Our detectives so far have liked "were you near the murder?" "were you near people?" "did you see the murder?" "were you standing close to Liz (or another suspect)?" Last game the detective pointed to every spot in the room until they figured out were I had been standing. They thought for sure it was me...it wasn't.<br /><br />We have mixed reviews about GROG. The boys love it. The girls like it less.Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09013139973933821838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10428721.post-41300598806165043632012-01-22T07:02:01.905-05:002012-01-22T07:02:01.905-05:00It might be an "early Sunday Morning" th...It might be an "early Sunday Morning" thing, but I'm not sure I understand this game. What kind of questions does the detective ask? Can they only ask ONE person if they are the killer each round?<br /><br />It sounds like the game you WANT to play is GROG. I like Mafia too, but it's hard to play with teens because they still want the made-up stories and to give a cheezy "alibi", which most fail drastically at making interesting or funny. Grog has no talking, only killing.Natahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00296618453021990511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10428721.post-1695684877532281722012-01-22T06:49:51.323-05:002012-01-22T06:49:51.323-05:00I haven't played Mafia in years.

It is similar but a card game and there are multiple murders and no detective- everyone is the detective. Any 3 people make accusations (including the murders if they want) and then those accused (usually only 3 people) have to defend themselves and then a vote is taken. <br /><br />I love that game and it could've adapted here.Dustinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00529737530082282961noreply@blogger.com
