Gathering of the Wicked

Players take on iconic villain roles gathered in a bleak, chaotic realm and try to advance their faction’s hidden agenda. The game alternates between night phases—when villains wake in turn to use role-specific abilities—and day phases—when the assembled group discusses, accuses, and votes to eliminate suspected traitors. Each character has a public identity with a unique power and a secret alignment that determines win conditions, so information is partial and bluffing and deduction drive play. Social deduction, targeted actions, and elimination shape the flow as teams vie for control of the gathering.
