If you are already familiar with the game of Mafia, you can start playing now!

About

This site is powered by AutoMafia, a web-based version of Mafia (also known as Werewolf or Vampire). See the help page for more information on the game of Mafia and how to play it.

Features

The aim of AutoMafia is to perform the job of the moderator, while allowing for as much gameplay variety as possible:

• Over 30 different character types to choose from
• Complete freedom for players to create a virtually infinite variety of game setups (including closed and random setups)
• Potential for huge games with hundreds of players and numerous factions competing for victory (which would be very difficult for a human moderater to run)
• Game statistics with leaderboards for the most successful players and the most popular setups

Planned features for future versions:

• A narrator role, to allow a player to sit out from the game and provide a story, while AutoMafia carries out the other moderator tasks
• Optional email notifications to players on significant game events
• More characters (potential additions include; Mafia Janitor, Mafia Hitman, Bulletproof Villager, Bodyguard, and Jester)
• Player avatars
