The Syndicate

A game that's exactly what it sounds like.

I've realized that games on this site tend to be complex and full of all sorts of different mechanics, and that's great. But I also strongly believe (and this belief is reinforced by my experiences in G-Man's Easter Mafia game running now) that sometimes a simple, no-frills game of Mafia will hit the spot, like a frosty treat on a hot summer day.

There will be up to 3 power roles, probably, but beyond that you're going to have to rely on good old fashioned scumhunting, consensus building, lynching, manipulating, lying and nightkilling to win the game. Closed set-up, featuring 12 to 15 ice cream cones versus 3 to 4 popsicles (or something) depending on player interest. Coming to a Syndicate near you.
