Welcome to Labspace
A game of mystery, intrigue and deceit.
Trust no-one.
Rules
How the game works
The game is played by a minimum of 6 players and a maximum of 30 players.
Once the game starts the bot will start assigning roles.
6-7 players | 1 Mad Scientist |
8-12 players | 2 Mad Scientists |
13-17 players | 3 Mad Scientists |
18-22 players | 4 Mad Scientists |
23-27 players | 5 Mad Scientists |
28-30 players | 6 Mad Scientists |
6-11 players | 1 Investigator |
12-17 players | 2 Investigators |
18-23 players | 3 Investigators |
24-29 players | 4 Investigators |
30 players | 5 Investigators |
10 and more players | 1 Village Idiot |
The rest of the players are always citizens (who may or may not receive any traits).
Workflow is as follows:
#1 A scientist will get to kill 1 person who is in the game.
#2 The Investigator (if still alive) will get to investigate 1 person from the game in an attempt to discover who the scientist is.
#3 Everyone in the game can vote who they think is the scientist
#4 Back to step 1.
The scientist's goal in the game is to kill all the citizens until there is an equal amount of citizens as there are scientists.
In each round one of the scientists can attack another player. There is a 15% chance that an attack fails.
The investigator's goal is to uncover who the Mad Scientists are.
There is a 15% chance that the investigator reveals himself as well as the player they were investigating.
Investigation results are relayed to all alive investigators as well as the investigation target unless they are a scientist.
The Village Idiot wins by being lynched in the public vote during the day. The game immediately ends when the idiot is lynched, so be careful who you choose if there’s an idiot in play!
The citizens have no role other than to vote who they think are Mad Scientists.
Portal Device
The Portal Device is used to evade lynching which may save someone for another round.
The chance of evading a lynching is 50%. The Portal Device sometimes gets left behind but there is a 50% chance that you get to keep it.
Force Field Generator
The Force Field Generator is randomly found by a citizen at the start of the game.
The person who is carrying the generator may choose who to protect. The default is that you are protected yourself. You can change who you are protecting at any time. You must change who you are protecting before the start of round 2, or the generator will blow up, killing you.
Please note, the generator only protects once and only from scientist attacks, not from lynching.
Alien Parasite
Sometimes citizens are infected by a parasite.
If a scientist attacks this citizen the parasite will kill both the infected citizen as well as the scientist. The parasite will be removed if there aren’t enough players left.
