How close is this game to Mafia/Werwolf

Sat, 02/02/2019 - 00:28 — Fex_H

Hi all,
I'm currently working on a social deduction game with a few of my friends.

It is set in the old west, where all the characters are staying in a saloon when a prestigious rail baron is murdered in the establishment. No one has left the premises so the murderer and his accomplices must still be inside. If you support the Sheriff, will you be able to figure out who the culprit was and eliminate them? Or will the Murderer and his accomplices eliminate the Sheriff before word gets out, and you get uncovered.

The Game Crafter - Large Pro Box Discontinued

After a 7 year run, The Game Crafter has decided to discontinue the Large Pro Box. The Large Pro Box served us well in the early days when The Game Crafter did not have a lot of options for packaging, but its inability to be fully printed is no longer representative of our customer’s needs and desires, especially when there are great alternatives available.
