Kazopolis: A New Way to Play Blood on the Clocktower #
“This makes Fish Bucket playable” - Play Tester #
Kazopolis is a custom project that has been in development for a few months at this point, and is a collaboration between me, my partner, and our local Clocktower group to answer a question nobody asked, “what if everyone just picked their role?”.
The end result is this, what was originally a fable but at this point could be described as a different format entirely with how you rethink your strategy.
The exact rule is “On night 1, each player may choose to become any character of the same type. Duplicates might be drunk. [? Outsiders]”.
This means that everyone can pick the role they think would be most fun to play as, but they must consider what everyone else might pick too. If everyone picks the same role, the town will have no way to figure out who is drunk and who is sober.
Evil players normally try to bluff out of play roles, but bluffing in play roles is now also extremely powerful. Since duplicates are possible, double claims imply that players might secretly be drunk, which can make the good team distrust otherwise helpful information.
