when adding players.

Faster, fairer voting
• A new tally board: tap a player's name once per vote instead of recording every voter.
• Ties go to one revote between the tied players, and every result asks for confirmation before anyone is out.
• Choose "One vote each" or "Hands per name" to match how your group votes.
• The TV shows the live vote count as you tap.

Run the day with a timer
• Start a discussion timer from the dashboard (3 minutes by default, adjustable). It shows on the TV and alerts you when time is up.

Smoother setup
• No more naming games: each game is labeled with its date and time, and setup starts straight at Add Players.
• Role counts are pre-filled for your group size, and you can adjust any of them.
• During role reveal, the button shows who's next ("Next: Bob").

Other improvements
• The Detective is now the Cop.
• The Eliminated list shows players in the order they were eliminated.
• Tap any game in History to see its full timeline.
• The TV no longer shows eliminated players' roles until the game is over.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-09-23

Day voting, rebuilt for a real table.

Counting is now one tap per vote, instead of setting a choice for every player one at a time.

• Tap to count. Tap a player once for each raised hand or pointing finger. Fix a miscount with the minus button, or long-press to type a number.

• Two ways to vote. "One vote each" keeps the total to one vote per living player. "Hands per name" is for calling each name in turn, where a player can back more than one.

• Ties are handled for you. A tie starts a revote between only the tied players. A second tie means nobody goes out.

• Nothing gets lost. Counts save as you tap, so you can leave the screen, answer a question, or close the app and pick up exactly where you were.

• One confirmation before anyone is out, so a stray tap can't end someone's game.

• Live on the big screen. With a TV or projector connected, the table watches the count as you tap. Roles stay hidden.

• A clearer history. The timeline now shows the counts, the revote and how each day ended.

Games from the previous version carry over, history included.
