About this game

Mafia is a game people play around a table. The app just handles the parts a human host has to fake: dealing secret roles, remembering what happened in the night, timing the argument, and counting the votes without anyone peeking.

One person creates a game and reads out a six-letter code. Everyone else joins with that code, and their phone becomes their role card — the only place their secret ever appears. A spare tablet can open the shared board and sit in the middle of the table, showing the phase, the clock and who is still in.

WHAT IT DOES

• Deals secret roles privately, so nobody has to close their eyes and trust it
• Runs night, day, last word and the vote, with a clock everyone can see
• Counts votes and shows who voted for whom — the question a host actually gets
• Twenty-four roles, from a plain townsfolk game to detectives, doctors, a maniac, and a jester who wins by losing
• Seats for people without a phone: the host can act and vote on their behalf
• Ukrainian, Russian and English
• Phones and tablets, and the same rooms work in a browser at mafia.aimdev.site — app players and web players can share a table

ACCOUNTS AND THE GAME NIGHT PASS

No account is required to host or play — a room code is enough. Signing in with a free AimDev account is optional: it carries your free games and any Game Night pass across the app, the web console and other phones. Hosting is free for the first three games; after that, a Game Night pass unlocks 24 hours of unlimited hosting for a one-off NZ$5.49 (about US$2.99) — not a subscription. No advertising, no tracking. Rooms are deleted twelve hours after they are created.

What’s new

• Invite the players from the lobby: a QR code to scan straight off the host's screen, and a Send button for the group chat.
• New practice game: nine sample players with roles already dealt, so you can run a night on your own first.
• One free game every evening. For a second game the same night, a Game Night pass gives 24 hours of hosting, and the price shows from the first game.
