A social deduction party game where crewmates vote out hidden impostors between chores.
West Hunt
Reads · Bluff & Deduction

Among Us
Role assignment and kill information hidden
West Hunt
Hidden identities among NPC crowds conceal the target.
Optimization3 vs 3
Same score on optimization - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Among Us
Task routes and vent logic give small edges
West Hunt
Task locations and tells are modestly learnable.
A matching score does not mean a matching test. Two games can both sit at 10 on execution and demand completely different things of you - which is why the reasoning above matters more than the number beside it.
