“Mafia” is one of the most famous psychological games. You are randomly divided into ordinary residents and criminals, and you try to figure out who is who. One round is one game day. During the day, the residents try to identify the criminals, and at night, the criminals choose their victim. With each game day, the tension builds. HOW TO PLAY One phone is placed in the center of the table — this is the host. He distributes the roles, announces night and day, counts the votes, and sums up the results. Players can only listen, talk, and suspect each other. 14 ROLES Civilian, Mafia, Don, Sheriff, Doctor, Prostitute, Commissioner, Maniac — and six additional ones: Bodyguard, Lawyer, Journalist, Quiet One, Avenger, Cupid. Four ready‑made role sets — “For Beginners”, “Classic”, “Extended”, and “Own Game” with manual adjustment of the number of mafia and special roles — suitable for any group, from the first game to experienced players. DIGITAL HOST The app automatically manages the queue of night moves in the correct order, voices the phases, counts who was killed and who was saved by the doctor or bodyguard, and shows the test results only to the Sheriff and no one else. Day and night timers, open and secret voting — choose your preference. TWO DESIGN THEMES Classic noir — dark blue background, gold and crimson, as in detective movies — or neon cyberpunk, if the company prefers a different atmosphere. It can be switched in the settings at any time. STATISTICS AND PROFILES The app remembers the game history on the device: who won and how many times, which role the player gets most often. MORE - An interactive guide with a mini‑quiz, not a wall of text - Exit the game with a single button at any time - The game itself runs completely offline — all progress and statistics are stored only on the device - Russian, English, and Italian languages - You can disable ads for free by simply writing to the developer. Mafia does not require registration and does not collect personal data — for more details, see the Privacy Policy.
