The Mafia game app that narrates for you
Werewolf Narrator is a free Mafia game app for playing in person. One phone deals the roles in secret, then a recorded narrator runs the whole party game: it wakes the Mafia, the Detective and the Doctor, announces who was taken out at dawn and runs the vote. Nobody has to sit out as moderator.
Hear the Mafia narrator

The Mafia wake
“Mafia, open your eyes. Silently choose your target.”
The Detective
“Detective, open your eyes. Point to a player to investigate.”
The town wins
“The last of the Mafia is gone! The town wins!”

Pass the phone to see roles
Each player taps to see their role in secret, then hands the phone on. Nobody, not even the host, sees anyone else's card.

The narrator runs the night
A recorded voice puts the town to sleep and wakes each role in turn. Whoever holds the phone taps the choices; the app keeps track of who was targeted and saved.

Dawn, debate and the vote
The narrator announces who was taken out, starts the discussion timer and runs the vote. It checks who has won after every night and day.
The Mafia roles it deals
Why use an app for Mafia?
The host gets to play
Nobody has to sit out as moderator. The app does the narrating, so every seat at the table is a player.
No mistakes in the night
Roles are called in the right order and the app remembers every target and save, so nobody is wrongly announced dead.
Atmosphere built in
A recorded noir narrator, rain and storm ambience and a ticking day timer make it feel like a show, not a spreadsheet.
Works anywhere
It runs in your phone's browser with no download or account, and keeps working offline once it has loaded.
