    Ahh ...are you suggesting that there is an 'actual' route through to the successful escape point? hadn't considered that ..was focused on the rooms as a combination puzzle.

    But... if the route idea is correct....that means we CANNOT save a potential escapee ...until we reach the ...final destination ...ie the last day of the game?

    Im happy to go the easy way i just cant see why people are forcing moves east or north.

    Sadly ive no doubt were being led to certain death in my honest opinion but im sticking with south in the hope others agree

    I believe by choosing the correct route we can escape and since day one i believe theres groups leading us the wrong way trying to stop us winning

    How does the route theory work? Since we can't go backwards then it's not possible there is a single route.

    I don't think there is a route, there are just 3 options each time, but they are not all equally good/bad.

    Win conditions are:
    • The "Mafia" win when they are majority team left in game and no escape is possible or it is inevitable this will occur
    • The "Town" wins when all bad guys are wiped out and if they escape or it is inevitable both will occur.
    • Other roles may win the game also. Their win conditions are hidden.
    Need to remember that we have yo get the bad guys as well to win.

    Just finding the route is not enough.

  6. We are being given three options. Each option must offer up a different scenario. Maybe they also offer up different rewards for different teams? Maybe a team only gets an award if they choose a set option?


    The baseball bat suggests it was a mafia kill. However, with numbers being used it makes it sound like a prison (plus I've seen a few link this game to The Prisoners). What type of weapon would a hitman or vigilante use if they were prisoners?

    If you travel far enough in all directions you can poss escape, however theres bound to be one easier option each time.

    Seriously why everyday is there someone forcing a move in a rudiculous direction?

    Over and out

    I am trying to tie the good/bad choice into whether a lynch-ee escapes or dies...keep coming back to Mito stating we have to work collectively..ie get the right 'combination' of rooms ...but, tbf, I cant get much beyond that and propose a viable method of testing that theory

    My guess is a hitman would use a shoelace #missingshoe

  13. I would say we keep choosing directions until either the mafia outnumber the town or there are no mafia (or lone ranger) left. I don't think choosing routes will see an eventual escape. The OP tells us what the win conditions are, they are based on numbers like all other mafia games.


    Edit: I see this as been said already now I've read a little further.

    I don't understand the "combination" part. What does that mean? We can't change our previous result, we can only go forward from our current location.

    I just searched them and "route" does not appear. What are you referring to?

    Aside from getting side tracked about the route choice.

    What's the thoughts and logic about tonights vote?

  20. Listen to your own advice <ok>


    Win conditions are:
    • The "Mafia" win when they are majority team left in game and no escape is possible or it is inevitable this will occur
    • The "Town" wins when all bad guys are wiped out and if they escape or it is inevitable both will occur.
    • Other roles may win the game also. Their win conditions are hidden.

    First bullet says mafia win when they outnumber everyone else making escape impossible.

    Second bullet point says town only escape if all bad guys are wiped out.
