Ultimate Werewolf (EN)

A village suspects that werewolves are hiding in plain sight. Ultimate Werewolf gives a large group secret roles and a shared mystery, then asks everyone to argue, persuade and decide whom they trust.

During the night, hidden roles act while the village sleeps. By day, players discuss the events and vote on who may be a werewolf. Villagers must identify the threat before their numbers dwindle; werewolves try to survive the accusations and steer suspicion towards someone else.

Different roles add information and unexpected complications, so the moderator can tailor a session to the group's experience and size. A confident accusation may be genuine insight or a well-performed bluff. Listening to who changes their story and when can be as valuable as a role's special ability.

Ultimate Werewolf is designed for bigger gatherings that enjoy lively conversation and theatrical deception. Its guided role selection helps groups get started, while later games can use more of the available possibilities. The best sessions leave everyone debating which moment first exposed the hidden team.
