Classic Mafia vs ours
The host
One person hosts and sits out all evening. And knows every role.
The app hosts: deals the roles and calls players by voice at night. Everyone plays.
Roles
Roles from a deck of cards. A bent corner, and everyone knows.
Only you see your role, on your own phone.
Night
Eyes closed, rustling all around. You can hear the Mafia across the table.
Everyone holds a phone, so nobody can tell who's choosing. The Sheriff gets a vibration.
Day
Someone talks for half an hour, and votes are counted on fingers.
Everyone gets a speech timer, and the app counts the votes.

Questions
Good to know
Who runs the game?
The app. It deals the roles, runs the night by voice, keeps time during discussion and counts the votes. So everyone plays, even whoever usually hosted.
What do we need?
Friends in one room and a phone with Telegram for each. The host's voice plays from the creator's phone, so turn it up.
How many players?
From 4 to 16. The game suggests the setup: one Mafia up to 6 players, two for 7–10, three from 11.
What roles are there?
Mafia, Doctor, Sheriff and Civilians. At night the Mafia takes out a player, the Doctor saves one, the Sheriff checks one, and during the day everyone hunts for the Mafia and votes.
How does the Sheriff find out who's Mafia?
By vibration. A long buzz means Mafia, two short pulses mean the player isn't. Only the Sheriff knows the answer.
Can others see who taps at night?
No. Before the night everyone holds their phone, so nobody can tell who's choosing. Civilians don't need to tap anything.
What can we set up?
How many Mafia there are, whether the Doctor and Sheriff play, how many seconds each player gets in the discussion, the host's voice and subtitles.
What if nobody knows the rules?
While everyone gathers, the game shows a short tutorial. It covers only what's different from classic Mafia.
Can we play from different rooms?
The game is made for friends around one table: the host's voice plays from one phone, and you argue face to face.
Is it free?
Yes. The game opens right inside Telegram, nothing to install.
