About

Mafia Classic

Features
Read full description

Ideal for groups of 7 players or more. Mafia Classic allows you to finally play the beloved classic Mafia game without a narrator. Players are automatically assigned roles through the app. The day/nighttime phases and game logic is then all handled through the app. This allows everyone to focus on whats fun: figuring out who is Mafia! The in-app narrator leverages AI to be custom, creative, and sometimes even funny. You can customize the types of roles, the number of roles, and some other game variation parameters. If you don't have the minimum number of players (5), then you can add a computer bot to join the game. They are not the smartest players, but they do add a fun random element.

About

MAFIA

Features
Read full description

MAFIA: Game Master turns your phone into a cinematic narrator for the classic party game Mafia (a.k.a. Werewolf). You run the game like a host — players never touch the app, they just sit in a circle and play. THE APP IS THE NARRATOR • Walks you through every night and day phase: wake the Mafia, the Doctor, the Sheriff, resolve the night, read the morning aloud. • Tracks every role and who's still alive, so you never lose the thread. • A Traitors-style discussion timer keeps the table moving. PHONE VOTING (OPTIONAL) • Flip on Device Voting and players scan a QR code to join from their own phones — no app, no account. • Everyone votes in secret; when you call "pencils down," each phone flips up to reveal its vote. Or skip it and use whiteboards — great when kids don't have phones. MADE FOR YOUR GROUP • Save your regulars and reuse them every game night. • Ready-made scenarios (Classic, Family Night, Blood Moon, Chaos…) or build your own roles and rules. • Track stats and history across games. Free to play as a single-game narrator. Unlock MAFIA Pro for AI-written stories, phone voting, saved games, and full stats.
