The Werewolf Game

Three days after the college entrance exams, Gu Ling woke up in a luxurious villa deep in the mountains. There were eleven other young people there with her.

When someone tried to open the door and leave, a virtual screen lit up in the hall. The words it displayed filled everyone with terror.

"Welcome to the Werewolf Game"

Basic Rules:

1. Do not leave the villa. Anyone who refuses to participate, tries to escape the villa, peeks at another player's role card, or otherwise breaks the rules will be executed.

2. There are 12 villagers in the village, among whom are 3 werewolves.

3. Every night at 8:00 p.m., everyone must gather in the first-floor hall and vote for someone they believe is a werewolf. That person must be killed before 9:00 p.m. If no one is killed, everyone dies.

Night Rules:

1. From midnight to 6:00 a.m., players on the good team must lock their doors and cannot leave their rooms.

2. Between midnight and 2:00 a.m., the werewolves must kill one villager. If they don't, everyone dies.

Special Roles:

1. One villager is a Seer (a special villager) and can check the identity of one living person each night.

2. One villager is a Guard (a special villager) and can protect one person each night. The werewolves cannot open the door of the person being protected. The Guard cannot protect the same person two nights in a row, but can protect themself.

3. Two villagers are linked partners (special villagers). Each person's role card bears the name of the other.

Victory and Rewards:

1. The side that eliminates all the villagers or all the werewolves wins.

2. The winners receive a reward of 100 million star coins, divided equally among them.

When the rules had been read, the virtual screen went dark, and a trembling voice spoke up.

"Has anyone seen the Werewolf Game movie series from twenty years ago...?"

Reader's Guide:

1. The setup is inspired by the Werewolf Game movies. This is a fictional planet and country, so please don't associate it with China.

2. All participants are at least 18 years old. There are three rounds, and the story is expected to be around 200,000 words. The heroine survives.

3. The heroine is smart, neither saintly nor evil.
