Mafia board game extended version with original design plastic cards. Contains 21 cards. Mafia Rules

There are two teams, Mafia and Citizens. And there are two phases, day and night. The citizens win if they eliminate all the mafia players and the mafia wins if they outnumber the citizen players.

The Number of Players. Minimum 7 players, no maximum number. There should be 1 mafia member per 3 citizens, rounded down.

The Deal. One player is selected each round to be the moderator. The moderator does not participate in the game as a player, but manages the game and remains absolutely neutral.

The moderator will ascertain how many of each card to deal and will deal each player, face down, one card. Each player will look at his or her card. No one shall reveal his identity before the first day. No one shall ever show his card to anyone else while they are still alive. In a variant, the moderator may deal the cards out non-randomly, choosing secretly who is to play each role.

Night Phase. The moderator tells everyone to go to sleep, all players close their eyes. The moderator then tells the mafia players to wake up. Those players that drew the mafia cards open eyes and see who else is on their team. The moderator then asks the mafia to point to the player they want to kill. The mafia quietly agree to and point to the player they wish to kill and after the moderator acknowledges their target, the moderator asks the mafia to go to sleep.

Day Phase. The moderator tells everyone to wake up. The moderator then tells the group, by name, the player that was killed by the mafia. The remaining players then have to debate who they think the mafia are. The mafia will act, bluff, lie, and pretend not to be the mafia as not to get caught. Everyone votes for one player to “lynch” or kick out of town. That player is eliminated and it’s up to the moderator if he/she wants to disclose that player’s role.

The night phase comes again and the game keeps going until there is no mafia left or the mafia outnumbers the citizens.
