Adam and company, what is that wonderful spooky background music you use for your live blood on the clocktower games? I enjoy it so much I'd like to add it to my playlist for my own creepy board game nights!
blood on the clock tower April fools game where they do just shove 10 farmer tokens into a bag and the game is about figuring out that there's just 10 farmers
@@gabthang8 Ben did do something to that effect as an atheist game - I think there may have been two balloonists and I'm sure there were three clockmakers. It was very funny but unfortunately also very easy for the good team to figure out
It's fascinating to see each players real personality influencing the way they role-play the various characters they draw throughout the season as well as the biases the others grow against them as the season moves on.
2:09:15 Adam: "You stole Mara's demonhood for no reason!" Tempest just spat out his coffee in rage! Tempest: "And what sort of person would do that, eh, Adam?!?!"
Glad to see Dom Allen where he rightfully belongs... as the main character! I saw someone suggest that we Dom fans refer to ourselves as Dom Pérignons, so... DOM PERIGNONS, RISE UP!
Brooke- "I'm having my relationship thrust upon me in a tent" Sully- "In many ways yes" Adam and Sully proceed to lose their shit. I also lost mine. That was a great laugh.
"Only farmers" Leads to a funny game idea of the atheist in a game where half the people are given farmer with legion on the script so some people think they all chose the same bluff and never trust the athiest claim.
While Carley is a great player, Laurie would be the person I would listen to when playing. Of all the episodes I have watched, he is usually the one that his figured it out or at least is on track. Carley tends to manipulate so much that I wouldn't trust anything she says.
SPOILERS . . . Good LORD it is frustrating even as an outside party watching Laurie consistently guess exactly what's happening early on, being right...and still losing literally all but one game.
Laurie was unfortunately still alive, which meant his word could be doubted. The world where he was the Pit Hag also worked, based on how the game went.
He's usually super sus for the rest of the group even when he hasn't done anything suspicious, so nobody listens to him. Unfourtunately, I think it's a meta that is already established in the group and won't change soon
Or similar to the new vizir who can force an execution when someone is on the block: the ghost lawyer can force a tie once so the two people on the block DON'T get axed.
"The defence rests in peace" is an actual banger line Edit: Goodness gracious James that theme song at the end is one of the greatest things to come out of this channel, fantastic stuff
Do feel kinda bad for Mara, just totally lost their demon role ENTIRELY because Carley didn't understand a role. It's not even a case of Carley having a genuine reason to think the Magician was there, just the faint possibility of a Magician (in her mind) meant the demon had to be abandoned no matter what
I guess so, I'm still shocked that Carley of all people didn't understand a role properly, lol. I guess it is a bit better than the Tempest episode as at least she still won.
@@idkanymore6204 The demon gets three bluffs, that is three roles to claim that are definitely NOT in play. When the demon is asked to name three possible roles it's easy to list the three bluffs they received. By hesitating, it suggests that Mara could not be the demon.
Holy crap! I did not catch that at all! Good eye. This group is really fun and talented. I’m so happy they have these wonderful games recorded, I’m sure they have all gone back and watched the final edit so they can see what everyone else was doing while they were playing. Such a great way to use the internet and video recording.
It's usually not a good idea anyway to give all 3 of your bluffs in 3 for 3 as you're likely to hand both of the ones you're not using to you minions and it wouldn't be good to link you all together like that
@@acenomadic Yeah. Whenever I'm the Demon, I never claim all three bluffs in a 3-for-3. I tend to claim the bluff that I picked for myself and two other roles from the script that might be in play. I don't want to end up in a situation where my Minions and I can be identified because we gave the exact same 3-for-3.
@@Dragonatrix I thought Poppygrower was a setup ability, since don't the Demon/minions learn who each other are before night 1 technically starts? Because, like let's take another similar scenario on a script with no philosopher, but a poisoner and a magician. Poisoner would be first in the night order, but couldn't poison snipe the magician to 50/50 let the other minion/demon get only correct information, and that feels like by the same logic, a philo-poppygrower couldn't preempt the evil team from learning each other.
