Highly popular game in Russia, they call it "Mafia"
It switched to werewolves when it went onto an app to play.
@@kitkakittehNope, I've been playing the game for years and it's been called Werewolves for as long as I know.
Mafia is a more complex version of it isn't it?
@@Arkantos117 I can't remember significant differences, but last time it was twenty years ago, and I'm not sure 😎
Same in Poland. Some great times I've had playing it ^^
its important to notice, that in this game people is aware that there are 2 wolves, giving them already information... in reality people dont even know they are playing this game and are unaware of the qty of wolves.
Well it’s about 3% by population. If you must know. However you can endlessly generate them via privation.
I think the real villains are the lies villagers tell each other and themselves though. That they let drive them. They only really have to like themselves more than they like you.
There’s this idea that humans are fundamentally good. A lot of Enlightenment thinkers thought that. Whereas a lot of collectivists thought people were fundamentally evil.
Well in reality, it’s far easier to choose to be evil than good. There are 3% who are born ailing from malady of the mind. More who acquire it young. The conclusions of enlightenment thinkers allows for the most to choose approximate good most efficiently however.
Funny how that ruse was pulled. Now villagers are naive, dependent, and weak. Because they don’t know what they are capable of. The strong on the other hand are considered werewolves because they don’t know what actual werewolves look like. And so those capable of both strength and compassion are the most susceptible to accepting that accusation. To failing to be what they ought.
Scary thought
Idk, I think some of us know we are in this game.
@@dorian_anna ah yes but not everyone, I would say we are the minority
If more are waking up?
This is why education and curiosity are important traits to have.
So exactly what the oligarchy and media do to the country
100%
YUuuuuuUP!
Right on!!! Right on!!!
Werewolf, Mafia, Town of Salem, Among Us, we as humans just love social deduction games
I wanna add The Resistance to your good list.
The game in OP has no deduction. There's no info to go off of.
@@broobit7540 The technical "deduction" in Werewolf is just trying to figure out if someone's lying to you, more than anything else
Mafia was a really fun game in high-school.
@broobit7540 did you listen to how the game works? If you cant figure the simole game out thats on you
"When you have hidden information, you can completely manipulate a large group of people." - Well said!
Jesus said this, according to Luke
”For nothing is secret that will not be revealed, nor anything hidden that will not be known and come to light.“ Luke 8:17
I genuinely feel bad for people thinking God is not omnipresent. I mean, I been there but I ain’t going back either lol
Like the laws our government make after laws they make for the public.
@@CJ-dt5mhYou can’t count it as useful information until you prove it
So whats the hidden information?
@@mffthefrog1307 no, that’s incorrect
You can’t count anything Jesus says as useless until you disprove Him. No one has ever disproved Jesus, ask C.S. Lewis
There are 7 types of light known to man, 6 are invisible to the naked eye. Don’t deceive yourself friend, put in the work
If you genuinely want to know God, He’s made it incredibly easy & He will bear witness of Himself by His Holy Spirit
”Jesus answered and said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” Nicodemus said to Him, “How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born?” Jesus answered, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You must be born again.’ The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit.”“ John 3:3-8
The most convincing person with the most trustworthy face will always get the team on their side
As someone who's won a game of this with about 20 players, this is true. It gets so intense when there just 3 of us left and you have to keep your cool and manipulate a villager to vote out the other
The most charismatic convincing person with sociopathic tendencies
DAMN !! What a insightful experiment...that's crazy. And true..
“you ever heard of werewolf?”
“no.”
“ok well have you ever heard of Among Us?”
“oh yeah.”
edit: the reason i chose among us to reference was because it was at least relevant in the past few years, my bad i didn’t know about a 40 year old game.
Exactly 😂
It's more like town of Salem then amoung us
Among Us and Town Of Salem are video games inspired by this original game.
What about TTT?
@@th3g00seexplaining to newborn just wasting your time brother.
"An Unimformed Majority Will Always Lose A Battle Of Information Against An Informed Minority"
Welcome To Politics!
It's kind of sad that most people are more Interested in naming and dating the game.Just goes to show even when informed the majority choose not to understand but argue banality.
Even if the majority was to be given the information they need, not everyone but a major percentage would stick to their beliefs and information they have.
Majority of people are stubborn, egotistical and arrogant i.e. not open to listen let alone adopt new information or belief.
Thats among for sure
This video is soooo interesting. (Never heard of the game before.) And so simple. For one thing, it ably explains why the first target of a burgeoning elite is mass-education. By way of extension, the more ignorant become the masses, the more power gets concentrated until-like the Sun King, an Emperor or a Czar-it ends up in a single pair of hands.
