The verdict
A deep, class-rich medieval social deduction game that many call better than Town of Salem, but the playerbase is nearly dead and the community and moderation are criticized. Skip it unless you have a group of friends.
Great for
Social deduction fans with a big friend group who want more depth than Town of Salem
Main risk
Almost no players online, so you likely can't find a match without Discord scheduling
What players love
Helpful community and in-game guides
