How to play
You're the town's most valuable investigator. Prioritize checking quiet or suspicious players early. Share your results carefully - claim too early and the Mafia will target you. Your reading is what a player looks like, not what they are: several evil roles read innocent, the Godfather and the Cult Leader among them; a Miller reads guilty although he is town; and a Framer can make anyone read guilty for a night. Check the top bar to see which of those are in this game.
