Cracking Idea
CRACKING IDEA
Cracking Idea is a variant to Greater Idea. It was created to maximise the playability of Greater Idea and added a bunch of different roles and a new Goo faction for this. It works just like other IDEA themes. Players get two possible roles and are allowed to pick one, the one they discarded is revealed. Also more than 50% of the players must have chosen town roles for the game to start. One special mechanic is that Aliens get a variable amount of kills: they get one kill a game per every four players the game started with. This theme requires 4 players to play.
