For example, the Witch in Werewolves of Miller's Hollow has only one use of her protective potion. She is allowed to see who was killed by the werewolves before applying the protective potion, so this character is more typical of the reanimation than the protective type. The Mafia Godfather may be able to recruit innocent players into their faction under certain circumstances. The Yakuza is a regular mafia player with an extra power: they may sacrifice themselves from the second night (during the night) and choose an innocent to join the mafia. [Note 17] Each night, the scientist selects a player to cure; if a mafioso is cured, they awaken as an innocent. [38] The Psychiatrist is an innocent with the ability to convert the Serial Killer into a normal innocent. [39] Cult Leaders recruit followers at night instead of kill; they act as an independent faction, usually with the ability to talk at night. The Piper wins by charming every surviving player; she charms players at night, who then know each other (but not the piper) but are otherwise unaffected.

Some researchers used Mafia for Artificial Intelligence Research (Tanaka, 2014; Demyanov, 2015; Kobayashi, 2014; Raiman, 2011) and machine learning (Katagami, 2014), while some worked with it for mathematical modeling research understanding multiplayer games and balancing (Xiong, 2017; Migdał, 2010; Braverman, 2008). Some were interested in the psychological complexity it involves (Chittaranjan, 2010; Zhou, 2008; Xia, 2007). Some considered the game as an opportunity to explore the incomplete information games’ field (Harsanyi, 1994). In addition to that, the Mafia game was applied as a test for some video conferencing setups (Batcheller, 2007) and for studying conversational dynamics in general (Oertel, 2013).

Derivation is by recursion on decreasing numbers of players in the following round, see: Yao, E. (2008). "A Theoretical Study of Mafia Games". p.7. arXiv: 0804.0071 [ math.PR]. Relax. (n.d.).

"I thought the rules were brilliant, but the theme felt arbitrary. Mafia aren't that big a cultural reference. I wanted to find a theme that fit hidden enemies who look normal during the day, but are murderous at night. Werewolves were the obvious choice."

In this variant, players are given two cards: the first contains their role, the second an attribute. Attributes were originally derived from roles that could apply to both Mafia and Innocent alignments such as Bulletproof (cannot be killed at night), Mayor (has two votes in the elimination), and Siamese Twins (more commonly known as Siblings or Lovers). [58] Quantum Werewolf [ edit ] Aside from Mafia, Werewolves, and Serial Killers (solitary guilty parties), the Innocents may have some roles with the ability to kill at night. The Vigilante is an innocent who kills every night, in their own night-time phase sometimes. [Note 13] In some variations, the Vigilante has limited ammunition. Some variations introduce a time limit of two nights before the player in the Killing Role can kill again. Other variations add the trait that if the Vigilante kills an innocent they either lose the ability to kill or die from guilt the next night. The Veteran has a finite-use ability (usually 3); if activated, anyone who targets them (friend or foe) will be killed. The Bomb may only trigger if targeted at night (not necessarily for death) by another role. Variants exist where this person can kill during the daytime cycle (e.g., the Terrorist / Gravedigger), sometimes only if executed during the daytime. The Woodcutter or Hunter can take one other person with them whenever they die. [Note 14] Alignment roles [ edit ]Davidoff explains it succinctly as "the uninformed majority versus the informed minority". The basic structure of day phases and night phases, killings and lynchings, is the same but with one main difference. Instead of the killers being given a window of opportunity to co-ordinate their killing -- at night, when their eyes are open and those of the innocent closed -- they need surreptitiously to agree a victim during the opening phase of discussion, when all players are engaged in debate. During the night phase, players then write down the name of a proposed victim.
