Dive into the thrilling world of *Town of Salem*, where murder, accusations, deceit, and mob hysteria collide in an exhilarating social deduction game. With player counts ranging from 7 to 15, you're thrust into a chaotic society where you must navigate through the roles of Town, Mafia, Serial Killers, Arsonists, and Neutrals.

Defense
