Ultimate Werewolf: Inquisition is a game of deduction and betrayal where werewolves have infiltrated both a village and your team of inquisitors! Unlike traditional werewolf games, there’s no player elimination here—everyone plays until the end, trying to uncover the hidden monsters. Humans must vote to eliminate werewolves, while the werewolves secretly sabotage the group. Each round, the Grand Inquisitor (a role that rotates) decides who’s in danger, and werewolves pick a victim from that pool. With voting mechanics, variable powers, and plenty of paranoia, it’s perfect for groups who love bluffing, deducing, and forming temporary alliances (that might end in betrayal!).

What’s the ideal player count?
Best with 6-12 players. Below 6, the chaos dials down.
Is there player elimination?
Nope! Unlike classic Werewolf, no one sits out—only characters get eliminated.
How long does a game take?
30-60 minutes, depending on player count and debates (which can get legendary!).
Do you need a moderator?
No! The game runs itself, with the Grand Inquisitor role rotating each round.
Is it hard to learn?
Lightweight (1.68/5 on BGG). Rules are simple, but strategy can be deep.
Worth it if I own other werewolf games?
Yes! The no-elimination mechanic and Inquisitor role offer a fresh twist.
