Okay so I have no idea if this has been a game theme before, but I'm going to post a setup, so you guys can

a) Tell me if it's been done before, and

b) Check the balance

Thanks and stuff, I'll probably start it up once it's deemed balanced






CAUTION: SPOILERS

EDIT: See this post for the role list

Seems like a sound setup, except that both Mafia roles seems like Hookers. I'd play this when it comes around, though.

Well, one prevents their target taking action, the other prevents actions from affecting their target, but the person in the box can still use any action they have.

Ah, I see. Misread that apparently. Seems good to me then.

Looks pretty solid. I'd love to play it.

But considering the powers some of the characters in this show have, it might be possible to come up with something fairly innovative. Maybe I'll have a go some time in the future.

See I wanted to do something like that, but then I also didn't want to end up making things that were totally useless / massively broken :U It's definitely something that'd be worth trying though.

Keeping things simple is good.
But you can throw out some good ideas based on the anime itself.

Waluigi Night for best character ever.


Not even open for debate.


Also I'll have another look at the roles tomorrow after I've had some sleep and see if I can come up with anything. It's not like this has to be running by a certain time after all

I'm surprised, for one, that Waluigi Walpurgis Night isn't a mafia member.

The only power I could think of for Walpurgis Night that makes sense with what we saw is only killable via lynch, and on a mafia member that seems a bit powerful. Which isn't necessarily bad, depending on the rest of the balance, but...

This was pretty much my reasoning behind not including it, I couldn't think of any role that I could make fit. Only killable by lynch isn't something I had thought of, perhaps can survive an attempted kill at night, and a lynch? Something like a maf sided bulletproof, but can also survive one attempted lynch.




Regarding making up roles for each character, I haven't been able to think of anything ;m; So if everyone's okay with just running with the roles in the OP, then I'll open this.

Well, I mean, the whole point of it as a plot object was one magical girl can't beat it alone. So that's why I'd been thinking only killable via lynch. That's not to say it couldn't be impaired in other ways, it just won't die unless you've got a whole mess of magical girls going after it. But obviously you'd have to make sure the village had measures to work around that. Or I mean they'd probably just realise after they tried to vig it in which case it has about the same impact as maf sided bulletproof. But still.

If you want I could try to brainstorm new role ideas for the characters you have here later? I don't know if you actually want to do that or not though.

That sounds awesome and I'd really appreciate it, because I can't think of anything at the minute :U

Waluigi Night - Use both of those things
Homura - Nyon had a similar thing in the Majora's Mask game, it was really well balanced, I say it's fine if it's just the one day/night cycle. e.g. If used night 2 it reverses Day 1 and Night 1. Could give mafia a role back so it's balanced in that regard.
Mami - I like the truth serum, it's fun
Madoka - Protection from witches seems good

Awesome, I'll wait and see if anybody else has anything to say, and then open it if we're okay with everything

[02:49:57] Ilvocare: congratulations the mafia role setup has managed to surpass the complexity of the anime it's actually based on

For prosperity

Okay

I present to you, the updated roles.

Village - Magical girls


Mafia - Witches


Third Party



Wheeeeeeee

Alright, any questions / balancing issues / discussion, go for it. If not, I'll open the game!

Might need nilla mafia depending on numbers, which I didn't run yet, as a note.

Mami sees Walpurgisnacht as guilty, and Kyubey as innocent
Also this should probably be listed under each of the third parties as well.