In most of the in-person episodes someone tends to ask who or how many people are still alive in the 3rd or 4th day, maybe for the next round of recordings you could get some black sashes or something for the dead people to wear as a clear indicator :)
This game demonstrates really well how crucial it is for the town to know which demon it is. Yes, they could technically all have been Leech Hosts at the end, but Dan was the most likely candidate for that. They all seemed to think so. Only the fear of a different demon lead them to vote on the other two guys, who both were under a lot of suspicion of _being the demon themselves_ - exactly the people you shouldn't kil if it's a Leech game. But they didn't know it was.
Finally played my first game of this because I found somewhere that did it in my town and Ben was just randomly there haha. Didn't get a chance to talk to him because I was in the beginners game but had so much fun. Fully recommend trying it to anyone that's on the fence :)
I just realised how Carley "messing up" and turning Luke into the Lleech/killing Mara actually saved them from Adam pointing at Jon the Sage, and Mara probably rolling with that to make Adam believe he is the demon. freaky coincidence but Carley might have saved the game unintentionally!
Man I gotta learn to stop promising things on the internet. In my defense, did he really play the character the whole episode? I mean he had to lie to stay hidden right? Which means I'm off the hook right? LOL
Adam: So you just STOLE Mara’s demonhood for NO REASON? Adam as Scarlet Woman: *stole Tempest’s demonhood for no reason* I’m hoping this means he regrets that move and has matured as a player?
Tempest, after being given the Lleech token and assigning a host, immediately killed that host. Adam didn't steal anything. Could easily be argued that Adam's play was stupid, but Tempest's was turbo stupid.
@@kev_whatev I have only found in-person groups where most players are new. As much as I enjoy playing with new players, it feels completely different and couldn’t replace playing online for me.
I think I enjoy their online episodes more than their in-person ones. Online, you have Ben talking to the players at night, which is funnier cause they can react to whatever they're told, sometimes hilariously
Ah, the Ghost Lawyer, also known as the fusion of two excellent Shu Takumi game series: Ace Attorney and Ghost Trick! And the story of this game had about as many twists as the average Shu Takumi plot xD - excellent fun
Just an initial thought. Spoilers. I love that Adam getting the Lunatic feels like the least surprising thing ever. It was a role that was made to be played by him HAHAHAHA
I don't know, the creator of BotC dubbed her the Queen of BotC because she's so good at the game. I think she might have pretended to get that wrong to convince Luke to go along with it. I think she read the room very well and expected Mara to be discovered on day 2 (which she likely would have based on Adam the Lunatic picking Jon the Sage), so she came up with this plan to pour some chaos in the pot. Whether it was on purpose or not, it worked. And that is why she is the Queen of BotC. :)
@@hoebare If that was the case though, why would she not admit that she did know how the magician works after the game was over, since there was no longer a reason for her to pretend not to know how it worked? Far more likely she just misunderstood how the role functioned, but it ended up being ok for the evil team since it created so much confusion.
@@moon58438or rather lie about knowing how the magician works rather than saying she had 0 faith in having Mara as her demon - hence the whole run around to make Luke the demon and leave Mara on her own for most of the game
This has GOT TO BE... *THE BEST EPISODE YET!* So many fckng plot twists!!! 1. Imp and Lunatic DIES ON NIGHT 1?!?! 2. People nominating and defending themselves. 3. Minions abandoning their Demon. 4. DAN ALMOST WINNING THE NIGHT BEFORE! 5. Farmer-ville chaos! 6. Dan and Laurie cuddling
I find it extremely difficult to follow anything that Carley says. She seems to jump wildly between like 15 trains of thought in between her numerous verbal pauses.
