## Description
Get ready for a night of pure distrust and suspicious glances! In The Werewolves of Miller's Hollow: The Village, the rebuilding of the village wasn't as peaceful as it seems. After years of ruins, new settlers arrived bringing hope, but also bringing a dark secret: werewolves are hiding among the citizens. The festive atmosphere in the tavern can be interrupted at any moment by a scream of terror when the moon rises. 

The big differentiator in this version is that you aren't just another face in the crowd. Besides having a secret role (which could be an innocent or a hungry predator), each player also takes on a profession or a business in the village. This adds an extra layer of strategy and interaction, as your character's abilities can influence the group's fate. This game works as both a standalone complete game and an expansion for the original version, but a heads-up: the card sizes differ from the base game, so be careful if you try to mix them! 

The dynamic is classic: during the night, the werewolves choose a victim to eliminate. During the day, the village must debate, vote, and try to uncover the monsters before everyone is devoured. It's a game of pure social deduction, where the best liar wins. It's perfect for gathering a large group of friends and testing who is the best liar in the squad!

## FAQ
### Can I play only the Village version or do I need the original game?
You can play Village alone! It is a complete and standalone game.

### How many players are needed for it to be fun?
The game shines with large groups, from 8 to 18 players. With fewer, the fun decreases.

### How long does a game last?
It's very quick, usually between 30 to 30 minutes per round.

### Is the game hard to learn?
Not at all! The rules are super simple; the real challenge is convincing others you are innocent.

### Do the Village cards work in the original game?
Watch out! The card size in Village is different from the original game, so mixing them isn't recommended.
