What is Mafia?

Mafia is a social deduction party game that tests your ability to lie, detect lies, and work as a team.

Mafia game in action

Created in the 1980s by Dimitry Davidoff, this psychological game has become a worldwide phenomenon and has inspired many variations and adaptations.

Basic Rules

The game is played in alternating phases:

  • Night Phase: The Mafia secretly 'eliminate' one citizen. Special roles also perform their actions.
  • Day Phase: All players debate and vote to eliminate one player they suspect is Mafia.
  • Game End: The game continues until either all Mafia are eliminated (Town wins) or the Mafia outnumbers the Town (Mafia wins).

Tips for Playing

  • Pay attention to contradictions in other players' statements
  • Observe body language and unusual behavior
  • Trust your intuition, but gather evidence before making accusations
  • Stay calm when defending yourself
  • Remember that deception is part of the game - don't take it personally!
