    Clocktower is a game of lying, of deceiving your friends and fellow players. Sometimes you are good and solve the game. Other times you are evil and pull the wool over the eyes of everyone. Those moments are great! But what about the times you don’t? A play backfires. The meta gets too strong to…

The best of them have been collected into scripts with this one being a popular one that has been translated and is available to play. There are some amazing ideas here that come together nicely.

    In a recent All Amnesiacs game, I had 8 days to solve my ability, since we could guess after death. How close did I get? Not very. Can you do better than me? See for yourself and let me know how you go. Did you manage it? Don’t feel bad if you didn’t, because I…

    A very Story Teller intensive game to run, as they both need to come up with the abilities for all players, since all players are Amnesiacs and they need to be somewhat balanced, but also to actually keep everything in mind when running the game. I think the key when making a script up is…

    I was the Undertaker in TB, a fabulous role that can help solve worlds. The key is surviving and executing. I claimed on day 1 to Jams the ‘Soldier’ and entered a role-swap, which meant part 1, surviving, was achieved. Next was executing. Luckily, with the Aussie TPI Stream crew, that’s rarely an issue. I…

    Next up with the bizarre is what you get when you take two different characters and mash them together. Double the information! Double the confirmation! Double the Chaos! This script can be a bit jank around the edges, Lortox can just win day 1 if none of them vote and it has the Lleech (Llil…

    Continuing with my goal for the year, perhaps I set the bar too low. 62 games this month which does include quite a few Teensies but also, happily, more games on stream. Some hilarious and classic moments, including some chaos such as Blood on the Crossover and a blind game. Just over 31% of the…

    Turns out, quite a lot, especially when playing Teeny Meanie Miney Mo. I pulled the Alchemist token so I was excited to see what ability I would get. I hoped for Poisoner but got Goblin, so I hatched a plan. Tell everyone and get executed day 1. The plan went very well, with 4 of…
