tag cooldownis how often someone can call the tag list, andauto-outwill automactally remove inactive players from the sign-up list. - Set your game settings. See below for details on each game and mode.
- Start playing!
A few notes:
- Wolfia automatically mutes and unmutes players as necessary to prevent non-players and dead players from talking during a game.
- Wolfia also runs private servers just for the Wolves/Mafia. Players receiving one of those roles will also get an invite to such a server in their role PM at the start of the game. You do not need to create any channels for Wolves/Mafia.
Access roleis for playing on private channels. You do not need to configure this unless Wolfia asks you to.

Permissions:
Wolfia requires some permissions to run games flawlessly. It will try to automatically set itself up with what it needs, or ask you to give it the required permissions to do so.
Using the official invite link provided at the top of this page, or by running the w.help command to invite Wolfia to your server, will have it request the required permissions. If permissions on your server are broken for Wolfia or the required ones have been updated, kicking and reinviting should restore permissions to a working state.
Nevertheless, and also for the control freaks among us, here is a comprehensive list of what is required and why:
Required
- - Read Message History
- Edit it's own messages after they have been sent
- - Use External Emojis
- The standarized emojis are not enough to display everything clearly, so Wolfia packs a bunch of custom ones
- - Embed Links
- Formatting of messages
- - Add Reactions
- Display vote counts
- - Manage Messages
- Clearing reactions off of votecounts
- - Manage Roles
- Moderate the game channel with permission overrides (and just that; Wolfia does not create or delete any roles for the players)
Optional
- - Create Instant Invite
- Adds invites to the channel where the game is running to role pms and private chat servers which makes for a smooth navigation for players during the game.

- A small selection of games and modes is supported. More stuff is being worked on.
- Bugs during games might happen. Please drop by the Wolfia Lounge to help sort these out.
- Data and commands might change without notice.
- Output and formatting of messages might look a bit rough.
Uptime over last 7 days:
Special mentions:
- Written in Java using the excellent JDA (Java Discord API). They maintain a super helpful crowd in their Discord guild.
- Several functions and architectural decisions inspired by and/or plain copy pasta’d from Frederikam’s music bot FredBoat.
- Thanks to the folks at Mafia Universe and their Discord guild for helping testing and refining the initial version.
