Your First Harvest
The goal, the two sides, how to win.
Midnight Harvest is a game of hidden roles around a village bonfire. Between 6 and 12 players take a stool. A few of them are Werewolves, and they know each other. Everyone else is the Village, and nobody knows who is who.
By night the Werewolves strike in secret while a few villagers use their gifts. By day the whole village talks it over and casts ash to exile one suspect. The match runs from midnight to sunrise.
- The Village wins
- Every Werewolf is found, or the fire is still burning at sunrise (5:00 AM).
- The Werewolves win
- The Werewolves equal the Village in number, or the fire dies before sunrise.
Your role is dealt face-down when the match starts. Read it, keep it secret, and gather at the fire. A player's role is never shown when they die, only when the match is over.
