I was recommended Town of Salem by someone randomly on Facebook one day, I gave it ago and all this time later I'm still playing it.
Played via Steam or free through a normal browser window it's a remarkably addictive little game that I was oddly familiar with. You see a team building exercise in some offices is called simply Wolf and is essentially a live action simplistic version of this.
Entirely online you play one of a number of people in Salem, you're assigned a random secret role whether it be part of the town, mafia or miscellaneous evil such as a werewolf or serial killer.
For the town to win they must remove all the evil and for set evils to win they must essentially do the same. Trouble is nobody knows who is what and the majority of the game is done through chat. It's a fascinating social experiment almost, a game of logic and deduction and it's infinetly fun.
Each day everyone gets to vote if someone should be lynched, and every night the evils get to have their way. It's a tense intellectual game with infinite possibilities, no two games are ever the same.
With an ever updated shop providing you with cosmetic bonuses it's free to play but microtransactions (Which aren't pay to play) are present.
But no game is perfect and with an online game like this it can only be as good as its community. Trolls and game throwers are absolutely rife, you're guaranteed to have at least one in every game. It has to be considered an adult only game purely because of the language and behavior of its players.
If you can get past that Town of Salem is so very much fun and worth anyone's time.
