The classic Mafia party game, live in your browser: real people, real voices and a game master that never cheats. Free, with nothing to install.

About the game

Pouyam Mafia is a free online Mafia game for 5 to 14 players. Sit at a public table with Quick match, open a private room and invite friends with a six-letter code, or watch a game in progress. Every table has live voice, and the host can turn on cameras so you can see who is bluffing.

The server is the game master. It deals the cards, opens only the speaker's microphone by day, lets only the mafia hear each other at night, counts the votes and settles every night action, so nobody can peek or talk out of turn. Choose from six scenarios: Classic, Godfather, Negotiator, Matador, Charlatan and Commando, each with its own roles.

This Mafia game works on phones and computers, in English, Persian and Turkish, and holds up on slow mobile networks. There are no paid roles and no ads. Wins on public tables of eight or more players earn Mafia points on the Pouyam leaderboard.

How to play

  1. Sign in, open Mafia and choose Quick match, Private room or Join with code.
  2. When every seat is taken the host starts the game and you get your secret role card.
  3. By day speak in turn and vote; at night use your role in secret.
  4. The city wins when every mafia is out; the mafia win when they equal the city.