This is the battle the US is fighting at the moment. Fighting for it’s life!
And this game is being played on the western world right now. The woke agenda, the importation of unwanted migrants, all the propaganda against whites, and all the cancel culture is part of the game.
This is our democracy.... And you just proved how it can be manipulated
If you're referring to America, then you must be a leftist because America isn't a democracy. You're the uninformed majority. 😂
Turned into a hit TV show, ‘Traitors’.
Oh is that what traitors is about
Interesting! Never knew the origin, and I never heard it called werewolf before! I grew up playing this and we always called it Mafia, Assassin, and once I heard it be referred to as Silent Killers. We played it in Sunday school but replaced the werewolves and villages with Jedi and Sith. We also added a medic element who would wake up after the “Sith” killed and went back to sleep, and the medic would point at someone to save them. If the person the medic picked was the one the Sith killed, that person would be saved. If the medic picked the wrong person, then obviously whoever the Sith picked would die. In high school we played a version of this and my history teacher would use the deaths as a fun teaching method and teach us about ancient ways people used to kill each other ritualistically. He was a cool teacher.
I was sure that "medic" (we had mafia and police) was always in the game XD
Yeah I’ve heard a Batman version where the commissioner was the one who saves but the main version I know is mafia, sheriff who checks people out each night to see if they are the mafia, and the doctor who saves.
We need more teachers like this..
Same
When did he say the werewolves were informed? Hid retelling of the rules seems incomplete. I had never heard of the gane before today
1991: Oh you mean "Mafia."
2015: Oh you mean "Town of Salem."
2020: Oh you mean "Among Us."
2024: Oh..."Werewolf?" Sounds like a fun game.
It was always called werewolf you just havent heard of the named since most people called it mafia
Bro acts like it was invented this year 😂
werewolf was super popular in 2017 lmao
@@uncoolgnome6840 No it was called Mafia first lmao. It was also called "City in Palermo" or Night falls in Palermo" in much of Europe. And again this used the Mafia theme.
Andrew Plotkin was the first person to add the Werewolf theme to it a decade later because he found it more fitting with the hiding and killing at night.
The Werewolf theme has obviously never taken off as large because the game still is mostly referred to by Mafia.
This is weird since any villagers with a smart person would've came up with a damned code to figure out the wolves. The wolves would've pretended and acted more friendly. The regular villager's would've been quietly wondering.
The game gets far more easy if you get more experienced. I played it a lot of times with different clients in therapy to be better in spotting manipulation. The villagers have to use rational arguments and need to stop thinking from their pov. They need a more team focused approach. Because the wolves can only manipulate with emotions and have to try to isolate the villagers. Once you know that... So much harder for the wolves. It's more like: the stronger the community, the harder it gets for parasites
Ooh, i never thought of it like that.
He has a very good point, actually.
in America, we call it Mafia, but now we call it Among Us
Nah, Mafia isn't what it was.. .now a days in the US it's called The Democrat Party
In Russia we call it mafia as well
It's also "Secret Hitler"
In Iran we call it mafia or spy
and you play it with a deck of cards and not have to buy a special game for it.
The problem is there’s a MAJOR issue knowing what you’re being informed with and how accurate or twisted it is.
Good day to you sir.
If you and your friend gets chosen as werewolves. You understand how you know all the others are villagers, right.
That is the information he means. Noone else knows who is a werewolf and who is a villager.
The werewolves know. They thereof have hidden information.
There is no problem with knowing the accuracy of that information.
What you're probably referring to is the information the other players give you during the game. That is not the hidden information that gives the advantage that was the main point of the clip.
If not then please elaborate.
Sincere regards.
@@user-gh9cs9xu8f I was just referring to the fact he was commenting about the nature of the game. That an uninformed group is dangerous. I’m simply saying that it’s also just as dangerous to have an “informed” group of its fake or twisted information, which unfortunately our society is riddled with.
@@TenheadLifeguess you have to decide
Trust your intuition and eyes and not what others want you to believe.
Pretty straight forward tbh. If Obama, for example, supports it. You do the opposite. Because he is essentially Satan. Same goes for Hillary Clinton, Justin Trudeau etc.
If a group of demons want you to do something, you do the opposite. It’s actually never been more clear.
I understand where you're coming from, and it is a good thought to keep in mind, but the word "informed" implies proper and correct information. Essentially, the game is proving the point that you are making here
That’s a great game giving examples of how Democracy is flawed.
This is more informative about politics then any degree in political science.
In today's terminology, it's "Offline Among Us"
I swear if I go to a camp out and a scout calls Mafia/Wearwolf "Offline Among Us" that kid is going to be six feet under before the end of the night.
