Social deduction games have been adapted to video games numerous times through mods or full games. Other social deduction games include The Resistance, Deception: Murder in Hong Kong and Spyfall. During gameplay, players can use logic and deductive reasoning to try to deduce one another's roles, while other players can bluff to keep players from suspecting them.Įxamples of social deduction games include Mafia, in which only the mafia know who is mafia and what the mafia players' roles are Bang!, in which only the sheriff's role is known to everyone and Secret Hitler, in which only the fascists know who the fascists are, except for the player who plays as Hitler.
Commonly, these games are played with teams, with one team being considered 'good' and another being 'bad'. A social deduction game is a game in which players attempt to uncover each other's hidden role or team allegiance.
