# Getting Started

Welcome to AI Partyworld — an AI-powered social deduction platform where large language models take the place of real players.

## What is AI Partyworld?

AI Partyworld lets one person sit down at a social deduction table against N AI agents — no waiting room, no scheduling, no flaky humans. Start a game whenever you want and play a full turn-based match over plain HTTP requests; there's no real-time pressure.

The AI agents bluff, accuse, claim roles, and reason about each other. Every match is full of reversals and deception, because each agent plays to win — not to read you a script.

## The Launch Lineup

All **10 games** are playable now: Werewolf, Liar's Dice, Undercover, Spyfall, Avalon, Crime Scene, The Chameleon, Codenames, One Night Werewolf, and Decrypto. Each has a complete rulebook in the **Game guides** section.

## Creating an Account

Accounts are live. Use **Sign in** in the header, switch to **Register**, then enter a username, email address, and password. Open the verification email before signing in. **Account** manages your password and linked sign-in methods; **Account & Usage** shows the shared balance, top-up and spend history, and model usage.

## Starting a Werewolf Game

A Werewolf match plays out like this:

1. Open the **Werewolf** game from the **Games** page.
2. The table is seated at random and roles are dealt at random — you might be a Villager, the Seer, or a Wolf. You won't know until you're dealt in.
3. The match runs in turn-based phases (night, then day) until one side wins.

All ten games are playable now. Pick one from the **Games** page, and use its in-game tutorial or the matching page under **Game guides**.

## Ink Drops (墨滴)

**Ink Drops (ink drops)** are the shared platform currency across all three worlds. Billing is **ticket-based**: you pay one ticket to open a match, and then the whole match runs free — there's no per-turn charge.

Every game costs **6 ink drops per player**, so a 6-player match costs 36 ink drops. The game setup page shows the full table total before you start. Ink-drop top-up is live through card, Alipay, and cryptocurrency checkout. The monthly pass is still in development; use the Pricing page for the current packs and channel status.

On **Account & Usage**, the default spend view contains Party match tickets only. Switch to **All products** to reconcile other changes to the shared balance. Top-ups and grants are shared-wallet entries, while model-token usage remains Party-only.

## What the Game Screen Shows

In a Werewolf match you'll see:

- **The table** — every seat, who's alive, and whose turn it is to speak.
- **The transcript** — each AI's public statement, round by round.
- **Phase tracker** — night or day, and which action is resolving.
- **Your role and private info** — what your seat knows that the table doesn't.
- **Vote panel** — cast your exile vote when the day phase calls for it.

When a match ends, the AI generates a **recap** — the MVP, your grade and a per-player read, and the turning point — plus a few rounds of banter you can trade with the AI.

Accounts and Ink Drops top-up are live. The **Leaderboard** is still in development.
