The endless argument before starting a game? “You start”, “no, you”, “I started first”? THE CHOSEN settles it in 5 seconds, with no fighting. How does it work? Very easy (and wonderfully magical): 1. Everyone places a finger on the screen 2. A 5-second countdown 3. TA-DA! The app decides completely fairly and at random. No cheating. No favoritism. No arguments. Selection modes The Chosen One person is selected and everyone else is eliminated. Perfect for deciding who starts, assigning a task or setting turn order. Respect the queue Each player gets a number. Ideal for turn order, assigning positions and organizing rounds. Sorting Hat The app automatically divides players into balanced teams. Great for team games, avoiding the same people always pairing up and skipping awkward team assignments. The fastest in the West The fastest finger wins… but watch out: raise it before the countdown ends and you’re disqualified. Perfect for quick decisions, minigames and making the group laugh. Why THE CHOSEN? · Super intuitive · Fast and fair · Ideal for board games, gatherings, tasks, challenges or whatever you can think of · Group fun guaranteed THE CHOSEN Because sometimes it’s not about what, but who… and magic makes the best call.
Blocktower BotC Toolkit

Blocktower is a free Storyteller toolkit for in-person Blood on the Clocktower, helping you with things the Grimoire can't track. Run nominations and votes, time discussions, take notes, and walk your players through the grim reveal at the end. Built to stay out of your way while you run the game. Quick setup, no make-work. ALWAYS KNOW THE VOTE THRESHOLD Blocktower automatically calculates the votes required to execute and recalculates whenever someone dies or comes back. No more mental math mid-nomination. DISCUSSION TIMER Set a timer for player discussions, then call the town back when it runs out. Lives in Live Activities and the Dynamic Island so it's never buried. TRACK NOMINATIONS Tap to start a nomination, drag from the nominator to the nominee, drag the tally to lock in the count. Always know if someone can be nominated or can nominate. GRIMOIRE PHOTO CAPTURE Set up your grimoire the way you normally would, point the camera at it, and Blocktower detects the tokens and assigns each player their role. Fix anything it misses with a tap. STORYTELLER NOTES Jot down whatever you want to remember (mayor bounce, assassin pick, a clever bluff). Notes flow into the end-of-game story. END-OF-GAME STORY When the game ends, snap a photo of the final grimoire, pick the winner, and Blocktower pulls everything together into a walkthrough of the game in the order it actually happened. Reclassify deaths and add notes from the preview before you reveal. Run the reveal off the screen, timing intact, nothing forgotten. GAME HISTORY Every story is saved with start and ending grim photos. So when someone asks "what happened in the first game tonight?" you have an answer. DAY AND NIGHT PHASES Track game progression with day and night phases. Always know what day it is, right on the game screen. CHARACTER DISTRIBUTION AT A GLANCE See the base Townsfolk, Outsider, Minion, and Demon counts for your player count. Just drag the game screen down. FULL SCRIPT LIBRARY Pick from the official scripts, search botcscripts.com directly inside the app, or import a custom script from a file or pasted JSON. Scripts display the edition for each character so building the bag goes a lot faster. BUILT FOR REAL STORYTELLING Fast to set up, easy to read from a distance, and stays out of your way while you run the game.
