What is Mafia?
Mafia is basically a faithful rendition of the party game of the same name, which you can learn about at http://wiki.epicmafia.com.
At a basic level, Mafia is like Survivor With Guns. At night, the mafia elect to kill someone. At day, the town votes to lynch somebody. The mafia win when the town is dead and the town wins when the mafia are gone.
Of course, that's the simplest possible setup. There are in reality many roles and variations that can be used; my rendition of Mafia tries to include lots of options, but it is impossible to include all of the possible house rules that people might want (I'd be working until the day I die and not make even half of them).
For this reason, my Mafia will include roughly three dozen roles, many of which are familiar to veteran players, but some of which will be fairly unique. There are many options, but this is still my interpretation of the game; I have optimized the experience and game mechanics to work best with the battle.net service and playerbase.
What are the features?
Many combinations of options and role setups
Lots of custom UI, including a full-feature setup screen
Customized chat system
Dynamic tutorial system (optional)
Carefully-made game mechanics that flow smoothly and react dynamically
Lots of polish, including a natural day-night lighting scheme and several execution methods
A lot of other crap that you could find out by playing the map
What is done so far?
There are currently 9 roles (with about three dozen in total planned) and countless combinations of game options and role setups with more to come in the future. Beyond that, all of the game mechanics are finished. I will also add more execution types later on when I get bored.
Where can I play Mafia?
Play it on North American or European battle net, under the name -Mafia-. You can organize matches in the Mafia channel; this is the preferred method because the players are much less likely to leave mid-game and will be more knowledgeable about Mafia.
