could use some help reviewing a 13p Mini Theme I have in the works. there's one moderately complex mechanic the game revolves around, which is making balance a bit of a struggle. but there's nothing super crazy or bastard. would really appreciate some help.


edit: got some help, thanks.

Got one reviewer (thanks, Varsoon), but I'd like to get at least two sets of eyes looking over this. Shoot me a PM if you'd like to help.


Edit: Varsoon and Frozen Angel are cooler than you. I should be fine, but I certainly won't object to additional people reviewing it. If you'd like to help, you know where to find me.

I have a game I would like looked at for balance. There are group mechanics as well as hidden mechanics. I spent a long time asking a lot of people about this game. StrangeCoug did approve the setup and offered a tiny tweak to the game by saying one role was just a tad strong.

Well, I need another reviewer to help review my Akame ga Kill mafia. It's gonna be role madness, so I want another person to make sure it's properly balanced.

Running either a micro or mini theme based on some bizzare voting mechanics. The game isn't really "role madness" per se, but is very mechanic heavy and probably counts as bastard. A reviewer or three would be appreciated!

I'm looking for a couple qualified reviewers to help me with a 19p large theme bastard game I've been working on. Players win conditions may change but there is no cult.

Reviewers for large theme games need to have previously modded or backup modded a large theme themselves.

The game will have my get a room mechanic (if 2n-1 players vote for n players to have a neighbour, they can have one) as all of my games do. The flavour is Eurovision but you don't need knowledge of the flavour to play or review it.

Send me a PM if you'd like to help out.

If anyone has some time, I'd like some input on a semi-open mini theme game. 12 players. It doesn't have flavor and it's actually pretty simple, I think. It just an additional/unique voting mechanic and I want to make sure there isn't a breaking strategy or something that I'm overlooking. I think it will be fun to play and probably fun to analyze from a reviewer perspective too. :)

Feel free to reach out by PM! I'd greatly appreciate it.


A kind soul has reached out and will make the setup the best it can be.

Hey everyone!

I'm looking to mod my first personalized setup, and would be very appreciative of a review. It was going to be a Mini Normal, but I kinda like the flavour so I think it will end up being a Mini Themed game instead.

Anyway, if you want to help out and don't think you'd want to play in it, lemme know! :)

P.edit
Thanks everyone! =D

Once you /in to mod in the Normal Queue, N will assign you a review team. As such, there's not much point in having a separate review beforehand.

I'm looking for a few reviewers to look at an old setup I'd like to dust off and actually run. It's fairly involved and ultimately will need a co-mod or two. Please shoot me a PM.

By the way:
Setup's not nailed down absolutely right now, still a bit in flux, but I am currently in the process of (already!) writing a sequel game to Gistou, Agnigi.
It's 13 players, and a mini.
But I want to have at least one or two reviewers on it since I'm REALLY not sure about what I'm doing right now. :?

, 13p Mini Theme sequel to Gistou, is in design and could use reviewers!

Looking for a Back-up Mod to also serve as Reviewer for an upcoming Mini Theme game I'm working on. Back-up duties should be light as I don't have any vacation scheduled until the end of December. Flavor knowledge isn't required but might be helpful.

Pm if you might be interested in this exciting opportunity!


Position filled. Thanks Ircher!

Looking for some reviewers who qualify to mod/review large themes. The thing is still in early stages (as in, I just thought of something), but I'm searching early. It's 17p Large Theme, a couple of mechanics, and original flavor. The review process may take awhile as I'm busy with a lot of stuff right now, but if your interested, pm me!

Update #1: The sooner, the better. I got some stuff done already, but I'd rather balance the basics first before moving onto other things.

Update #2: 1 more pls; TTH and MagnofIllusion are taking a look already!

Looking to see if anyone has the time to review a 12-person RM game for me. It's pretty basic, just wanted some balance help.

Thank you in advance!

I'm looking for an
experienced reviewer
who enjoys reading
lots of flavor
to help me work on my original
Large Theme Game
setup.

(about me: I am from another site and have little modding experience and about 12 played games under my belt in the past year+, but also have played some "in-flesh" werewolf games with people. Also know that I tried playing 1 newbie game here and it was my first game I ever flaked on and I felt HORRIBLE about it - not how I wanted my presence here to start, but, I got sooooo unexpectedly busy that week, it was really unfortunate. I'm not a flake though.)

It will be for mature-audiences only. There is gore and sex, but also social, familial, romantic, friendly, etc. aspects that make it well-rounded literary-wise. It's also got a different angle to the game than typical.

It is very good for any level of role-play experience if desired by the players and I have it working in a way that I can be involved in the character roleplay without affecting gameplay (I think.) Role-playing for players is not required at all.

It's currently at 17 players, but I am also eventually working on expanding it / adding characters and roles (probably not until after I run it once here with 17 though.) Each character is a unique, fleshed-out character.

Setting
: Late 1600s middle-of-the-woods Pennsylvania, newly established small village community

Roles + Mechanics
: several non-standard roles of my tweaking that I think are very interesting and work very well together flavor+mechanics-wise. The role mechanics and their interactions are elaborate and have already been scrutinized by myself for almost a year, and I'd like the right person's feedback on it all. (I have gotten some feedback from a couple experienced mods from my site, but, not hardly much at all other than things like "check to make sure" obviousnesses.)

hmmm, I think that is all I will put here, if there are questions, please ask me (I don't want to tell too much about the game openly, as at the beginning of the game it's not even sure who the "bad guys" are, if any.)

I'd also want this reviewer to be assistant mod. for me eventually.
