Meetup: Cork Mafia - Mafia/Werewolf Meetup Group
Wed, Sep 9 · 6:00 PM
Where do I find you? The event space is in Goldberg's pub. If you are having issues, send me a DM on meetup- Kevin What is Mafia? Mafia is a ten-player social game (if more players arrive, we divide it into two or more tables!). You'll get a secret role and work with your team to win. Each game takes around 45 minutes, so we play multiple games in a row when we meet. The goal of the Mafia Team is to eliminate the rest of the players, the Citizens. The Citizens try to figure out who the Mafia members are and eliminate them. Don't worry if you're new, we always have plenty of new players who are warmly welcomed. We'll explain everything you need to know. Prior knowledge or experience is not required! How does the game work? Video Explaining the Rules: https://youtu.be/67N8Pt1MnDQ?si=rAkpoFdkGW4Tab90 The game has two phases: Night and Day. During the Day, everyone briefly discusses who they think the Mafia are, then vote to eliminate a suspect. During the Night, the Mafia can eliminate an innocent Citizen. There are also two special roles: the Don (Mafia) and the Sheriff (Citizen). At night, the Sheriff will wake up secretly and choose one player to learn if they are Citizen or Mafia. The Don will also wake up secretly during the night and choose one player to check if they are the Sheriff. Both these roles are vital in helping their respective teams win. The game continues until either the Mafia Team is eliminated or The Mafia outnumbers (or equals to) the Citizens. But you don't need to remember all of this; the best way to learn this game is to play it! Why Mafia? This game is played all over the world. People from over 50 countries and over 15,000 players take part regularly worldwide. Mafia is gaining popularity, with clubs and tournaments happening constantly. It's a fair game since each player can talk and contribute equally. Regardless of your role, you can help your team win. You can get better and improve your deduction skills with practice, just like in sports. There's even an international ranking system, like in chess or tennis. Mafia mixes logic, intuition, and emotional intelligence. Some people compare it to Poker, others to Werewolf, but it's really unique. You can read guides, try new strategies, and watch championships. A friendly global Mafia community is always ready to help new players. Whether you're a secret identity game fan or new to the idea, try Mafia with us! The best Mafia players have started without any prior experience in other games.
