Mafia Moderator
A second-screen referee and tournament host app for social deduction games including Among Us, Werewolf, and private 'Mafia' nights with friends.
Friend groups and small Discord communities running private Among Us or social deduction game nights
- Auto-assigns roles, secret missions, and 'reveal' moments for the host
- Public voting tally with anonymous ballot display so no one has to count by hand
- Round-by-round replay log you can rewatch or share after the game
- Custom rule packs (no emergency meetings, double-impostor, custom roles)
138 stars on a cheat tool show Among Us players crave more information and control; a legitimate host-side referee channelizes that demand without breaking the game's social contract.
Companion apps clearly exist (CrewLink/BetterCrewLink, The Other Roles mod, Mafia & Werewolf Moderator on Play Store) showing ongoing interest, but Among Us player base has contracted sharply from its 2020-2021 peak, and 138 GitHub stars is a modest signal.Mafia & Werewolf Moderator - Apps on Google Play ↗Releases · OhMyGuus/BetterCrewLink - GitHub ↗
The Mafia/Werewolf moderator niche has a direct competitor already (Mafia Host on Google Play), but an Among-Us-specific second-screen referee with chat log, role tracking, and tournament features appears less saturated — mostly held by free mods (The Other Roles, CrewCore) rather than polished apps.Mafia & Werewolf Moderator - Apps on Google Play ↗The Other Roles - Among Us Wiki ↗
Dominant Among Us companion tools (BetterCrewLink, CrewLink, The Other Roles, Bean Mod Manager) are all free/open-source or donation-supported; existing Mafia moderator app's monetization is unclear and game-companion apps historically monetize poorly without large communities.BetterCrewLink by matadogames ↗Bean Mod Manager - Among Us Mods - CurseForge ↗
Among Us popularity has declined materially since its 2020-2021 viral peak; Discord social-deduction communities remain active but core Among Us game-night frequency is shrinking, putting a hard ceiling on long-term growth for an Among Us-tied referee app.Discord servers tagged with social-deduction | DISBOARD ↗Mafia & Werewolf Moderator - Apps on Google Play ↗
Building a Mafia/Werewolf host moderator (timer, roles, voice cues) is straightforward; the harder part is Among Us lobby-state integration without modding, which requires reverse-engineering or official API support — possible but raises dev scope and risk.Mafia & Werewolf Moderator - Apps on Google Play ↗Releases · OhMyGuus/BetterCrewLink - GitHub ↗
