About the game
Description from the publisher: What better way to rid your village and the surrounding lands of the werewolf menace but to head up a powerful hunting party, designed to do just that? The Huntress is a one-shot wonder guaranteed to kill her target. The Mad Bomber takes out the two players closest to him if he’s killed. The Revealer has the ability to kill every single werewolf in just one night...unless he’s wrong about who’s a werewolf, in which case he dies. The Mystic Seer knows the exact role of her target. The Mentalist knows if any pair of players are on the same team or not. Not to be outdone by all the newfound power of these villagers, the Werewolves have a new wolf: the Alpha Wolf, who can turn a player into a wolf at night instead of eliminating him.

The listed playing time for Ultimate Werewolf: Hunting Party is 45–90 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game.
