You might have heard that I'm trying to make a game as an Halloween event which is planned after the Zedkins meeting on the 27th.
I basically tried to port a game like Town of Salem to be playable in Minecraft. It has a few aspects borrowed from Clue/Cluedo and might have some similarities with the 2016 LVS Halloween event.
In the game your objective as the "Guests" to Sir Mupkin's birthday party is to find and vote for the witches to be burned, while as the witches your goal is to "abduct" the guests and stay alive until you've gotten all the Guests.
The roles are randomly given out but you also have characters that you can choose as your "player figure" (No tophat or racecar though, sorry).
A big part of the game is to run around, look for collectibles and show others what cards you have left (you only get 1 set of cards to vote, so choose wisely) while the Witches try to be sneaky and secretly deposit their votes and try to mutely organize themselves.
You can read up all the rules and some background in the WIP rules document here : https://docs.google.com/document/d/1iN9 ... sp=sharing
The thing is, I have no idea if the game actually works as intended and there are still a lot of rules I am uncertain about.
That's where I need your help!
I have prepared most of the game and the House it plays in (in region Zen) and I need at least 5 people for a first play test. You should read the rules before hand for that (please use this thread for questions or early feedback).
I would like to start the test games an hour before the next Zedkins, that would be 7pm UK time on the 13th October (Next Saturday)
I would love it, if you could write here if you can make it
Cya on Saturday!
