About Town of Salem

✦ AI summary

Hunt down killers and liars in this 7-15 player social deduction game where you're randomly assigned secret roles as townspeople, mafia, serial killers, or neutrals, then debate and vote to lynch suspects while evil players secretly murder at night. With 33 unique roles, multiple game phases featuring discussion and defense, and deep customization options, each match plays completely differently.

Purchase comes with the exclusive SteamBot3000 Character Skin with unique death animation, 2,000 Town Points ($8 Value) and you will earn double Merit Points forever!

Town of Salem is a fresh innovation on the classic party games Mafia and Werewolf. It is a game of murder, accusations, deceit and mob hysteria.

How To Play

The game ranges from 7 to 15 players. These players are randomly divided into alignments - Town, Mafia, Serial Killers, Arsonists and Neutrals. If you are a Town member (the good guys) you must track down the Mafia and other villains before they kill you. The catch? You don't know who is a Town member and who is a villain.

If you are an evil role, such as a Serial Killer, you secretly murder town members in the veil of night and try to avoid getting caught.

Roles

Town of Salem has 33 unique roles ensuring a different experience each time you play.

Before a game starts, players are put into a lobby where the host can select what roles will be in the game. Players are then assigned roles at random from the list of chosen roles. Players have an in-game role card that explains their role's abilities and alignments. For an in-depth look at the abilities of each role please visit: www.blankmediagames.com/roles

Game Phases

Night

The night phase is when most roles use their abilities. For example, Serial Killers stealthily murder people, Doctors heal people who are attacked, and Sheriffs interrogate people for suspicious activity.

Day

The day phase allows the Town members to discuss who they suspect of being an evil role. Once the voting phase starts a majority vote from the town will put someone on trial.

Defense

The defense phase is when you plead your innocence to the town. Have a convincing story or find yourself facing the gallows!

Judgement

During this phase the town will vote on the fate of the defendant. Players can vote guilty, innocent or abstain. If there are more guilty votes than innocent votes the defendant is sentenced to death by hanging!

Customization

Players are able to choose their own map (town setting), character, pet, lobby icon, death animation, house and a custom name. The other players in the game will see your selections. There are currently 10 maps, 29 characters, 20 pets, 5 death animations and 20 houses to choose from.

Achievements

There are currently over 220 unique achievements in the game. Earning achievements will grant various in-game items (however the items for donation rewards are exclusive to Kickstarter).

Not recommended Jul 12, 2026
I played this game for years back on the site and actually have one of the OG free accounts. But, as other reviews here state the game is trash now due to the community. It's non-stop insanely racist ♥♥♥♥ 24/7. Slurs, people trolling and anyone that has a killing role even town will just slaughter randomly. There's no game anymore, it's just 99% racist trolls and 1% people who don't know what's going on.

It was a lot of fun! The community that plays this game can be upsetting, though. A lot of slurs and mean language.

I have over 10 hours in this game and I still can't tell the difference between the evil roles and stupid town members.
