The city of Palermo never sleeps peacefully. Every night, the shadows in the streets grow thicker and the Mafia secretly plans its next move. Ordinary citizens try to protect their community, while the Police Officer and the Doctor fight their own battles behind the scenes to save those in danger. The tension peaks every time the sun rises, as the residents gather in the square to decide whom to trust and whom to send to prison. One wrong decision can be fatal for an innocent person, while the Mafia lurks among you, ready to prevail.
Palermo: The Great Purge is a classic social deduction, mystery, and survival game that has been loved by generations of players. It is the ultimate game for large groups, where bluffing, observation, and persuasion are your only weapons. In a city where no one is who they seem, players are called to discover the culprits before it's too late or to lead their opponents down the wrong paths.
A taste of the game!

Everything you need to know to play
The game is coordinated by a Narrator, who does not actively participate in the gameplay but directs the phases and the flow of the story. At the beginning, each player receives a secret card that determines their role. The players are divided into two camps: the Citizens (who do not know who is who) and the Mafia (who know the members of their team).
Each round consists of two main phases, Night and Day. During the Night, all players close their eyes. The Narrator wakes up the Mafia, who silently choose a player to eliminate. Then, the special roles wake up: the Detective can check a player's identity to find out if they are a Mafioso, while the Doctor can choose a player to protect from the Mafia's attack.
When morning comes, the Narrator announces which player was "eliminated" during the night. This is followed by the discussion phase, which is the most critical. The Citizens try to analyze the behavior of the others and identify the Mafiosos, while the Mafiosos themselves try to mislead the group. At the end of the day, a vote takes place and the player who receives the most votes leaves the game. The Citizens win if they manage to eliminate all members of the Mafia, while the Mafia wins if the number of its members equals the number of remaining Citizens.
