About the game

Blood on the Clocktower is a board game from Pandemonium Institute, designed by Steven Medway (2022). It plays 5–21 players in 30–120 minutes, for ages 15+. BoardGameGeek players rate it 8.3 out of 10 and call it medium-heavy (3.0 / 5 weight).

In the quiet village of Ravenswood Bluff, a demon walks amongst you…

Blood on the Clocktower is a bluffing game enjoyed by 5 to 20 players on opposing teams of Good and Evil and overseen by a Storyteller player who conducts the action and makes crucial decisions.

During a 'day' players socialize openly and privately, trading knowledge or spreading lies, culminating in a player's execution if a majority suspects them of being Evil.
During a 'night', players close their eyes and are woken one at a time by the Storyteller to gather information, spread mischief, or kill. Use all your powers of deduction and deception to survive this game of murder and mystery.

The Storyteller uses the game's intricate playing pieces to guide each game, leaving others free to play without a table or board. Players stay in the thick of the action to the very end even if their characters are killed, haunting Ravenswood Bluff as ghosts trying to win from beyond the grave.
