History TabletopGame / TheWerewolvesOfMillersHollow

* EverybodyDiesEnding: Happens if among three survivors, a pair of lovers executes a hunter [[TakingYouWithMe who shoots one of them]] and causes the other [[DrivenToSuicide to kill themselves]]. In this case there are no winners.
* FlockOfWolves: {{Inverted}} in the "black death" scenario. [[spoiler: There are no werewolves]].

''The Werewolves of Miller’s Hollow'' (''Les Loups-garous de Thiercelieux'') is French card game that is a reimagining of ''Mafia'', a [[ParlorGames parlor game]] of Russian origin. It is a more complex version of the original [[TabletopGame/Werewolf1986 Werewolf]], adding more characters to the mix. While it plays with cards, the real fun comes from the debates as the players try to spot the traitors among themselves.\\

* GameplayAndStorySegregation: If no one dies on the first night (either because the werewolves chose not to kill, the savior or the witch rescues the victim), the villagers have technically no reason to suspect that there are werewolves among them, yet it's still possible to vote. Some groups avert this by starting with a day phase, with the moderator presenting themselves as the werewolves' first victim.

More roles can be introduced. Some of those, like the Fortune Teller, use special abilities to help the villagers against the werewolves. Others, like the Cupid, are here to create additional conspiracies alongside or within the initial conspiracy. There are two expansion packs, ''New Moon'' and ''The Village'', adding new roles and game mechanics.\\

* IKnowYouKnowIKnow

During the first turn, each player receives a single card from the [[GameMaster GM]] and must keep it a secret from the other players. This is followed by a vote among the players to choose a captain, whose function is represented by a second (non-hidden) card. The game then alternates between “night” turns and “day” turns. During the night, all players with a “villager” card must keep their eyes shut and remain silent, as if they were asleep, while all players with a “werewolf” card must use visual gestures to communicate with each other and choose a victim among the villagers. During the day, all players (real villagers plus werewolves pretending to be villagers) must condemn somebody among themselves, with the captain’s vote counting twice. Every time a player is devoured during the night or executed during the day, his card is revealed to the other players and he must remain inactive for the rest of the game. If the captain is devoured or executed, he chooses his successor. The villagers win when all the werewolves have been executed. The werewolves win when all the villagers have been devoured or executed (the GM generally ends the game once the wolves have enough votes to block any attempt to execute them).\\
