Tips werewolves

Advice to the Players

Werewolves:

• Voting against your partner is an effective way to deflect suspicion from yourself. Of course, this only works if the townsfolk notice.
• If someone suspect you being a werewolf, you can pretend to help the villagers to eliminate werewolves. This way less people will suspect you.
• You can pretend to be extraordinary villagers to find the real ones.
• Remember when there is cupido, there may be renegades among you, so watch out for those who ask for your partners to be eliminated!

Ordinary Villagers:

• This character can be decisive although they have no special powers.
• Do not campaign to be sheriff.
• The fortune teller theory: If the fortune teller dies on the first night, the person to his right is usually a werewolf.
• The pyromanic theory: If the pyromanic burns and fails to burn the werewolf, the person to the right of the burner is usually a werewolf.

The Fortune Teller:

• Always campaign yourself to be sheriff. Not only it avoids werewolves to be sheriff, but also you can use the sheriff passing to tell the results of the last checking.
• Be extremely careful if you have discovered a Werewolf. It may be worth the pain of revealing yourself in order to identify the player, but avoid doing this too early.
• If there is a barkeep, check him on the first night.

The Witch:

• This character becomes more powerful at the end of the game – do not waste your potions!
• You should use the healing potion on the first night to prevent important characters from dying.
• After you heal someone you should reveal yourself and the saved villager. You can also poison a werewolf to prove yourself to be the witch.

The Hunter:

• When you are accused of being a werewolf, it is always wise to try to pass yourself off as the hunter.
• When you really need to shoot someone and you are not sure who is the fortune teller, you should not shoot any people who is claimed by fortune tellers.
• You should not shoot any people who claim to be extraordinary villagers unless you are sure they are not real ones.
• If there are a lot of people who claim to be ordinary villagers, you can shoot one of them, as werewolves usually claim to be ordinary villagers.

The Little Girl:

• A very powerful character, but very nerve-wrecking to play. Don’t hesitate to spy. It may be frightening, but it is necessary to profit quickly before being eliminated.

Cupido:

• If you pick yourself as one of the lovers, do not choose a loud-mouth as your partner.

The Thief:

• If you choose to be villager, reveal yourself and tell them what cards you saw.
• If you choose to be werewolf, you can pretend to be the villager you left.

The Sheriff/Captain:

• Do not hesitate to nominate yourself for the position of Sheriff if you are a extraordinary villager.
• If you are a werewolf or ordinary villager, do not campaign too openly for the job.
• Be proud of this position, and wear the card proudly on your clothing.

The White Werewolf:

• You can pretend to be the witch and say you will try to poison a werewolf. Then you eliminate one. If the witch also used the poison, you can say you accidentally poison the wrong one.
• If you are a barber, you can use this chance to eliminate a werewolf.

The Pyromaniac:

• If you want to burn on the first night, choose the baker, barber or bailiff. Do not choose the barkeep.
• If you want to burn later on, you can burn the house with the fortune teller or the little girl.
• If you are sure that the barkeep is a werewolf, do not burn his house unless there is no other way to eliminate them.

The Raven:

• If you think you may die on that night, post the poster to tell who do you think is the werewolf.
• Don't post on the first day as you may end up killing an extraordinary villager.
