Fullstack Academy capstone

The game proceeds in alternating night and day rounds, beginning with night. At the beginning of the night, only the werewolves can see. Everyone else is sleeping, so their video is stopped. While everyone sleeps, the werewolves choose a villager to kill. When they have made their kill, they too sleep.

After the werewolves have made their kill, the village doctor awakens and, not knowing who has been killed, chooses a villager (who can be themselves) to heal. The villager chosen will survive the night if the werewolves chose to kill them. Once the doctor has made their choice, they go back to sleep.

Next, the village seer awakens. The seer can choose one villager to have their true identity revealed. If the villager chosen is a werewolf, the seer will be told so. Otherwise, the seer returns to sleep.

Once the seer has finished, we transition to daytime, and the villagers find out who has been killed during the night. That villager is immediately dead and out of the game. They do not reveal their identity.

Daytime is very simple. All the living villagers gather and decide whom to kill in hopes of ridding themselves of werewolves. As soon as a majority votes for a single villager, that villager is immediately dead and out of the game.

There are no restrictions on speech. Any living villager can say anything they want: truth, misdirection, nonsense, or a bare-faced lie. Dead villagers may not speak at all. If a villager senses the others are beginning to turn on them and they want to protest their innocence or reveal some information, such as the seer’s visions, they must do it before the votes go through.

Once a player is killed, night falls, and the cycle repeats. The villagers win if they kill all of the werewolves. The werewolves win if they kill enough villagers that the numbers are even.
