Dive into the thrilling world of *Town of Salem*, where murder, accusations, deceit, and mob hysteria are all part of the game. Whether you're new to the game or a seasoned player, understanding the mechanics is key to mastering the art of deception and strategy.
How to Play
*Town of Salem* accommodates 7 to 15 players, each randomly assigned to different alignments such as Town, Mafia, Serial Killers, Arsonists, and Neutrals. If you're on the side of the Town (the good guys), your mission is to identify and eliminate the Mafia and other villains before they wipe you out. The twist? You won't know who among you is friend or foe.
On the flip side, if you're an evil role like a Serial Killer, you'll be lurking in the shadows, picking off Town members during the night while evading detection.
Roles
With 33 unique roles, *Town of Salem* guarantees a fresh experience every time you play. Before starting a game, players gather in a lobby where the host can customize the roles to be included. Once the game begins, roles are assigned randomly from the selected pool. Each player receives a role card detailing their abilities and alignment.

The night phase is where most roles exercise their powers. Serial Killers silently take lives, Doctors work to save those targeted for attack, and Sheriffs conduct investigations into potential wrongdoers.
Day
During the day, Town members have the chance to discuss and pinpoint who they believe might be an evil role. Once the voting phase begins, a majority vote can lead to a trial.
Defense
