Board Game - Blood on the Clocktower

Board game "Blood on the Clocktower"

A long time ago, in the sleepy town of Vransky Forest, during a hellish storm, at midnight, a terrible scream echoed off the ivy-covered stones in the winding streets.
Terrified townspeople rush to the town square to find out what happened, and see that the local storyteller has been killed:
his body pierced by the clock's hands, and blood drips onto the cobblestones that pave the square.
Curiosity quickly turns to fear: it becomes clear to everyone that a demon is freely walking in the city, killing at night while taking on a human form by day.
Each townsman knows part of the truth, but the demon and his wicked minions spread lies, confusing the trails and sowing suspicions about the villain's identity. Will the good townspeople be able to piece together the puzzle in time? Or will evil seize the once-peaceful town?
