6 Games Like Town of Salem

Games Like Town of Salem This assortment of games like Town of Salem features other unique single player and multiplayer games about deceiving other players, alliances and social deduction.

Town of Salem was released in late 2014 and is based on the long popular party games of Werewolf and Mafia that require players to outsmart each other through deceiving tactics. Set during the Salem Witch trials Town of Salem is designed for up to 15 players with each player given a random role which broadly falls into the three primary alignments of Town, Mafia and Neutral that each have their own goal to achieve.

Within these three alignments Town of Salem also offers 35 unique roles in the base game that have different abilities to assist them in achieving their objective. While the broader alignments have a shared goal to strive for some roles have compatible goals with each other for potential shared victories. With not every role appearing in each game, the unique interactions between certain roles and the human element Town of Salem offers a wealth of replay value. Gameplay is split into a series of phases which revolve around discussions with other players, voting, judgements and a night phase where the main action (attacks and skills) are mainly utilised.

The games like Town of Salem below have a similar focus on multiplayer or single player games about deception and clue gathering where you’ll have to either uncover the truth or hide the truth from other players depending on the role you draw.
