Ultimate Werewolf is a party board game designed by Ted Alspach and published by Bézier Games. It is based on the social game, Werewolf, which is Andrew Plotkin's reinvention of Dimitry Davidoff's 1987 party game, Mafia. The Werewolf game appeared in many forms before Bézier Games published Ultimate Werewolf in 2008.

Gameplay

Ultimate Werewolf can be played with 5 to 75 players of all ages. Each player has an agenda: as a villager, hunt down the werewolves; as a werewolf, convince the other villagers that you are innocent, while secretly attacking those same villagers each night. Dozens of special roles are available to help both the villagers and the werewolves achieve their goals. The game has more than forty unique roles, eighteen different scenarios, a set of 78 fully illustrated cards, a moderator score pad to keep track of games, and a comprehensive game guide.

Roles

The many roles of Ultimate Werewolf include:

Apprentice Seer: Become the Seer if the Seer is killed.
Aura Seer: At night, find the team of one player.
Beholder: Opens his eyes the first night to see who the seer is.
Bogeyman: If the wolves can't decide who to kill, you'll do it for them. You win if all the night-actives are dead.
Bodyguard: Choose a different player each night to protect. That player cannot be killed that night.
Cupid: Choose two players to be lovers. If one of those players dies, the other dies from a broken heart.
The Count: The first night, you are told how many werewolves there are in each half of the village.
