Dive into the thrilling world of Town of Salem, a game where murder, accusations, deceit, and mob hysteria reign supreme. This engaging multiplayer experience pits 7 to 15 players against each other, each randomly assigned to different alignments including Town, Mafia, Serial Killers, Arsonists, and Neutrals.
How to Play
If you find yourself on the side of the Town (the good guys), your mission is to root out the Mafia and other villains before they can take you down. The challenge? You have no way of knowing who is truly on your side and who might be plotting against you. On the flip side, if you're an evil role like a Serial Killer, your job is to secretly eliminate Town members under the cover of night while evading detection.
Roles
Town of Salem boasts an impressive roster of 33 unique roles, ensuring that every game brings a fresh set of challenges and strategies. Before the game kicks off, players gather in a lobby where the host can curate the roles that will be in play. Once the game begins, each player is randomly assigned a role from the chosen list and provided with an in-game role card detailing their abilities and alignment.

Game Phases
Night
The night phase is when the game's mystery unfolds, as most roles exercise their special abilities. Serial Killers carry out their deadly deeds in stealth, Doctors work to save lives from attacks, and Sheriffs probe for signs of nefarious activity.
Day
Come daylight, Town members gather to deliberate on who they suspect of harboring evil intentions. As the voting phase commences, a majority decision from the Town sends a suspect to trial.
Defense
In the defense phase, the accused must convincingly argue their innocence to the Town or face the dire consequence of execution.
Judgement
The final judgement rests in the hands of the Town, who vote on the accused's fate—guilty, innocent, or abstain. A majority of guilty votes results in the defendant's execution by hanging.
Customization
Players can personalize their Town of Salem experience by selecting their preferred map, character, pet, lobby icon, death animation, house, and custom name, adding a unique flair to their presence in the game.
