[Imp]

Boosted Survivors is a 0.99$ Steam game about upgrading your character in arbitrary ways as you fight waves of enemies. Hence, collecting modifiers.

My win condition was mostly accurate...

But A, I only needed 3 modifiers, and B, I also had to be the last player alive.

(I lied because the true win condition sounds too Serial Killer-y.)

I forgive you for lying.

It's also like Max kinda half-pushing to not be the last out; early on he was cagey and outright denied his wincon requirement too, before claiming it (and still could have been lying for all we knew at the time).

If I'd known you needed to be last alive AND known about mirror stance, I'd have asked Tric not to visit you and trust you to visit him if you could.  Or see if he'd agree to wait until your mirror stance wore off and then visit you.

Since you need to be last alive and have my transform candy, I get to win as long as you win since you need to be last alive; everything else would have played out essentially the same, timing of my death, Verm's targeting, no need for FoU to bite Max.

Complex game.

Thank you all for letting as many of us win as possible!

Imp was an honorary Chatterbox. Yes that's my inspiration for the role.

I wondered about that

Maybe one day I'll even be an aspiring dragon!

NJW, and perhaps NQT too, excellently well done with design and balance!  This was a joy and I love how you wove everyone's requests into a coherent whole.  Tremendous fun and incredible artistry of creation and blending and balancing.

CM, I regret we did not succeed in saving you too.

Spoiler: Mechanics (click to show/hide)

Phases
There are alternating day and night phases. All actions resolve at the end of the phase they occur in. Unless otherwise specified, you may perform one action per phase. Only actions with the tag [day] may be performed during the day.


Win Conditions
These are checked at the start of every phase. If a player has won or lost, they leave the game at the start of that phase.
All win conditions are checked simultaneously. If one or more resolves, they are rechecked simultaneously.
For example: suppose Player P's win condition is that Q loses. If Q loses at the start of D2, P's win condition is rechecked, and resolves into a win.


Role Modifiers
These appears in square brackets in front of a role. A modified role is considered a role itself.
For example, if Player P's starting role was Example and they gained the modifier [Useful], their role would become [Useful] Example.
Note that role and alignment are not the same, just like in most games of mafia.
Role modifiers either apply to a role or they do not - you cannot have the same role modifier twice. There could be no [Useful] [Useful] Example role.
If you learn the name of a role modifier through receiving that modifier or learning that another player has it, you will be given a definition of that modifier.


Day Zero
There is no elimination on the first day, and the voted player is instead removed from the game for the first night. They can take no actions and any actions targeting them will fail


Statuses
A status is a state a player is in. This is not a role modifier. You retain all statuses when you die.
If you learn the name of a status through receiving that modifier or learning that another player has it, you will be given a definition of that status.


Tags
An action may have certain tags, describing what it can do. For example, actions generally cannot self-target. Actions with the [self] tag can ONLY self target.


Candy
If you have candy, you may choose to eat it during the night. You may eat all or any of the candy you have on the same night. Eating the candy consumes it. Eating candy is an action, and resolves before any other actions. It thus cannot be blocked or prevented by an action occurring on the same night.
If you learn the name of a type of Candy by receiving that modifier or learning that another player has it, you will be given told the effect of eating that Candy.


Deadchat
There will not be a deadchat.

NJW, and perhaps NQT too, excellently well done with design and balance!  This was a joy and I love how you wove everyone's requests into a coherent whole.  Tremendous fun and incredible artistry of creation and blending and balancing.

Thank you! Much of the balance is due to NQT, as is the fact that most of the unclear situations were sorted out before the game began.

To be honest, before NQT looked over it, I hadn't even properly specified the results of multiple Bite uses on the same night. Quite a few things like that needed fixing, and wouldn't have been if he hadn't brought it up.

That was probably one of the more successful versions of "everyone is third party" I've seen.

That's very kind of you.


Brief thoughts after running the game:

Imp, Juice and CM each chose to play their roles a bit differently than expected - Imp was very open, Juice tried to use the nightgame a great deal, and CM revealed the need to kill undead as part of their wincon, attempting to get other players onside. None of it bad ideas, though, and it was interesting to see it play out.

I think the main issue here was a lack of conflict after the Vampire hunt issue was resolved.

I do feel like Max's role could have been something that brought him into the game a bit more, funny as the initial idea was. Looking back on it, I think giving him a deadline and more ways to bribe/coerce people would have been an improvement.

FoU was similarly on the sidelines a bit. Finding a way to fold them back towards the central vampire/monster/undead/biting conflict would have been good.

I felt Tric's role was fine, but all in all there were a few too many roles whose wincons weren't as tangled up with other player's actions, so the main engine driving the game gave out as soon as the Imp/CM/Juicebox conflict was over. If I was to run it again, more focus on interconnection would definitely be the first thing to think about. Nonetheless, I'm reasonably happy with how it went.

There were some lucky coincidences which made giving the game a bit of a horror theme much easier - I think the game would have been less interesting without that. The alignment submissions were very fun to design roles for.

I know this was quite experimental, but it was fun to run, and hopefully reasonable to play, strange as it was. Thank you for participating!

[VermilionSkies]

This was a great game, thank you for your time in running it!
Also, most of you make for terrible food.

[Imp]

This was a great game, thank you for your time in running it!
Also, most of you make for terrible food.

OMG.  I can hardly imagine your likely flavor DMs!

[Imp]

This was my most, um, flavorful.

You prepare your stiching kit, apply local anaesthetics, inject healing serums and ensure that your veins are fed by numerous blood bags.

Someone does visit your room in the night, but merely keeps up a constant stream of inconsequential small talk.

If anyone does attack you, you fail to notice. It can be hard to tell which of the bloodstains, human organs and animal body parts on the floor are yours and which are looted from various graveyards, abbatoirs and rival mad science labs. You should really keep this place neater.

[VermilionSkies]

You were probably the most flavorful, Imp.
Followed by Juice, and then maybe Fallacy?
The rest were… I wouldn’t serve them to polite company. Maybe as snacks?
