About this Mod
[ ALPHA VERSION ONLY ]
This mod is currently in development and the first truly playable version is not available yet ! (coming soon). You can test it and play it, but not all the features are available yet. Please let me know if you find any bugs.
EMB's Werewolves is a Minecraft mod that lets you play the famous French social deduction game “Loups Garous de Thiercelieux” (Werewolves of Thiercelieux) directly in Minecraft!
ORIGINAL GAME RULES
The concept is simple: every night, the werewolves secretly kill villagers, and every day, the villagers try to identify and vote out the werewolves.
The Werewolves win by eliminating all villagers.
The Villagers win by eliminating all werewolves.
At the beginning of the game, players receive secret role cards that remain anonymous throughout the match.
The Seer
The Seer wakes up every night before the werewolves and can discover the role of one player of their choice.
The Witch
The Witch wakes up after the werewolves and has access to two unique potions:
A Life Potion, which can save the werewolves’ victim.
A Death Potion, which can kill another player.
Each potion can only be used once per game, and the Witch may also choose to do nothing.
The Werewolves
The Werewolves wake up every night and choose a player to eliminate.
The Hunter
When the Hunter dies, he may immediately eliminate one player of his choice.
Cupid
Cupid wakes up only on the first night and chooses two players to become lovers. If one of them dies, the other dies as well.
The Thief
The Thief wakes up only on the first night and steals the role of a player of their choice. The targeted player then becomes a Villager.
Villagers
Villagers have no special abilities.
And there are many more roles in the original game — too many to list here!
IN MINECRAFT
For now, only 4 playable roles are available:
Werewolves
Seer
Witch
Villagers
To start a game, one player must use the “Game Starter” item. A menu will open, allowing them to select the total number of players participating in the match.
All players are placed in small houses surrounding a campfire. Inside each house, there must be an essential block called the Sleeper.
Once the game begins and players receive their role cards (you must eat the card to obtain your role), everyone must interact with the Sleeper. The game waits until all players are asleep before starting the night phase.
During the night, roles automatically wake up in the correct order:
The Seer is called first. She wake up and receive an Eye item in her inventory, allowing her to reveal the role of a player by hitting him with it.
Once finished, she return to sleep using her Sleeper, and the next role is called.
Each role follows a similar system, with its own unique mechanics and gameplay.
(While asleep, players cannot see or move.)
CURRENT DEVELOPMENT STATUS
The daytime voting system and the victory/defeat system are not implemented yet, but they are coming soon! More roles are coming soon too !
Currently, to end/reset the game, you have to click on "reset" in the Game Starter, or type the commande /lgreset. Soon, you won't need this anymore, since the game will end automatically once one team wins (werewolves or villagers). Moreover the mod is in french only, but an English translation is planned !
If you want to do suggestions for the mod or help the project, join the Discord ! (the link is coming very soon)
