Clone Room B:
Hiya! This is a new take on a game I hosted a while back. It kinda resembles mafia, although somewhat less so with the new changes. Regardless, it is a game of information and deception.
Premise:
During an experimental mishap, a troubled Hero has accidentally created a large number of evil Clones that all look like his/her Lover. In order to bring the universe back into balance, the Hero must find the real Lover among the Clones and dispose of the rest before they are able to break out of containment and take over the world.
Required players: 8+
> One player is the Hero.
> One player is the Lover.
> One player is a Friend.
> Five+ players are Clones.
> Among the Clones, one player is a Copy.
> Among the Clones, one player is an Impersonator.
> Among the Clones, one player is an ANDROID.
Gameplay:
> Before the game starts, the host PMs each player their role.
> The host then reveals the Hero's identity to everyone in-thread, and the game begins.
> When the Hero is ready, s/he proceeds to pick one player who s/he thinks is the Lover.
> When a player is picked, that player wins the game, and his/her role is revealed.
> If the picked player is the Lover, the Hero team wins the game and all remaining Clones lose the game.
> If the picked player is not the Lover, the next turn begins.
> The Hero gets X picks depending on the total number of players (2 picks at 8 players).
> If the Hero runs out of picks, the Hero team loses the game, and all remaining Clones win the game.
Role Info:
> Each non-Hero player starts the game knowing the role of another random non-Hero player.
> The Lover is on the Hero team, and is trying to get picked by the Hero.
> The Friend is on the Hero team, and each turn, the Friend may choose to investigate a target player, learning their role through PM the next turn.
> The Clone is a villain whose goal is to get picked by the Hero before the Lover is picked. Clones also win the game when the Hero runs out of picks.
> The Copy is a Clone who, when picked by the Hero, causes the Hero to lose an additional pick.
> The Impersonator is a Clone who appears to be the Lover, even when investigated by the Friend.
> The ANDROID is a Clone who loses the game when picked by the Hero, also granting the Hero two additional picks.
Victory/Defeat:
> The Hero team wins the game if the Hero picks the Lover. All remaining Clones lose the game.
> If the Hero does not pick the Lover before s/he is out of picks, the Hero team loses the game, and all remaining Clones win the game.
> By default, players who are picked by the Hero win the game.
Regulatory Rules:
> No communicating about the current game outside of the game thread.
> No "secret handshake" types of communication, in-thread or anywhere else. This includes things like posting screenshots or using external means as "proof" of something.
> It's possible to cheat... please don't. Remember that this is a game, and the point of games is to have fun!
> Turns can last however long it takes the Hero and other action roles to make decisions, but shouldn't exceed 48 hours.
> Players who have won or lost the current game before it has ended may post one final time in the thread before the game ends. After that, they are not allowed to post again until the game ends.