only starting this episode but seeing the length of this episode has me so hyped… i know it’ll be an epic one edit: wow, the way carley ended up puppeteering this game was amazing
I'm actually also pretty proud of how luke played this game. Killing Carly without her knowing takes guts, but it was easily the best move and he went for it, leading to an amazing win in the end
I feel like the crew too often don't call Carley out when her points don't make sense. Like when she says "if it was a leech they'd have changed demon type again, and it would be too late in the game for a double death to signal a demon change". There's no room for the pit hag to have changed themself into a demon, since the old demon would need to be killed off and literally every night kill after night two, up until Carley died, was a confirmed good player. If it was just a demon *type* change, the ST would almost certainly kill *nobody* to signal the change.
Adam desperately hoping he was somehow part of the evil team at 2:04:25 was incredible. If mara had just claimed she was the gambler who killed themselves N2 Adam would have gone this whole game thinking HE was the demon that Carly and Luke abandoned. At the beginning of this episode I thought maybe it's time to retire the lunatic for a while, but Adam's desperate grasp for a trophy at the final reveal has made me reconsider.
This seems like a fun custom script! Ghost Lawyer was the funniest thing I've heard in a while! I really love all the beginning narratings that Tom has come up with! Also, shout out to the lighting and set desingers, and the audio crew! Beautiful set and this has been such a big undertaking to the channel and all the people working on it! Safe to say, we all love this series!
Completely honest opinion here: While I enjoyed the game overall, this was the least enjoyable game in the In-person series so far. It had plenty of fun moments but, on the whole, it was more frustrating than fun purely because Carley got the rules wrong and no one corrected her, and that's almost exclusively the reason they won. It felt like a cheap, hollow victory. I loved Dom's Ghost Lawyer, I loved the Farmer antics, I loved Adam the Lunatic "converting" Jon (but not actually), but the fact that nobody stepped in the correct Carley's mistake, causing Mara to essentially lose their entire Demon game and never get to use it to it's full potential, feels like an injustice. Obviously, as long as everyone involved had a good time, then all this is irrelevant, because my opinion doesn't matter in that case, but that's what I thought. So, *_TL;DR,_* There was plenty of good moments, but the ending was wholely unsatisfying. Worst of a Great bunch, 6/10.
The joke about everyone being farmers is great, that needs to be a run at some point where everyone is a farmer except for an atheist so the story tellers can just sow chaos among farmers, maybe a cult leader
Carley tends to be action oriented to try and solve the script. When she keeps putting doubt in possible scenarios, creating more scenarios, and encourages discussion...normally she is evil. Especially if there are only 3 players, she would be freaking out.
I would love to see a series of BotC games where Tom is the main storyteller and Ben is his assistant, using the skills that he has learnt from Ben. He could even storytell an atheist game as his final challenge.
Dom's Ghost Lawyer bits and the Adam voice (not to be mistaken for NRB Adam, just a guy who looks/sounds exactly like him with the same name) were the bu-bwest parts of this ebisode
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE release ghost lawyer as its own single or like produce the series or something. I need more ghost lawyer content (I have TH-cam music so if I could get this on that that would be great)
Carley is so forward and full of conviction in her world views that she convices Luke of something wrong and he goes along with it despite being told the contrary by the story teller.
There is one on the Patreon that I wished was the regular one for the month, but I think that one came out the same month as when Adam stole Tempest’s demonhood. So I understand why they chose that one to upload on TH-cam instead.
@@gabthang8 I'm subscribed to the patreon, there really wasn't. There was one where Jon kinda thought he was a lunatic but never fully figured it out until the last day but that's about it.
Yeah I’m surprised he didn’t think about the pithag thing. Plus since they had almost 100% picked up that the two kills were due to PitHag, he should’ve known that his jump to Jon (if he was an outsider) wouldn’t have gone through.
The fact that he realized this at 2:04:25 and desperately asked if he was on the evil team was incredible. The timid hope in his question followed by embarrassed dejection cuts deep.
