Ten of the Best Social Deduction Games | Tabletop Gaming

Looking for social deduction games to root out the bluffer amongst you? Look no further, with our list of ten of the best Social Deduction games.

There are a few audio issues which we apologise for, and are blaming the lockdown for (as hairdressers are closed), rather than Charlie mis-positioning her mic... (Oops!).

Which games would you add to our list? Which are your favourites? And importantly... was it YOU?

Stumbled across this via my TV app so went straight to your channel. Great presentation skills and enthusiasm. And great choices for this vid too! :)

Lifeboat is my all time favourite at the moment, it’s got a lot of negative reviews but those are total bs and you just need to check it out yourself!

Nice list. A small tip (that you don't have to follow) but when doing top lists, it's quite nice if you can repeat the name of the game at the end of each number on the list, it's great for us that just listens to the video on the phone and whatnot. Not need as much in this video that's fairly short

Online social deduction games like Mafia Mystery, Werewolf, and Town of Salem are really great! 2 of them are basically online version of the irl game, just with some notches turned.

A few others we enjoy are:

Don’t mess with Cthulhu
Hail Hydra
Magic Ravnica Inquisition
Wolves of Mercia
Patriots and Redcoats
Salem 1692
Tortuga 1667
Jewel Heist
Werewords
Bang the Dice Game
Hoax
Saboteur

These are on top of the ones you cited. Did I mention we like Social Deduction games! 😳

My brother-in-law loves identity games - this list will come in handy! Secret Hitler and Werewolf are favorites... Have you tried "We're Doomed!"? It's fun, and supports being as cutthroat or as cooperative as you want, and is good, hectic fun! Loving the channel!

Blood on the Clocktower was great fun at the 2019 UK Expo - A shame that it still hasn't been released 🤷‍♂️

You forgot about the best social deduction game in modern history: Bamberg: a Witch Hunt.

It's actually my game and it's not out there yet hehe, but check my last uploaded video for a quick overview of the game.


Cheers fellows