Town of Salem. That was widely popular before among us.
Amogus 🧯
the OG@@ItsChronoHawk
Nah among us has task and things to do. It's town of Salem you kill at night and then the villagers pick someone to linch, and like in town of Salem the villagers have no chance to walk in on the killer and report them. That's why it's easier to beat the killers in among us.
"Ever heard of a game called werewolf?"
"No"
"Well its just mafia"
Nah werewolves is way more fun. More roles assigned to people makes it more interesting
Idk about mafia but in France it’s called werewolf (loup-garou)
@@zapilux2278Le Werewolf
Among us :3
@@mubashirmohiuddin5346you know that you can modify the mafia and just add enough characters for almost everyone?
We played it often in the past, should be played in school with an open discussion afterwards to ask the children how the feeling was after they got blamed even they were innocent
Been playing that game for years!!! Never gets old and it’s so much fun!!
Ah yes, the OG among us.
yes and no town of Salem is the right answer
I always knew it as “mafia” where there is two mafia killers, one detective, one doctor, and the rest are villagers
In Italy we call it Lupus, and it's like the guy explains it. Except for some different figures, like the "curious child" who's the only villager allowed to open her eyes by night without getting noticed by wolves lest she gets killed. It's a very fun game to do.
You can also play with a vigilante
@@mr.bojangles9215can you explain how the vigilante fits in the game?
i know both wersions
Basically Werewolf, Mafia, Town of Salem are different versions of the same game, and each has their own extra roles, mostly for villagers because, as was said in the video, without those roles villagers lose most of the times
It's the moral behind the game that is important regardless of how it's called 💯
It’s so profound! When they played this game in 1955 at Stanford. I’d be more interested in all the data collected from online game, which they have used. It’s in the small writing you agreed to if you played.
We used to play this in elementary, but we called it "Mafia". Shoutout Mrs.Angie, you were a real one lmao
thanks
Thanks, but you were my least favorite student.....Go to the office!
les goo mrs angie 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I played Werewolf. It was a card game that we referred to as Ultimate Werewolf and it had a bunch more roles
How’s that work? Is it a mob boss/Hitman instead of villager/werewolf
Back then: “it’s called werewolf”
Now: “it’s called among us”
No it’s called mafia now
He's talking about the video game among us and has the same rules but with a added way to win
@@seabas12 Yes bro I realized but the real life game is called mafia. You don't go to a party and be like "hey guys wanna play among us in real life? 🤓🤓" do you?
@@pokemaster6573 no id say
“Hey guys wanna play werewolf”
This
Werewolf has spun off into several interesting board games and video games. There's one called The Resistance, specifically the Avalon version, where you choose people to go on a set amount of missions, and traitors can sabotage those missions. Most missions sabotaged or completed gives a win to the different sides.
The Avalon version is special because it includes several speciality roles where someone on the good side may have slivers of information about someone on the bad side, but have to avoid being targeted by an assassination. Another good guy may know who the person with intel is, and has to attempt to bait out the assassination on himself.
And there's several phases where someone can peek onto anyone elses card etc. And try to manipulate the blind into accidentally doing the wrong thing.
I love that game, the bigger group you play with the more fun it becomes.
Exactly. This is why a jury and courts are far from true justice
It’s the best there is in the world actually. Is it perfect, of course not because juries and courts can only work off the information they are presented and within the scope of knowledge of laws (that’s where the lawyers and judges come into play to help make sure law is being applied properly and understood by the jurors) and there is nowhere else where justice is given more of a chance than in the court system of your peers.
Hell the idea of being innocent and having to be proven guilty behind a shadow of a doubt is amazing and not many civilizations had that before America. Again, it’s not perfect and it seems a lot times we have to prove our innocence but, it’s having to be proven guilty beyond all reasonable doubt.
Back in the day the king or queen or emperor etc etc, just found your ass guilty and killed your behind.
I would apply the logic of this video against citizen populations against the elite and governments. They have the true power because, they hide knowledge from the citizens. They control the media (and we all know it’s rigged and owned by a few people and it’s why they repeat the same damn scripts all over the place by exact wordage even), the laws, financial systems, military, and more, Therefore, they take away the ability for us to have true justice and it’s why ignorant ass people (not just America but most countries as a whole) are easily deceived and pitted against their fellow citizen to make them get in line with the “program”; and the elite and governments of the world get away with what they do!
We are seeing it in action today live and well.
