Have there been any setups that had working "time travel" mechanics? or Groundhog's Day type situations?

I have a 15 person small game ready to go whenever there is space for another small game. Very simple game, very limited in the form of power roles, but some fun flavor.

Anomalous Amalgam posted:I'm intrigued. I got an insight more from the second half of your statement re: "Groundhog Day". There's the god of time or something, and each day he chooses either 1 or 3 players in secret (not yet sure which I prefer, probably the 3). Before the day starts, the one person decides, or the 3 people decide by secret majority vote, whether at the end of the day we move to the next night, or the day resets as if nothing ever happened; this can only happen once per day. Make the game have a higher-than-average amount of day actions (and maybe remove the penalty for fake day-actions or at least partially), and I reckon this can give the opportunity for some nice bluffing. Note: Obviously, any flips from stuff like dayvigs would be delayed until end of day, if and only if the day actually ends there.

Anomalous Amalgam posted:Have there been any setups that had working "time travel" mechanics? or Groundhog's Day type situations? I played around with the idea for Culture mafia where the game would jump ahead from day 1 to day 3, with a role that essentially thunderdomes two people as the potential lunch targets for day 2 while scum also lock in their night 2 night kills. Then when Day 3 resolves, everything goes to day 2. It was far too complicated and I think too unfair to scum, essentially.

I was considering roles in a hypothetical Zero Escape mafia that treated the day as different days: voting to change the past or blind voting for the future, everyone with multiple lives and potentially multiple roles, basically play three games at once with stuff potentially affecting other “games” from within one “game”

I have a setup with a time travel mechanic that I've been sitting on for a few years. The theme is... completely ridiculous.

The League spiritual sequel is... more normal than most, ha. Coming in April, tho! The time travel game is called "Past, President, and Future" and I'll leave it at that.

With all the role madness and games with added complexities to them going on, I put together a simple 15 person small game. VERY role-lite. This is not a "solve with night actions" style game as there are no night actions beyond killing. Come experience the - Terror Aboard the USCSS Pequod
