Nephilim

Nephilim is a single-player social deduction game set in a world where humanity worships La Place, a machine that can predict the future. Its arrival brought humanity to a new level of development, and its followers built the Garden, a sanctuary surrounded by a huge wall. People outside the wall see the Garden as a utopia and join the religious order in the hope of being invited there. You are one of these followers, and after years of devotion you are invited to the Gathering, the final step toward moving to the Garden.

The Gathering

At the Gathering, you try to uncover a heretic who has infiltrated the order. The game simulates a werewolf-style deduction game with 12 NPCs, each with a different thinking pattern. As the game progresses, you can set the number of players and choose whether NPCs and titles appear.

Titles and abilities

Eight titles have different abilities, creating a range of situations. The order’s followers use deduction and voting to find the Nephilim, while other titles investigate, protect or attack participants:

• Follower: Has no special ability and uses deductions and voting to uncover the Nephilim.
• Oracle: Each night, chooses one survivor to learn whether they are Nephilim.
• Inquisitor: During the day's discussion, determines whether the participant sent to solitary confinement is Nephilim.
• Guard: Each night, chooses one survivor to protect from a Nephilim attack.
• Nephilim: Works to bring down the order and chooses one survivor to attack each night.
• Apostate: An oracle on the heretical side who allies with the Nephilim and identifies one survivor's title each night.
• Junkie: Cooperates with the Nephilim for the sake of electronic drugs.
• Irregular: Belongs to neither the order nor the heretics and can aim for a solo victory by avoiding the Oracle's target and surviving.