And now we call it "Among Us"
In among us evidence can be found but not in this case
@@OcesnepXav 2 imposters with rounds of conversation to find them how in the world would you classify that as very different that’s like saying then shape of a 🏀 and ⚽️ ball are very different
@@DP-gb8quonly problem with your comparison is that in among us you can see the imposter actively kill and you're able to report it, in mafia/werewolf no one is able to see who killed who
@@DP-gb8qu also you can watch people do tasks to clear them or to get them voted out which makes it so that you can counteract the imposters and inform the majority.
I mean... one is a card game and the other is on a pc/mobile. Of course it has to be more to make it interesting. But it's pretty much the same idea. So maybe the among us creators knew about this experiment
“AmongUs” before it was digital.
I played this version, but we called it “mafia” and there was a “doctor” and a “sheriff” who could save/investigate people during the night.
I played mafia and werewolf exactly once each. I wish more people played games like these in college than being on their phone or going out for a smoke during breaks.
No actually its town of salem not among us.
Ah, used to play the same game with different names. We used chess related names as it was chess club.
A very interesting game indeed
AMONG US
Bro that shits town of Salem
We called it Cops and Murderers lol nice to know it's a universal game
It isn't Universal. Russians invented it, others coped due to being too good.
*WHO* are the other team the 'Cops and Murderers' are up against?
@elrey8876 IIRC there are two murderers and the rest are cops, or there are two murderers and two cops and the rest are townfolk, and the murderers can only kill townfolk but only the cops can guess who the murderers are, but the cops can consult the townfolk. There are many versions to this game and it's been 20 years hahaha
Shit name
EXCEPT THAT IT'S NOT AN UNIFORMED MAJORITY. The villagers, no matter how many they are, only get a single kill per night. Same with the werewolves. Their numerical advantage in this case is identical.
“Have you ever heard of a game called werewolves?”
“No because it’s called Mafia”
The top comment made before this wrote the same thing...hmmmm
@@alejandroduranalvarez2431no one gives one smart arse
@@alejandroduranalvarez2431not the same thing bro
In France this game is named werewolf
@ArwinHessel both say that the original is the mafia they're just frazed differently
There are several of these games, "one night werewolf", the expansion pack " ultimate werewolf", " town of Salem" (online game), "Mafia", etc... Even "among us" (online) and "good cop, bad cop" are similar. My teen LOVES these games and we often play them in large group game nights. This is an interesting view of the game and I agree with it 100%. We actually use these games for critical thinking and debate. I do remember when we started learning these games I looked at my husband and said "oh crap, we are teaching our kids how to lie" 🤣
To win the game (no matter the side you are on) you need to employ statistics, reasoning, probability, debate, persuasion, lying, keeping a poker face, etc.... your teammates are pretty important too and leading is another skill in this. There is a lot to be learned while playing these games.
The fact you left out trouble in terrorist town is criminal
This sounds like basis for the BBC TV gameshow The Traitors. I didn't think I'd enjoy watching it but honestly became quickly obsessed.
"Among Us" too?
Glad you mentioned One night werewolf and ultimate werewolf. I played them both and they’re really fun!
There’s a cool game called Wolvesville that is very similar to
Highly popular game online, they call it "Among Us"
Beat me to it
Among us tho. I swear you can catch someone red handed. Get voted off. Not be the imposter. And next round they still question who the imposter was. 😅
Moral of the story: Among Us was created by a Russian sociology student 💀
Literally my first thought was among us 💀
Kids these days have never heard of trouble in terrorist town smh
@@jonbong8547 want to share your knowledge? Lol
@@savadoveIt’s a game mode in the sandbox game “Garry’s Mod” with a similar premise. There are some amount of traitors whose objective it is to kill all of the innocents. The traitors know who is on their team or not. The innocents have to kill the traitors but they don’t know who is on their side or not. Also everyone has guns. Among Us follows a similar premise, and it seems like both were derived from either Mafia/Werewolf or something similar.
@@aw3someisme469 seems like it, this version seems scarier 😂
In a few years, someone somewhere will ask "have you ever heard of a game called Amogus?" with a completely serious face
I dearly hope the meme name completely overwrites the real name soon
"two people are designated as what they would call a 'sussy baka'..."
@@kapitankapital6580"so...what a buffalo covered in sauce gonna do in this game exactly?"
Town of Salem came before and actually has a werewolf role...
Have you ever heard of a game called "Town of Salom"
Blood on the clocktower is this, but significantly more detailed
They need to make this a horror movie not the actual event but the game being played itself
I know it by the name of “Mafia” and it was one of my go-to games when I was teaching musical theatre to kids. We also had a couple other roles including “medic” where they could choose someone to save, and “detective” where they could guess if someone was the werewolf and if they got it right they’d have to convince everyone else who the actual werewolf was during the group meeting without giving away their role. It gets people thinking and problem solving, and specifically gets them paying attention to body language and non verbal clues. I think it’s actually a wonderful lesson in how to read people when they’re lying or withholding info.
