Retro mafia: Interest thread

    This is the game I mentioned in the other thread.

    Now, obviously I can't even begin to plan this until I know who's playing, so I'm starting the interest thread early. As such we can use this thread to knock around some ideas for it as well.

    There is, in theory, no limit to the number of players, but if you've only played a couple of games and/or have never been mafia then clearly you'd be in an unfair position if you were in this one. So I'm expecting a relatively small game.

    -

    Things I've decided so far:

    I'll be using 12 games, all the themed games that haven't been abandoned. These are Mortal Kombat; Game of Thrones; Star Wars 1 & 2; Escath Plays; Doctor Who; LOTR Mini-mafia 1&2; X-Men; Harry Potter; Jurassic Park and Battlestar Galactica.

    Everyone will be a character they've had in one of these games. The sheer number of possible characters removes the "process of elimation" method for town, so I'm kind of putting info back in by restricting the characters each player can be.

    Abilities/win conditions will have to be adjusted to avoid ruling out characters that related to finding/killing other specific characters, such as Jabba from SW mafia 1. I'll try to keep it as close as I can, though.

    Nawww but Jabba was gun. Will you be taking requests btw?
     
  5. Howe JHF Howe

    Yeah sure.

    My point is that Jabba's ability/win condition (to do with searching for and recruiting Leia) would have to be adjusted because Leia may not be in the game, but I still want people to think Jabba could be.

    Tbf if Jabba was in the game you couldn't use my version of Jabba at all. It would be so obvious if he was in the game becuase of the selling of shit so if you gave him to me he'd have to be completely different.

    Oh maaaaan. I don't think I've ever been mafia in forum mafia. :down:

    Played quite a few too. :frown:

    I reckon most people have been town in these games as people have a higher probability of landing a town role in general.

    Except Mousey of course who is always the bad guy.
