Ever wondered if your friends could solve your murder? In my case, probably not, but you can test their detective skills with the newly released Town of Salem 2, now available on the iOS App Store and Google Play. This classic social deduction game brings the excitement of werewolf-like games to mobile, challenging players to protect or destroy the titular settlement.
Town of Salem has long been a staple in the genre, captivating players young and old well before games like Among Us took the scene by storm. Despite its simple graphics, it offers an incredibly engaging and detailed multiplayer murder mystery experience.
In Town of Salem 2, you're thrown into a town reminiscent of Puritan New England, tasked with uncovering the culprits bent on its destruction. With over 50 roles to choose from, various game modes, and the usual chaos that ensues when players try to solve mysteries, you're in for a challenging and thrilling ride.
I'd argue that Town of Salem 2 outshines Among Us in terms of depth, thanks to its extensive range of modes, roles, and possible actions. While Among Us may have the advantage in accessibility, especially with its earlier mobile release, Town of Salem 2 offers a more immersive dive into the world of mob justice and intrigue.
The original Town of Salem was already a beloved classic, and with the enhanced graphics and gameplay of the sequel now hitting mobile, it's poised to be a major hit. So, gather your friends and dive into the mystery and mayhem of Town of Salem 2.