In the swiss version someone is the "peaky girl" or "insomniac" and they are allowed to peak. Then theres the hunter who can take someone with themselves when they die, then cupid who can make 2 People fall in love and if one dies then both die, then the witch that can rescue someone on the brink of deatg once and kill someone once. Then theres the "seer" that can check one persons role each night. I also think theres a thief that can switch roles with someone.
YESSS when I was in band back in middle school and high school I would always play this game it was so much fun because half of us would just pick to kill our friends.
You cannot truly “read” people its pseudoscience
Police too, right?
"Have you ever heard of a game called Werewolf?"
"Yes"
*video ends*
This is pure comedy and an underrated comment.
That was not the Werewolf (World of Darkness) that I had heard of and played
😂😂
😂😂😂
im replaying this bcs if i commented it would get lost.
about the moral of the game (information and lack of it) its bs, bcs it demonstrates power dominance, not dominance of information bcs they already know same thing, that there are 2 werewolf
This shouldn’t surprise anyone. It should be common knowledge. Common sense.
This is like watching someone explain Go Fish like it's a new concept.
The game is also called Mafia. The guy missed one important thing. Then everyone closes their eyes, the mafia guys can open their eyes and see who is mafia. The game is super interesting.
Nah different games in my country
Then how do they decide who to kill???
That is what he says , because minority of people have hidden information, they can manipulate others who dont know the information to kill each others
@@Touchybananawhen night comes, the mafia members open their eyes again and point to the person they want to kill, it's possible that they disagree but usually the godfather have the last say, after that the person who's making sure no one is cheating ask everyone to open their eyes and give them the news, of course there are lots of different possibilities but this is the simple answer to your question
If I'm not mistaken point of both is same, though through time they differ from each other, as i recall mafia has certain amount of roles, when werewolf nowadays have almost everyone with different role but werewolves still bad guys
"Ever heard a game called werewolf?"
"No"
"Okay, how about AMONGUS."
In Among us the villagers aka Crewmates have some information
The games are similar but if you really want the experience of the game they describe I’d recommend town of Salem
@@bensecrist6157 oh shit I totally forgot about that. I remember playing that game with my friends back in 2015.
Werewolf was such a fun game back then, we even played it in class at the end of the semester. There was so much tension and drama, the game would even take hours just to finish.
Now its just Among us..
When the werewolf is sus ‼️‼️‼️
in real life a werewolf can make an other werewolf killed if a villager gave him a very good reason , loyalty is so rare .....
Really interesting! That's why hidden organisations and actors in states are so successfull. There are so many action films with plots like this, but I think in reality in most cases the good guys loose.
English speakers call it werewolves, in Poland we call it Mafia and i gotta say it's an entertaining bonding experience, a good brain exercise, a group psychological adventure and it holds so much potential as we would always add characters with their own roles assigned to them. Love this game, too bad i dont get to play it anymore
English speaker here, I've always called it Mafia, but a friend of mine who is also an English speaker but was raised pretty far from me calls it Werewolf
I speak English and have never heard it called werewolf
In america we call it mafia
I'm an English speaker and I immediately opened up the comments to see who remembers it as mafia. We also had added rules tho such as sheriff's and nurses and a jury etc. the more people playing the better
Im 9 and i call it among us
This game is also quite popular in our country. Its called "elections".
Lol Wow
Vivek for vp. A wolf in sheep's clothing. ijs
Perfectly said
@@wuttaworld wow
Rothschilds...
It's no wonder Among Us came out during the pandemic. They were trying to tell us something.
I have played that game a lot, but a modified version of it, adding more roles, like the protector who can protect one person each night, the witch who sees who will die and can heal and kill once the entire game, the hunter who if he is voted out take one with him and a few other roles, it rebalaces the game which makes it more fun to play.
Sounds like most governments play this game on a daily basis
That was his point I believe. And the students
government actually tired to pull the “ uk hasn’t got enough troops” card but not even 2-1 weeks ago they announced their sending another 2 billion to ukrane 😂😂😂
@@dash7661 There's 8 billion people in the world, but the UK has 67 million citizens, so a 4th of the world has offered their troops to the UK? 💀

my type of games
You call it "Werewolf" I call it "Among Us"
fr i was about to say that
same
i call it town of salem
this was the premise of among us
I mean, that just reveals your age lol. Clearly the older name is the correct one
And there was no werewolves. All the cards actually say villager and the teachers card says serial killer. It's ment to test the social empathy of people in a group environment given limited information of a life or death situation.
