Multiplayer server for classic Mafia game Werewolves. Plays in browser on WiFi
About this app
werewolves_game apk will run a werewolves_game site right on your device where other players on the same WIFI can connect (no internet needed). Apk will give you the webaddress (http, not https) were the game is running. First person to join the game site will be administrator and control the game settings (which roles to include, timers, etc.)
Best of all, the app acts as the automated game engine, meaning no human Narrator is needed. Everyone gets to play!
How to Install and Play:
Download apk, it is only for arm64 v8a devices (see Github for linux x86 and arm v7 versions). Apk will ask if you are sure to install, say Yes (game information and all source code is here in repository and apk is automatically built on Github by github-actions). When running the apk for the first time it will ask if it is okay to run in background while using, say Yes (or else werewolves_game server will not respond when in background). You can choose any port, default is 5000 (recommend >= 5000). Apk server will give you game the webaddress and QR code, for example http://192.168.1.5:5000, type or copy and paste that into a webbrowser. First person to join the game lobby will be administrator, initial password is "w". You need at least 4 players (7+ is best) to enable "Start Game" button. Once started, the game secretly assigns roles and automatically cycles through "Night" and "Day" phases, handling all the complex death, voting, and win logic for you. I recommend disable timers the first time playing and have administrator Advance Phase manually. Enjoy!
Core Features:
• Automated Game Loop: The server handles all phases, night actions, and win checks (Villagers win, Wolves win, or Solo wins).
• 📱 Pass-and-Play Mode: Only have one device? Play by passing a single phone around the room with a secure UI that guides players to confirm their identity before viewing their secret role.
• 👻 Ghost Mode: Keep eliminated players engaged! Ghosts have a small chance to participate during the accusation and lynch voting phases.
• 🎭 24 Unique Roles: Play with complex roles like the Alpha Werewolf, Prostitute, Lawyer, and Serial Killer.
• 🏆 Solo Win Conditions: Neutral roles like the Monster, Fool, or Demented Villager can win the game alone, ignoring traditional team allegiances.
• 🌍 Multiple Languages: Play a single game with the UI translated into multiple languages simultaneously.
• Robust Admin Controls: The lobby admin can adjust timer durations, kick players, and toggle game rules on the fly.
Gather your friends, connect to the same Wi-Fi, and find out who among you is a werewolf!

How to install this safely
How to verify the file you downloaded
Before you install anything, confirm the file is the one described here. On a computer, run shasum -a 256 your-download.apk (macOS or Linux) or certutil -hashfile your-download.apk SHA256 (Windows), then compare the output character-for-character with the SHA-256 on this page. If a single character differs, the file is not the build we recorded — delete it.
What the signing certificate proves
Every Android app is signed with a private key that only its developer holds. The fingerprint on this page is a hash of the matching public certificate, and it proves continuity rather than identity: it tells you a build came from whoever signed the earlier ones. Android enforces this at install time — if a package claiming to be io.github.davidchilin.werewolves_game is signed with a different key, the system will refuse to install it over your existing copy. A fingerprint that changes between releases is worth pausing on, because a repackaged app that has been modified by someone else cannot keep the original signature.
How to roll back to an earlier version
If the current release misbehaves, 1.0 is the last build before it. Android will not install an older version code over a newer one, so you must uninstall werewolves_game first — which clears its local data unless you have a backup. Reinstall the older APK only if its signing fingerprint matches the build you already trust, and check the API range: an older release may target an Android version your device has moved past.
Why we list sources instead of hosting everything
The official store channel is almost always the right choice: it updates automatically and carries the publisher's own distribution guarantees. A direct APK is useful when a device has no store access, when a rollout has not reached your region, or when you need a specific version — and only when the publisher has authorized that copy. APKBrowse does not list pirated, cracked, or unauthorized rebuilds of werewolves_game, and a listing is removed when the evidence for it stops holding up.

Permissions Required
What each permission lets werewolves_game do. A highlighted one is worth a second look — not necessarily wrong, just worth asking whether this app needs it.
Previous Versions
The signing certificate fingerprint for this release is on record, so a build that does not match it did not come from this publisher.
