We've a game-playing family in the B&B at the moment; one keen gamer and his game-accommodating family.  They'd brought along a copy of Blood On the Clocktower, a game I'd seem a lot about but had never played.  As it needed more players, we joined in.

It's a "social deduction" game.  Everyone has a hidden role, with a unique skill, and by discussion and 'logic' you are trying to identify the 'baddies' in the group before they slowly kill off all the 'goodies'.  

People rave about it, and I can see it's well designed.  We enjoyed it well enough but we're quite a long way from raving.

It's probably better with a larger group. We were seven which is at the lower end.  However, with twenty (the maximum I think) it would be a lot longer.  Not sure I'd be playing it enough to find where the happy medium is.