Media and the government are the two werewolves in the game of life
An uninformed majority will always lose the battle of information against an informed minority 👈🏻
Thank you. I didn't want to have to say it.
*AN UNINFORMED* majority will willingly sacrifice themselves for the benefit of the informed minority... is what MAGA America has taught me.
Its pretty well balanced actually
White people werewolves
exactly what is happening right now
I played this at a lunch table when I was in school, but we called our mafia
Werewolf has cards, we used to tap for mafia. Plus we had doctor and detective in ours
"Boss! We got a rat!"
I loved mafia but I was always first out I still don’t know why
Ours was named something else I don't remember. But it was at a church overnighter for high schoolers. We were given a card from a deck. The jokers were the serial killers, and we were each either villagers, which were number cards, Kings, Queens, 10's were Dutchess or Dukes, depending on your gender. I don't know why they did that but 9's were sherrifs. That was hard to remember unless we played it several times which we did. There were 100 something kids. We played for like 3 hours. It was SO FUN.
Thats mafia😂😂
Highly popular game among children, they call it "Among us"
): kids these days back in my day
I thought the same thing.
It's not, among us is cops and robbers in stealth mode
back in my day.
Yeah, though that’s a little different because you can catch them in the act.
Kids Call it “among us”
noooooo there's a big difference
give you young folks some credit about improving something from before the 1800s and the Russians claim it's their's
@@MWB2Bleachfan well Town of Salem is where the credit is due given it's the same game lol.
Nah its called town of salem 😂
see This person >@@user-he9ih5ss5s
He’s just saying that people are naïve and malleable, shocker.
Bro literally just explained and over complicated mafia 💀
“You ever hear a game called Werewolf?”
“No”
Explains…….
“Oh you mean Among Us
I was just commenting about that😂
Literally this lmao
among us was based off social games like this one. werewolf (mafia as it’s sometimes called) has been around since the 90’s, maybe earlier. among us was just the first version that’s actually fun for more than 8 minutes
Among Us definitely was based on the Russian Werewolf game.
It's just town of Salem
New bloods calling it “Among us” when it’s actually “Town of Salem”
Back in the day it was TTT
@@judejameson3863mafia*
@@judejameson3863 this too yes!
Once our big company of friends played mafia, my mom played as well, and there were three people left only including my mom, and I thought she was mafia. But she responded that she was so upset about my thoughts, that I literally broke her heart and she would never ever forgive me for her whole life if i didn't change my mind. So I changed my mind and guess what - she WAS the last Mafia. That was a KO for me. I couldn't believe she lied to me that way.
it's a battle between stupid and smart, evil and kind. I wish ppl would understand how evil society is bc most don't think further
There’s also One Night Ultimate: Werewolf. Even Vampire and Alien as expansions. Each player has a role to do during the night phase, except villagers never wake up. The Seer looks at a players card, the troublemaker exchanges cards between two other players, etc. So! You may very well have STARTED as a werewolf, but if there’s a troublemaker or a robber, you may not be that anymore. It’s pretty insane
I love this game
Town of Salem is the same thing with a couple extra roles and bad teams
He’s talking about a simpler version of mafia. I guess that’s why the villagers have information gathering abilities though. Otherwise the mafia would always win.
One night warewolf is very fun though I’ve never tried the expansion
In Poland this game is called "Mafia" and many youngsters and students play it. It's a lot of fun 😅
I'm american and also know the game as Mafia
В России она тоже мафией называется
Werewolf, mafia, paranoia, traitor in terrorist town, among us
@@Canodiabloin Norway do you play it as guess who has chlamydia?
No, tak, to jest Mafia.
All of America calls this Mafia haha
Pretty sure it came to the US back in 1986 and it was first called "Are You a Werewolf" Then it was Mafia in 2007. The designers were Dimitry Davidoff and Andrew Plotkin on the first version and only Davidoff was mentioned on the second one. But it was also public domain so many other publishers had a version, but the 1986 seem to be the oldest published version.
Not completely wrong... But also statistically the werewolves have a massive advantage just by pure numbers.
There are many games like this. The one I usually played was called mafia, but there was one killer; one sheriff, and one medic. Mafia is the murderer, sheriff is a good guy who can also kill who he thinks is the murderer, and the medic can save/protect a person and prevent them from getting killed
Us Germans have a variation as well:
Numbers of werewolf's depend on the players, usually a 5:1 ratio. Within the villagers there are normally 2 witches, each having a potion of murder and one of healing, a thief wich can steal your card, a hunter who can take out another player if he's eliminated, a armour who makes 2 people's lives connected (if one player dies the other does to, there is always only one pair of loved ones) and a mayor who is elected by everyone on day 0 and has his regular vote plus a extra vote.
