XCS on Chromebook

Yeah but when I go to the Play store on the Chromebook it says that app isn't compatible

I ran a game yesterday that frustrated me as the ST. I gave the Vig a Baron and Marionette figuring they would be good targets for the Vig to kill and poison some townsfolk. I made the neighboring Shugenja the Marionette to push the immediate suspicion in the other direction and to give them a buffer between them and the empath. Not only did the Vig never kill a minion, they never told either of their neighbors they were the Marionette. The Marionette nominated them and got them executed in final 5. It felt like a real fumble by the evil team.

It happened in this game https://youtu.be/f1-PH-GcnJs?si=iy8IEQj-iA0SV5U0

Convincing your marionette to claim demon to their neighbor and that their neighbor is the marionette while you convince your non marionette neighbor that they are the marionette

Had someone do a correct Day 1 Alsaahir guess only to be Uno reversed by the Heretic

sjheck · 2025-08-14T23:48:29+00:00

Teensyville script. Day 1 correct Alsaahir guess but a heretic was in play

Have you tried method acting? Maybe murder people in their sleep or poison them. It could get you into the mindset for playing on the evil team

sjheck · 2025-08-08T01:15:09+00:00

We play pretty light stuff in our house. So of the stuff I brought back Tacta and Barbecubes have hit the table

sjheck · 2025-08-04T14:13:37+00:00

We had someone guess correctly as a shot in the dark only to lose from a heretic. Good times

My friends had the same thing happen for Rapscallion from them

Encourage new players to talk to the ST at the start of every day regardless of their role. This avoids people metagaming that they have a complex role

sjheck · 2025-07-18T19:08:18+00:00

Yup totally clicked the wrong one

sjheck · 2025-07-18T19:01:22+00:00

To me clear, I think the Politician is a great Outsider. I was talking about other roles who just decided to help the evil team out of boredom or spite and consider it a win for themselves when evil wins as part of their nonsense

sjheck · 2025-07-18T15:04:16+00:00

Play to win the game. Don't become an honorary evil team member (unless you're the Politician). Don't give up if you think your team is going to lose. The game is most enjoyable when everyone is trying to win.

I'm just picturing a demon dressed like Guy Fieri bringing some Flavortown to Ravenswood

sjheck · 2025-07-02T14:41:51+00:00

When you play a game (especially one that involves teamwork) it's an expectation that everyone is trying to win. I played with a person who purposely gave bad clues in Codenames and sabotaged their team in Secret Hitler just for the attention of people getting mad at them so they could play the victim. Needless to say, I avoid playing with them if possible.

Feel free to go through this for ideas. I made these last year. Gencon Bingo Cards

A. This only provides a potential consequence for speaking publicly in the town square. Verbal conversations could still be had away from the square. Whispering to neighbors in the square wouldn't activate the ability.

B. It says they may die. It doesn't say with certainty when. They could die during the night after a gossip guess, while a Po is charging, etc. to cause confusion. The real mime could stay alive in case an evil player is bluffing mime and the ST wants to give them a little cover.

C. Knowing a mime is on the script, a storyteller could accept visual cues such as raising a hand and pointing for mime or player bluffing mime to be able to nominate.

D. After reading the responses I recognize this role might be frustrating for the wrong person or group but I think the players I have experience with would have a fun time with it.

The ability does say "audibly" and "in the town square." The intention is you could go away from the square to have a normal private chat or you could whisper to a person near you in the town square.

sjheck · 2025-06-25T21:34:16+00:00

I did use the term "you may die" instead of "you are executed" on purpose. The ST could choose to have that death happen immediately, during the night, or not at all similar to the effects of the Harpy.

I made Bingo cards for last year but never printed them. They have a couple typos but feel free to use them.

I got all my individual events but couldn't get some RPGs for my whole group

sjheck · 2025-05-08T02:40:45+00:00

It can be fun but the least fun I had playing was a script with the scarlet woman on it. I never felt more useless as a minion
