Stabbin' in the Cabin

Description

Stabbin' in the Cabin is a hidden-role deduction game in the style of a cabin in the woods style slasher film. You play as a group of American teenagers who have gone to a cabin in the woods for a nice weekend, but unfortunately one of the teens is a secret stabber who just wants to murder everyone with knives.

The game is played over a series of night and day phases where the teens are each placed in an empty room of the cabin, because the first rule in horror films is everyone has to split up, and then stab each other. The secret stabber is trying to kill at least half of the teens and the innocent teens are trying to find and kill the secret stabber first.

Because the teens can only stab people in adjacent rooms the players need to use logic to figure out who could have done all the secret stabbings, and to make matters worse, the secret stabber can activate their booby trap once per game to stab anyone on the board.
