8-Bit Mafia and 8-Bit Werewolf
This pack created by Michael Scott has been inspired by retro 8-bit pixel games from the 80s and 90s.
Mafia and werewolf are simple party games for 7+ players. Both games are a masterful creation of bluffing, paranoia, and mob rule. Mafia was created by Dimitry Davidoff in 1986. In 1997 Andrew Plotkin turned the game into werewolf. There are a plethora of published versions of both games, but I want to make one that is simple, portable, affordable and looks great.
