Getting Started
Play in person with no moderator - the app narrates the night, and everyone plays from their own phone.
Narrated mode runs an in-person game without a human moderator. Everyone at the table joins from their own phone by scanning a QR code. When night falls, the app narrates out loud: it wakes each role in turn, collects each action silently on that player's phone, and announces the outcome in the morning.
The host is a player too. In moderator mode one person runs the night and sits out of the game; in narrated mode the whole group plays - including whoever created the game.
The night is spoken with a real voice, so all eyes stay closed until a role is called. A few lines from the game:
Narration currently speaks a limited set of languages; more are on the way.
When your role is called, your phone wakes up and shows your choices - pick a target and the narrator moves on. Everyone else's phone stays on a sleeping screen, so nothing on the table gives you away.
Your phone also gives a light buzz when it's your turn, so you can keep your eyes shut and still catch your wake-up.
Day: discuss and vote
Night: the town sleeps
Both modes are for playing in the same room, with the same roles and rules. Pick by what your group needs:
In the app, tap “Moderator” and choose “The app narrates”. Add the roles you want to the pool.
Players scan the QR code on your screen (or tap the share link) and take a seat with their name.
Roles are dealt secretly to each phone. Read yours, keep it close, and don't let anyone peek.
The narrator takes over: it runs the night, wakes each role, and announces the dawn. You just play.
It's the newest way to play, and we're still tuning it. If a line sounds off or something breaks, tell us on Discord
Same roles, same wake order, same rules as any in-person game - the narrator just does the talking.
