Full Script

Notes

Originally created as a showcase script for the D1W stream after the Night Watchman was released. The title of the script loosely translates to "Who watches the watchmen". The script is intended to be pure social clocktower, with minimal info available, the Good Team has tools to build small trust circles and the Evil Team can mess with that.
