Wolfsbane is a multiplayer game of social cooperation and deception. Woodpine Village is a mysterious, remote hamlet plagued by a werewolf's curse. It strikes once every ten years, turning one of the Woodpine villagers into a ravenous beast. It's up to the rest of the village to prepare a ritual to lift the werewolf's curse on the night of the blood moonā¦ Or just track down and hang the beast while it's still in human form. Donāt accidentally burn one of the innocents at the stake though!
- As villagers, players are assigned specific roles and perks to complete the tasks necessary to prepare the ritual and hopefully outwit the werewolf among them.
- Work during the daylight hours and fend off the werewolf's sabotage attempts as residents prepare for the eerie full moon nights.
- Here, the werewolf can shift between their human and wolf forms at will, attempting to sabotage the ritual and wipe out the rest of the town.
- As a werewolf, the player's goal is to prevent the ritualās completion by using sabotage, misdirection, and subterfuge.
- Stuck in their human form during the day, a werewolf can sabotage the preparations, but risks being revealed and marched to the gallows.
- Transform into a werewolf during the full moon nights to stalk and devour their fellow villagers under the cover of darkness.
- Once the blood moon rises, the werewolf becomes permanently transformed and the real bloodshed begins - but they can only be in so many places at once.
- Work together as a team to prepare the purge of Woodpine Villageās blood moon curse.
- Deduce the identity of the werewolf and remove the threat from the village.
- Be mindful to not wind up putting an innocent villager in the hangman's noose and play right into the werewolf's plans...
