  • Question
    Can I accuse if I am the wink murderer so people don't get suspicious?
    Community Answer
    No, then you'd be making an incorrect accusation, which would take you out of the game.
  • Question
    Am I FORCED to leave upon misaccusation?
    Jonah Hamman
    Community Answer
    Yes, otherwise one could accuse everyone, one after another, and the murderer would not stand a chance of victory. Although, if you accuse incorrectly, you can just sit, lay down, or leave the room/area.
  • Question
    What if I always laugh when I'm the murderer and everyone figures it out?
    Community Answer
    Just laugh even when you're not the murderer, then people can't tell if you're messing with them or if you're really guilty!
  • Question
    What if someone winks at a person who is not a murderer?
    Community Answer
    They'd probably get either reported and get someone out or they'd be eliminated from the game.
  • Question
    Wouldn't it be to obvious? Like when you wink, and then immediately run away?
    Community Answer
    You don't need to run away. Just wink at the victim. Then find another victim.
  • Question
    Who is the seconder?

    Community Answer
    When one says "I accuse," another person must "second," or agree with, an accusation. That person is the seconder.
  • Question
    What if someone winks who is not the murderer?
    Community Answer
    There are different rules for this scenario depending on what your group decides. They could be removed from the game, for example.
  • Question
    If I am playing with the three killers method, can the murders get each other out?
    Community Answer
    Decide this with your friends. Another method, however, is to have an agreed upon signal or gesture that means "I'm a murderer too."
  • Question
    How do I act more relaxed when I'm not the person who is the murderer?
    Community Answer
    Just act natural. Do whatever you'd normally do. Since you're not the murderer there is no need to try to "act" like anything.
  • Question
    Can the murderer wink if someone is accusing?
    Community Answer
    Usually no—it'd be too easy for the murderer to win if they could just wink at everyone who starts trying to accuse them.
  • Question
    What if you have a moderator that is your best friend and he/she tells you who it is secretly?

    Community Answer
    Then they are cheating. They should not be the moderator if they can't be trusted to not ruin the game for everyone.

    Why is it called wink murder?

    Community Answer
    A secretly chosen player can "kill" other players by winking at them in the wink murder party game or parlor game, which requires the other players to attempt to figure out who committed the murder.
