Introduction

Many people who play Mafia on PS! are introduced to the room either randomly or by a friend, and slowly with that exposure, the community grows. However, mafia isn’t a simple game where you can just join and expect to be good at the game while easily winning. Playing and understanding how mafia works takes a few games to become better at the game, and sometimes the same tactics don’t actually function well. On top of that, the introduction of many different themes may confuse new players as well who don’t know what everything means. Often at times, good players run into players that are new to the game or don’t know how to play well, causing further frustration for others. Aiming to help new players/newbies become better at the game and win more often, bluegummybear, and I (YashGreninja) have decided to make this guide to becoming a better mafia player. We will cover many topics as you proceed in the slide show.

WTF is happening?

  • Were going to set goals
  • Once we set our goals and decide on a Topic we will make our own “case study”(Just to begin)
  • Throughout our “case study” we will interactively assist each other with anything
  • Once we are done we will provide constructive criticism if what each and everyone case study is satisfying enough and what more can be done thoroughly
  • That is all until we brainstorm more ideas
