One human. A table that talks back.
Wolfcha recreates the part of Werewolf that is hardest to schedule: a complete table of distinct players. Choose your role, enter an 8–12 seat game, and let the AI handle every other personality, secret, accusation, and vote.
| Characters first | Table-aware memory | Decisions with intent |
|---|---|---|
| Each AI has a stable personality layered over a hidden game role. | Players follow speeches, votes, deaths, and changing suspicions. | They accuse, defend, bluff, follow, or hold back according to their faction goal. |
What happens at the table
- Night falls — Werewolves choose a target while special roles act on private information.
- The table speaks — Every surviving player explains, suspects, misdirects, or pushes a read.
- Everyone votes — The group turns conversation into a decision.
- The story changes — New deaths and revealed information reshape the next round.
You can play as Villager, Werewolf, White Wolf King, Seer, Witch, Hunter, Guard, or Idiot. Conversations are generated in real time, so the same setup can produce a very different table.
Built for atmosphere
- Retro visual direction with day/night eye-blink transitions.
- Lip-sync animation while characters speak.
- Dedicated role artwork for night actions.
- Optional AI voice playback and spectator mode.
Project origin
Wolfcha was created at the Watcha × ModelScope Global Hackathon. The name combines Wolf with Cha (猹) — part Werewolf, part spectator watching a table of AI personalities collide.
