[@Teamexercises]

You're in luck! I just released my new book: 101 Team Building Exercises. Get it now at: geni.us/teamexercises A must have for everyone working with groups.

[@vanessasingerpianist]

Just bought this. Looking forward to trying some! Thanks for publishing it and foer your videos.

[@Teamexercises]

@@vanessasingerpianist Cool! Great to read you bought it :) Have fun with all the exercises!

[@Sweetheart-ov7tv]

This exercise my team enjoyed a lot

[@Teamexercises]

That’s great to read! 😃

[@Oneminutewin]

I like this game and I want to do it in my class, but I'm not sure, how do the werewolves communicate to the trainer who they picked?

[@Teamexercises]

Reem El Attar Great you are going to do this exercise with your class! :) When the werewolves pick a citizen they point together to that person so the trainer sees who it is. Let me know what your students thought of the game! :)

[@alexwong4923]

My class has been playing this game but no one understands how to play :')

[@bcloud459]

Is there a preferred ratio of the werewolf and villagers? Like if it is a group of 20, how many werewolves would be good?

[@Teamexercises]

Hazel Yao hi, thank you for your question. When you have a bigger group I recommend to have 1 wolf per 6 villagers. So in your case 3 wolfs will be good :) Good luck and have fun!

[@lovereading8316]

Theres 24 cards so u can decide how many

[@rockie4200]

This is really close to the game town of Salem, except the werewolves are mafia (which really if you think about it werewolf’s are just mafia. They can be interchangeable) and there are other roles. I know a lot of games have the seer and witch In it. There are lots of other roles which games implement into it to make it more interesting to town instead of relying on body language and suspicion. They can rely on hard facts. Of course, you would have to believe them.

[@Teamexercises]

Hi Rockie, thank you for your comment. Yes, there are multiple variations you can play. I found a lot of them on the internet :)

[@soulbrother1143]

Can the body gaurd protect a werewolf, seeing as how the bodyguard does not know who the werewolf is....and if the werewolf is protected by the body gaurd then what happens.

[@Teamexercises]

I never played it with a body guard myself to be honest, but it sounds like a great addition to the game :)

[@kataisuratso8238]

If the body guard can guess the right victim, that victim will survive. Then the body guard will know that person is the villager, but if body guard saves the wrong person, the victim will die.

[@Edford12345]

What happens if one werewolf and one villager is left?

[@Teamexercises]

Then the werewolf wins because he can eat that villager in the night.

[@3v3ry1]

@@Teamexercises not if the remaining villager is a healer/doctor

[@Teamexercises]

@@3v3ry1 Correct. In that case the werewolves lose, because the doctor can expose the last remaining wolf.

[@kumarharsh2857]

Where I get the game

[@Teamexercises]

If you search for: ‘werewolves’ on amazon you can find it :)

[@sourmilk8667]

or u can draw all roles on slips of papers

[@annelin1702]

What is the optimal number of people to used this exercise?

[@Teamexercises]

I would say around 7 would be optimal, but less or more would also do fine :)

[@madouichaffai7254]

Please what is exactly the goal of this game ?

[@Teamexercises]

To have fun with each other and to read each others body language. It is good for team building :)

[@lyrimetacurl0]

I recognise the music from a Hitler Rants Parody video (Darkest Child by Kevin MacLeod)

[@Teamexercises]

Lyri Metacurl yes, you are right! I just searched ‘Darkest Child’ on KZbin and it is the music I use in this video. It’s no copyright youtube music which you can use for video background music :) I like it. It is mysterious :)

[@Shlnkazuml]

Its like mafia game

[@Teamexercises]

Yes, it looks like mafia game :)

[@sevilayimamoglu1390]

This is a online game?

[@Teamexercises]

Hi Oyun, this video is designed to do in real life, but I think there are also online version. Try Googling 'werewolves online' and I think you will find it. Good luck! :)

[@sevilayimamoglu1390]

@@Teamexercises thx you are so helpfull :))

[@Teamexercises]

@@sevilayimamoglu1390 You're welcome, that's great to hear :)

[@sevilayimamoglu1390]

@@Teamexercises l am turkish if you want turkish subtitles l make it :)

[@Teamexercises]

@@sevilayimamoglu1390 Yes, that would be great. You can click the gear in a video and then click "add subtitles". I think that should work :)

[@jonestanolan8458]

I love this game! But it's so easy to cheat! All someone has to do is keep their eyes open or sneak a peek. Anyone know of a way to make it less easy to cheat?

[@Teamexercises]

Jonesta Nolan Great to hear you love this game! You can put on blinfolds on the persons who close their eyes :)

[@Bull_10RR]

everyone lowers their heads down toward their crotch... thats how we play it, makes it very hard to cheat.. or if around a table, rest your head in your arms, like you did if you ever fell asleep in school..

[@lyrimetacurl0]

Werewolf Online can do it. Plus if the wws see you cheating they should eliminate you.. or the mod should look out and eliminate you for cheating...

[@anujkurmi9523]

I play this game everyday and there r 2 version of werewolf one is 7 player and other one is 9 player

[@Teamexercises]

Yes, interesting. There are multiple variations possible regarding the number of people :)

[@lorenaprieto9470]

Interesting

[@Teamexercises]

Leydy Lorena Prieto thanks!

[@kumarkartikeya5991]

Best game ❤️

[@Teamexercises]

Yes, it’s great :)

[@udialaura]

It's basically like mafia

[@Teamexercises]

Yes, it's almost the same :)

[@charl843]

This is now on telegram.

[@Teamexercises]

Charl Lozano Hi Charl, thank you for your comment! How do you mean on telegram? The app?

[@darkkiller3950]

This game is just like among us lol

[@Teamexercises]

Ah interesting. I don't know that game. Is it exactly the same? Or are there differences?

[@darkkiller3950]

@@Teamexercises no it like you can move around with your character there are 10 players 1 or 2 or 3 are the imposter and the rest are crewmate so now the imposter must kill the cremated when ever they want but if a cremated saw them kill he will report it if the other cremate believe him the imposter will be out of the game go look it on youtube it's a realy famous game now

[@Teamexercises]

@@darkkiller3950 Cool, thanks, I will check it out :)

[@eve_the_eevee_rh]

There are a couple more roles you can use lol

[@Teamexercises]

Nuclearitism Elements Tell me! :) Which one do you like?

[@eve_the_eevee_rh]

Doctor: Select a Player each night. If that player is the victim of the Werewolves, the victim survives. Priest: Once per game, during the night, you can select a player. If that player is a Werewolf, they die. If that player is not a werewolf, you die. Other people will know who you chose when you die. Seer: Each night, you can select a player. You will then know his or her role. Witch: You have 2 potions; the poison can be used to kill a player and the antidote to prevent the Werewolves killing during that might. Cursed: If you are attacked by the Werewolves, you turn into a werewolf. If the Seer selects you the night you get converted, he/she will see you as Cursed. Fool: If you get voted off, you win. You do not win with the village, you are a _Solo_ role.

[@Teamexercises]

@@eve_the_eevee_rh Very nice! Thank you :)

[@jamesemersonferrer6302]

😍😍😍

[@MichaelHumpter]

That was the most stupid way to play that game, you obviously wouldn't pick Paul. Point of the game is that informed minority always wins, this tactic was stupid.

[@Teamexercises]

Thank you for your comment! Interesting, why do you think they wouldn't pick Paul? Thanks!
