Congrats everyone. Now playing Werewolf in the Dark (WitD)became a wee bit easier. How? Well let's dive in.
If you already looked at the Print-and-Play rules (available here), you would see that WitD is played in Day and Night phases, a lot like classic Werewolf.. Both of these phases require you to keep track of time.
The Day phase is always just 1 single minute. The Night phase lasts up to 8 minutes.
But now, instead of having to pull out any timer, you can use our official audio timer! We are going to create a 1 minute timer for the Day phase that will not only keep track of time for you, but will also help host the day phase. As a bonus, we will also create something similar for the Night phases, but here the timer will also include atmospheric sounds to help set the mood.
Imagine a professional audio host leading the Day phase: "Players, form a circle. Discuss your thoughts on who should be voted to be eliminated! You have one minute... starting now!" ... "Only 30 seconds remaining." ... "Time is up!" "Players, point to the sky. Choose which player you want to eliminate and point to them in 3... 2... 1... POINT! Whoever is being pointed at most is eliminated. If there is a tie, nobody is eliminated."
Our current plan is to release these audio tracks through our website at tuesdayknightgames.com where you download them at your convince. We will also be releasing these tracks on our YouTube channel so you may search for them there. We hope to get you these tracks before you get your copy of Werewolf in the Dark.
But now is the stretch goal I believe you want most. If we reach our next goal of $99,000, we will be able to afford to put 12 LED candles in EVERY box! These candles will conveniently fit under the vacuum tray, discussed in our last update.
Look at those beautiful melty LED candles! Yours if we reach $99,000.
So why would I care about candles? Well, candles are actually a HUGE part of the game! If you are eliminated you become a ghost during your next Day phase. The purpose of a ghost is to simply have fun and to cause fun.
When you become a ghost you:
DRAW 2 GHOST TOKENS from the table at Sanctuary. Each ghost token has its own unique ability.
CHOOSE 1 TO USE and return the other ghost token face down for any future ghosts to possible use.
PLACE YOUR GHOST TOKEN FACEUP on the table. This is a reference for others to see which ghosts are in play.
TAKE A CANDLE and turn it on. Spooky.
Thank you again for your support! Let us know your thoughts, your questions, and keep posting on the community page... and let's get to $99,000!