All in all, this can possibly lead to:
1 Werewolf kill
2 Witch kills
1 Hunter kill
1 Loved one suicide
1 Vote kill
All in all that's 6 players out in day one.
Very cool
I once played a version where we had double roles and I was a lover (dies when the other lover dies) and a suicidal person (at night is just one of the villagers, but if is killed by the villagers during the day - winns whole game). I stirred villagers into believing that my lover lied and was actually a mafia member, they believed me and sentenced her, what killed me by proxy and I won😂😂😂😂.
In Belgium we have this:
2 warewolfs
1 witch
1 cupid
Villagers (depends how many there are playing)
And 1 sheriff (I think, I haven't played it in a long time)
The witch can kill one person and protect one person from getting killed for one round. The cupid can pair up 2 people to be in love, when one partner dies, the other one dies too.
We play it in school whenever we have free time
Your thinking of Town of Salem
So basically, Among Us.
This was my thought too.
The other way around...
Except this is older and killing is more sneaky as Among Us you can see a kill
its what among us is based on.
I think more Town of Salem, just with 1 non-town role.
The sociology student was Dimitry Davidoff and originally the game was 'Mafia' when he invented it in 1987, not 'werewolf'. The latter wouldn't arrive until ten years later.
Simulations seem to suggest that completely random choices are actually the optimal strategy, which tends to disprove the idea that 'an informed minority generally wins'. Likewise, if the minority is too small the odd tilt against them as well.
But if the werewolves win ‘most’ of the time, then this doesn’t prove that an informed minority ALWAYS beats an uninformed majority, no? Because for that to be true, the werewolves would have to win 100% of the time.
I played a game like this in middle school called “Psycho”. Same rules, but only one killer, or psycho, in a group of 15 kids. Shoutout to Mrs. Harper for arranging the games at recess.
Classic Mrs. Harper!✌️✌️
Same played this in year 6 I think it has different names like mafia or something played in uk
Was this in Tampa? Had a elementary teacher named MRS Harper very nice lady.
@@chriselliott5089 no, Lodi.
That sounds so familiar! I know that I've had to have played this somewhere as a child!
Better yet, don't tell anyone if they killed a villager or a werewolf and they only find out when a set number of turns passes. Give the wolves an opportunity to not kill overnight sometimes. If the game doesn't end immediately, the villagers may continue to kill even after both wolves are dead. Let's take the sociopathy deeper, guys
Interesting but when do they know team A or team B won?
@@alexsherstiuk2537you have to basically decide collectively “okay no one has died for three nights, I think we won” but then the strategy is to kill one person as a werewolf then just go dead silent, so you have to have a maximum number of nights before the werewolf starves or something
There's an online game that's very similar with many other variables you can add if wanted called Town Of Salem. You can add things like a jailer who can jail someone for the night, a sheriff who has a gun with 3 shoots and can kill someone they suspect but if the person is innocent they die instead.
That would just be a zero sum game then... because everyone would be paranoid that the wolves are still out there and keep killing and turning on each other
this is in fact how you play it; I've never heard of anyone playing it the way he's describing here. The judge isn't supposed to reveal the identity of the dead until either party wins.
Ran a game once with no wolves (it's called the black plague variant)
The villagers can only win if they figure out there's no wolves before there's only two of them left.
First night I randomly choose someone who dies, next night it's the last person who died and so on...
This is by far one of the most friendship breaking version of the game.
It's been 4 years now and people still talk about it to this day and how much they were at each other's throats.
Needless to say you can only get away with this once but it's worth it to see the look of absolute rage and anger when people are literally all innocent accusing each other of being guilty
He just explained among us.
“An uninformed majority will always lose a battle of information against an informed minority.”
I've watched the video too
@@mvo9975 I've read the comment too
wow this comment adds so much that the video couldn’t…
So why did Biden win? Why r ppl more woke..... n gay
@@mvo9975thanks fitness bro 😂 Einstein over here
Here in Belgium it’s a popular childrens/teenagers game too. We usually have a few more characters added too, among the villagers: a peeping tom, who is allowed to secretly open their eyes during the night; a mayor, whose vote counts for two; a witch, who has the ability to revive someone, or kill an extra person; etc.
Same! I grew up in canada tho haha, played this game loads as a kid/teen at summer camp and stuff. We called it werewolf, but did a game almost identical called Mafia (which didn't have the doctor, witch, sheriff xtras)
Sounds pretty cool I see it surpassing Monopoly
@@jamiethehedgehog403 I mean, it's not exactly the same, but, Town of Salem is kinda similar in concept.
