Farnborough Board Games Club

Blood on the Clocktower (Intermediate)

Tue, Sep 22 · 6:50 PM BST

New Inn, Hawley Rd Farnborough, Farnborough, GB

This is an evening of Social Deduction. If you prefer to sit at a table and play a game with a small group of people, please redirect your attention to the weekly Thursday Evening Board Games event.

Intermediate

Intermediate sessions will NOT be playing the Trouble Brewing script.

You should join these sessions if you're comfortable with Trouble Brewing and are looking to explore other scripts and characters from Blood on the Clocktower.

You should expect a mix of Sects & Violets, Bad Moon Rising and some intermediate level custom scripts.

Four Rules

There are only four things you need to remember:

1. You may say whatever you want at any time. This is a talking game. You can talk publicly with the group or have private conversations, it is up to you.
2. No peeking. Please keep your character token a secret, and never look into the Grimoire, as it contains all the game characters. If you see something you shouldn’t, it will spoil the fun.
3. Ask the Storyteller any questions you need to. If you get confused, or don’t understand how your character works, or don’t understand how the character that you are pretending to be works, or if something happens at night that you don’t understand, or you just need some strategy advice... whatever it is, please ask. I’m neutral, and my job is to help you understand the rules and have fun playing. Let me know when you have a question, and we can talk in private so that nobody knows what question you asked.
4. Play nice. This is a game about deception and trickery, so please treat others with respect and consideration. Kill with grace, and die with dignity.

What To Expect

• the first game will start promptly at 7pm
• you are expected to know how to play the game already

A game usually takes 60-90 minutes, so we aim to play two games in one evening.

More About The Game

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

During a 'day' phase players socialize openly and whisper privately to trade knowledge or spread lies, culminating in a player's execution if a majority suspects them of being Evil.

Of a 'night' time, 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.

The tension and excitement builds for everyone as the bodies of victims pile ever higher...

Please take time to read the event description before attending this session.
