One Night Ultimate Daybreak | Standalone Hidden Role Mystery with Social Deduction, App-Supported Bluffing Experience, 3-7 Players, 10 Minutes

This is a great expansion to the original game (definitely get the base game first). It adds more roles and really helps build the game out, making it even more fun to play. It has that classic “traitor”/Werewolf-style feel where you’re constantly trying to figure out who you can trust, which keeps everyone engaged. Every round feels different, and it’s always a good time with a group. Overall, this is a fun add-on that brings more strategy and replay value to the game. I would definitely recommend it if you already enjoy the original!

Let's just put it this way. When my family first received One Night Ultimate Werewolf on Christmas morning 2019, we opened the box and read the instructions around 4pm, then stayed up until 2 in the morning playing it. Throughout the following week, we played for probably 6 hours every single night. We've since had 4 years of fun and unforgettable memories. We cannot get enough of it. I simply think it is the best game ever invented--the ultimate strategy, deduction, lying, manipulation, and hilarious extravaganza. I absolutely love the app--so that everyone can play and no one has to be a narrator. I truly admire the inclusion aspect--that everyone can have a unique role and task to play (no one has to be a plain, old villager). And I think the fact that it is just one night is frankly genius. It makes it so much faster to play rounds (as opposed to other mafia-style games) and puts less pressure on being a werewolf. I have friends who won't play other social deduction and bluffing games because it stresses them too greatly, but they will play ONUW because the rounds are so short and, of course, there's always the possibility that their card can be swapped! I think it's just brilliant. Every round is different. Every round calls for a new strategy. We can play hundreds of times because there are millions of possibilities for how the game can go! We've bought all the expansion packs, and we truly enjoy trying all the different combinations we can. This is my favorite expansion pack. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

This a extension pack to the game "one night werewolf" but it can be played by itself. I heard about these games at a retreat and my first though was " so dumb". I ended up reading other reviews and ordering it a few years later. Now it's one of our family's favorite games. We play is as a family including our little kids ( 5 and 9) for fun and not really following the rules. You definitely can play it with younger kids but it will be more for them than you. :) This game is good for kids 12 and up. The people playing it need to be able to lie and bluff. Our friend's teenage daughter is amazing at it. She is an amazing young lady and I was baffled at her game face. Our youngest player is usually 11 years old. At that age it's a hit or miss. They either get it or not. Now that we established the age let's get to the game. There are multiple characters in the game but in the end it comes down to 2 teams : the viliger and the were wolfs/ vampires ( depending which game you are playing ) We love these games so much we own all the pack and expansions. There is an app for the game which you will need to download in order to play. The game starts by choking which characters you want in the game. You need at least 2 wolfs and enough characters + 3 cards to be placed in the middle. Let's assume you have 6 players. That means that you would need 9 cards. Every player receives a card and you place 3 in the middle. You may look at your own card but not share it with anybody else. Then everybody places their card face down on the table closes their eyes and the fun begins. The app walks you through a series of actions, for example all werewolfs open their eyes so they can see each other, or one of the characters ( the robber) gets to exchange his card with somebody else's. After all actions are taken you will be told to open your eyes and atart the investigation. The viligers ( all characters other than werewolf) need to find out the werewolfs and the werewolfs don't want to be exposed. That means they have to lie and deceive. In the end the group decides who to accause of being a were wolf. If the person accused is indeed a werewolf or vamp the viligers team wins otherwise the werewolf win.

Daybreak adds plenty of variety and new roles to One Night Ultimate Werewolf, giving you a greater variety in customizing the game and fine tuning balance issues. While it technically works as a stand-alone game, I do not recommend it without the base game as the base One Night Ultimate Werewolf is designed with no other cards in mind and is better on the learning curve (doppleganger aside). Daybreak adds two stronger Werewolf cards - the mystic wolf and the alpha wolf - to help offer variety on the wolf side and buff the team if it isn't doing well. Additionally, the Dream Wolf card adds a weaker wolf to the mix to handicap team WW should you desire. Town gets several powerful new roles including the Witch and Revealer - both of which are incredibly powerful. Weaker roles like the sentinel, curator, and village idiot are also present, as well as an apprentice seer which functions as a weaker variant on the seer. Paranormal Investigator is a good role and well regarded, but I'm hesitant to try it on smaller games. While I don't like all of the roles, the revealer is one I want to play with almost every game, as well as the mystic wolf and the alpha wolf. Witch is a lot of fun, but it has a high potential for unbalancing the game as the witch can potentially make another player a werewolf and then out them. This is particularly bad when another town player can confirm that the player is the witch (robber, revealer, and seer can do this). Seriously, though, get Daybreak already. Get the original One Night Ulitmate Werewolf as well.

Likes: Relatively simple and excellent replay value in a small package. You draw a character blindly (townsperson or werewolf), look at your character, you hear instructions for your character each round and do their role. Then everybody argues about who's the werewolf. This is fun, because as the game continues you learn strategies for how to deceive people or convince them of whatever you want to convince them. Tactics change. Playing with three people was fun, playing with 6 people was better and more mysterious, even more would get better; the more people, the more characters, the harder to figure out who the werewolf is. Using the app is easy: you push a few buttons and the narrator tells you what to do and runs a timer. Dislikes: I don't like being dependent on an app. You aren't, but if you don't use the app, someone has to read long instructions out loud each time and skip around to find what order to read in. The card art is disney cartoonish and obnoxiously stereotypical in terms of gender and race.

Our friends introduced this game at game night and we rushed to order a copy of our own. It's like the game mafia but with fun characters. The whole family can play and the app makes it easy peasy! We love it and play it often.

I bought DAYBREAK as my first set into this series, and I love that every character has an action (vs. the original ONE NIGHT WEREWOLF, where some players just sit around the whole time with nothing to do). You don't need the original as this game can be played as a stand alone. I watched videos online of people playing this game before I bought it (having never played before), and it is a great party game! I have had a nephew struggle to play (not wanting to keep his eyes closed), but that's just an age thing, where he was 5, but had another 5 year old would be up for it. The game is very short! I love how there is a free app on my phone that does the speaking part for you!!!! A 3 minute game timer was perfect to say are part, and not think too long, in the hopes that whoever is lying may have tricked someone. Any longer, and it may be too obvious. Even with 3 minutes, sometimes we will go ahead and vote early. Here are my app settings if you aren't sure where to start (you can change to your preference): NARRATION: Male, Vol 10, EN BACKGROUND: Fantasy, Vol 5 GAME TIMER: 03:00, 1 Min, 30 Sec ROLE TIMER: 00:05, 2x Complex Roles OTHER: Lone, Labels, Move, Verbose

So much fun!! My family loves this pack with new abilities!

It was damaged during shipping

My 9-year-old grandson was delighted to receive another game in this series. He and his family (Mum, Dad and 12-year-old sister) love playing it. Excellent quality and fast delivery.

Ce jeu est marrant, très rapide et on s'amuse comme des fous. N'oubliez pas de télécharger l'application qui décompte les tours de chaque rôle (gratuite).

Amplia con nuevos personajes con roles que mejoran la experiencia, recomiendo comprar el primero ya que es más sencillo de entender, la app esta en idioma ingles como el juego, tiene costo aparte. Calidad buena de materiales y arte.

Daybreak is an essential expansion the Werewolf game, almost every character in this batch has an active, fun and easy to learn role