You can use playing cards or dedicated cards for those rolls. One Night Werewolf is a spinoff game with loads of roles. Town of Salem and Blood on the Clocktower are similar social deduction games with lots of roles and new rules as well.
I’m curious if anyone can tell me how does the peeping Tom not completely break the game can he not directly reveal what he saw or what?
The key term here is "uninformed". Let's not make life changing decisions without knowing all the facts. This does not mean turning to social media...that's just opinion... which is NOT fact. Inform yourself. Stop being lazy and letting others make your decisions for you.
That explains exactly what's been going on people need to become more informed
I've played this a lot of times, but i've never connected it to the implied motto: the power of information. Cool short.
provided your information is correct
The student's name was Dimitry Davidoff, and he invented it as a way of teaching psychology to high school students (who he was teaching at the same time as getting his college education). He originally conceived of it as "Mafia", which is a name it is still widely known by today. It was Andrew Plotkin, an American game designer, who came up with the name Werewolf.
And then later worked into a game called town of salem.
I can see why it's so popular the premise is very intriguing and a poignant and fun way of teaching.
They got some bright thinkers over there in Russia.
I was gonna say isn’t this just town of Salem
And then they saw "the Thing" and the story went to space....
Yeah, I was thinking to myself
... Mafia is the original.
Dude described among us.😂
He basically just described Among Us
I always knew this as Mafia, and at Camp, we would play with the:
Mafia, the killer
The angel, who can save one person
And the milkman, who can give someone milk( it’s pointless)
And it would go for multiple rounds until they voted out the mafia or oh, but (predetermined number) villagers died.
But then I recently discovered a game called One Night werewolf, which has many roles, is run by an app, the werewolf doesn’t kill someone, but instead they have to get the villagers to convince them that the werewolf is someone else.
The point of the milkman is that you know he isn’t the murderer if he gives milk, so almost useless but adds slightly more strategy
In Spain we call la puta (the prostitute) but we keep our eyes open. There IS a killer, a police, a prostitute and rest are civilians. The killer kills winking his eye to a civilian, if he winks at the police he looses, if the police sees him wink he looses too. The civilians do nothing and the prostitute can revive someone by throwing a kiss
Milkman 💀
i think the point of a milkman is that he delivers at night and if a person is mafia he can't be out and killing at that night. So if milkman delivered to someone and no one got killed you know who is mafia
I AM THE MILKMAN, MY MILK IS DELICIOUS
I'm from Germany. Here the game "Werwolf" is really popular, especially among young people, teens and kids. There is also a variant called "murder in Palermo", which referes to the Italian Mafia.
In Germany I played something similar called secret hitler
you mean "especially _among us_"?
It's really popular in Belgium as well. I was a bit confused when they said that they hadn't heard of the game.
@ZTTINGS that's what we have
yeah, we call it mafia
I call this Town of Salem. Older folks call it Mafia. Kids call it amogus.
We played that back in high-school in drama class.
What is interesting is asking people why they chose the people they did. The individual styles of profiling and understanding of hierarchy, strategy are really fascinating.
That’s why the MSM is so DANGEROUS and why we need Trump back in office!! #TRUMP2024
In Werewolf Online the deduction usually just falls in the hands of "it was a 50/50 but this one is more careful"
I love these kind of stories. Unfortunately there are fewer and fewer people having the realisation that this type of thing is played out in real life and is indicative of human nature.
It really is an, they think your nuts for saying it
You underestimate the common person. It's not that we don't understand what's going on, it's just that we all have shit to do.
I think everyone knows. That’s why political leaders fear monger. They can secure elections by dehumanizing their opponents and in turn the people who support the opposition.
Just had a friend say “okay after this election we should really change this government stuff cause no one is happy about what’s going on”
He fears he has to wait because he’s afraid of his team losing even though he doesn’t support who he’s voting for. Tbh I feel like this will never change. Listen to most Americans. Most if not all say the government needs to improve significantly no matter who they vote for and admit they aren’t happy. It won’t happen till the people are sick enough to actually do something.
@@eshelmenit makes for a good distraction and excuse to be ignorant
@@ronrico2620 That has nothing to do with it. People can't just disregard their own personal responsibilities to their families, based on an ideal that we generally don't agree with. That's insanely foolish.
This concept is not mind blowing... This is an incredibly common game with dozens of names.
Love the game, we called it "Mafia" except there was an additional character "The Detective" that could take out a mafia member in the night if they guessed the person. My only issue with the speaker is imo he's talking like this was some sort of revelation that two people equipped for a situation would prevail over several who aren't. To me that's sort of implied.
