    I don't know what I've been doing with my life. 250 hours poured into a game that I'm still horrible at, kill me now.

    A really fun and rather simple (yet very hard to master) social deduction game with a very toxic community (at times)

    There is so much art into tricking people into thinking you are a townsperson, but the real fun is getting neutral roles and winning.

    This game is one of my favorites as it not only tests your ability to persuade and deceive others, but the large cast of roles allows for many different ways to play the game. Each new game you hop into is a new and fun experience giving you plenty of variety.

    Fun game. I loved interacting and roleplaying with real players. However, there are many boring roles for me, and for the most part, you get those roles.

    This game has me feeling all types of ways - unfortunately, recent events have made my experience very unpleasant. This is due to the servers being down. Now, i use this game as a form of escapism where i can kill people and get away with it. However, now i will have to resort to other means and measures that others wouldn't necessarily deem san

    Its an amazing game, However. There is one huge problem

    The chances of Town winning over Mafia are like 70%. Especially on the normal gamemode, You really have to play Ranked. But on Ranked people are way smarter so it still doesn't make that of a difference. If you have a good jailor and a few good people on the Town's team your set I also hate it when people leave during the

    Town Of Salem is a fantastic strategy game with a complex but easy learning curve, there is so many roles abilities and objects to overcome just in one game which is amazing. The game has over 9-10 modes they are all unique in their own way, classic is simple and gives you what you need to get started, there is even ranked match’s and custom matches with full control over the roles.

There is also other chaotic but strategic modes, there is no leveling up system but you get achievements and coins for accomplishing goals or wining. Also the shop is field with satisfying rewards, skins maps houses and much more. The presentation is great and the soundtrack is surprisingly well made and fits very well, but I wish if the friend code system would last forever, I mean playing with friends is beyond fun seriously. Town Of Salem is an amazing game with its many roles and groups to its complex ways to claim the victory flag, and the satisfying customization system makes all the coins you collected worth the while, this game is especially fun with friends so I highly recommend it.

    Music is very jammable, a mamma mia of a piece, I haven't played the game yet because my friends aren't letting me get on but I'm just sitting here listening to the music. Very good game, would recommend to anyone with a taste of music.

    Town of Salem is nothing more than a glorified chat client to play a party game similar to "Mafia" or "Werewolf" and your enjoyment of the game really depends on the community.

    First of all, the game ISN'T balanced. It isn't supposed to be. Your not SUPPOSED to win as Werewolf or Witch or Executioner or something like that. It is supposed to fun to deceive the Town when you are that role. I will reference another review, Doutzen said that "Even if you are the smartest one, you're gonna lose as hell, when your companions are total idiots."

I will reference another review, Doutzen said that "Even if you are the smartest one, you're gonna lose as hell, when your companions are total idiots." I totally agree with this. However, if your Mayor or other important role is super bad at their role, I wouldn't leave the game before dying. If you died Night 1, sure! But if you died Night 5 then wait until the end of the game! There could be a great comeback! Even if there isn't, you can always talk with the other dead people who are still in the game. I hope this review pushed you to try out the game. It is completely free and AWESOME. There are many modes, such as All Any or Custom. If you are more serious, maybe try Ranked Practice or just Ranked. It's much more easier to win, as people are more at your skill level. Also, people are a lot more serious. Although there are many strategies, try at least five games yourself to see if you can find any. Expand

    Town of Salem was a very fun game. Unfortunately over the last year it has been ruined by the community. The game has become filled with gamethrowers.

    This game is completely unbalanced, the biggest problem is that there are no consequences for people who leave at the beginning of the game. There are people screaming nazi paroles and nothing happens with them. Gamethrower face no consequences and the game gets worse with every patch.

    Extremely awesome, a game that involves mandatory strategical thinking and reasoning in order to survive in this Town of Salem! The community can get quite competitive though, so be warned.
