The peak board game experience to me is Blood on the Clocktower.


I just checked it out, what's the difference between it and non-board-games like werewolf and mafia?


The same social deduction genre, but the possible game states and the permutations of possible interactions are so massive that it stays interesting even when playing with the same group for years. It rewards both good calculation and good social reading skills, along with good bluffing of course.


Interesting. Could you give some examples as to how? I want to see how well this could work out in my friend circle, who seem to be getting bored after years of mafia-ing.



It's very similar; they're all "social deduction" games.
