## What is Mafia?

Mafia (also known as Werewolf) with no host: everyone plays, and the phone
narrates the game. And nobody closes their eyes.

The town falls asleep — and the phone goes around the table and everyone has something to do at night —
even the civilians. From the outside every move looks the same: same list,
same gesture, same timer. So peeking is pointless and the lights can stay on.

No host needed: the app deals the roles, runs the night, announces the
morning, keeps the discussion timer and counts the raised hands. It spots a
tie by itself and runs the revote — exactly where a human host decides by eye
and the table remembers the evening differently afterwards.

WHAT IS INSIDE
• Open-eyes night: the phone is passed from hand to hand
• Neural narrator voice, works offline, four English and four Russian voices
• Three narrator styles — strict, lively, circus — plus seasonal ones for
  the holidays
• Decks: classic, with a doctor, with a maniac — and with Mafia+: extended,
  Night City, Big company (12+ players)
• Roles: mafia, don, sheriff, doctor, maniac, harlot, lawyer, werewolf,
  bodyguard, immortal, kamikaze, journalist
• Day timer with pause, extension and a thirty-second warning
• Voting: suspects, hand counting, ties, revotes, voting them all out
• Final words for the player who leaves
• After-game breakdown: who was who and what happened each night
• Share the result as a picture in your group chat
• Practice game for one: see how it works without gathering a table

The game is saved: a locked or dead phone does not cost you the evening.

5 to 20 players. One phone per table. No internet required. A social
deduction party game for friends, family and game night.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.2.2 — 2026-10-17

Small fixes and improvements. If Mafia went down well with your group, please leave a rating — it helps other groups find us.

### 1.2.1 — 2026-10-15

New deck “Big company” for tables of 12 or more. The bodyguard takes the bullet, the immortal cannot be killed at night, an executed kamikaze takes someone along, and the journalist learns whether anyone visited a player. The deck is part of Mafia+.

### 1.2.0 — 2026-10-08

Play from separate phones: open a room, friends join with a code or QR, and everyone makes their night move on their own phone. The app now speaks Spanish, Portuguese and French — interface, rules and the host. Mafia+ unlocks every deck and everything new, first week free; or unlock a paid deck for one game by watching a video. Meet the new host: a masked figure in a hood who greets you on the home screen and in the lobby.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-10-06

The host has two to three times as many lines and never repeats one back to back. Until November 10, a Halloween style: ghosts, bonfires and a pumpkin devil — turn it on under Host voice. A fresh look: raised buttons, a countdown ring, the host on stage every morning. On an English phone the host speaks English from the first game, and a natural voice downloads right from the home screen. Share a game’s result as a picture. The deck picker now fits small screens.

### 1.0.1 — 2026-10-01

No release notes.