Right. If he had been the demon then he would have destroyed his teams chances, and he very much could have been the demon. Adam seems quite willing to throw his own team under the bus on occasion (this isn't the first game its happened).
Unless the video/storyteller messed up, it was mechanically impossible for Adam to be the real demon. On the night the pit hag made a Leech, the real demon did not get to choose someone to die, but the lunatic did.
Nobody suggested that Dan could have been pit hagged into the farmer to "prove" Sully was innocent. I know he died when it happened but that would have been an awesome play, he could have been a minion. What a great show though. Poor Adam and Mara.
@@ArtemisMunoz but if Sully was pit hag all along and changed Dan to be farmer and his leech killed him the same turn to make it seem like he was telling the truth about being the farmer....there could have been a world 4
Cool idea, but I think not possible in this game. With the information out there, the poisoner (who poisoned Brooke) had to be turned into a demon on night 1 to explain the extra death. So therefore if Sully was a minion he'd have to be the pit hag. And he couldn't have pit hagged Dan and been killed in the same night since the demon kill happens first.
so Dom appears to be getting younger, I swear if he has found the fountain of youth and is keeping it all for himself...that's pretty in character actually, fair play.
When he wasn't a lawyer before he died I started laughing so much I started coughing and tears where flowing. Such a weird, but also perfect, backstory!
Really love this series, I found BOTC from NRB and now play games semi regularly with an online community and it’s amazing!! Recently had the amazing privilege of playing a game with daddy Ben and it was honestly the favourite game I’ve played so far, thank you so much NRB and the community, through you I’ve found something special 😊x
Carley not understanding how a Magician works is surprising for someone with her experience, and that really changed the game. Even after Luke got clarification that all but proved there was no Magician in play!
Yes but the problem was that Luke never got a chance to tell her because Carley was avoiding him to hide they were on teams. Ironically her blunder created an almost perfect world for them
Reading through the comments, it seems like I'm the only person (or in the minority) who thinks it's all a lie. She never misunderstood the role, she just assumed Mara would be found a lot sooner and she tried to save the evil team..
I think she wouldn't make a mistake like that. She wanted to be in more control of the game so she killed off the demon and made another one closer to her. Bit weird to lie about it.

Whether it was on purpose or not, it worked. And that is why she is the Queen of BotC. :)
@@hoebare If that was the case though, why would she not admit that she did know how the magician works after the game was over, since there was no longer a reason for her to pretend not to know how it worked? Far more likely she just misunderstood how the role functioned, but it ended up being ok for the evil team since it created so much confusion.
Carley's biggest flaws are that she talks _way_ too much and is _way_ too overconfident
But tuats exactly what makes people trust her and lets her manipulate them,; its a double edged sword@@hecticscone
@@moon58438or rather lie about knowing how the magician works rather than saying she had 0 faith in having Mara as her demon - hence the whole run around to make Luke the demon and leave Mara on her own for most of the game
You gotta walk before you run. First Luke found out that he is, in fact, Luke. Next, he won his first game as a Demon✌🏻
😂
Tom continues to outdo himself with the opening monologue
This has GOT TO BE... *THE BEST EPISODE YET!*
So many fckng plot twists!!!
1. Imp and Lunatic DIES ON NIGHT 1?!?!
2. People nominating and defending themselves.
3. Minions abandoning their Demon.
4. DAN ALMOST WINNING THE NIGHT BEFORE!
5. Farmer-ville chaos!
6. Dan and Laurie cuddling
@Geek it was unexpected and that's why I love it
Favorite scene is Brooke being forced to watch Sullivan and Adam "naturally" kissing 😂 10/10 episode! Came down to the wire.
always live for Adam and Sullivan's kissing actions
I find it extremely difficult to follow anything that Carley says. She seems to jump wildly between like 15 trains of thought in between her numerous verbal pauses.
She’s playing to the uncertainties and numerous possible worlds in the mind of a confused player. She’s demonstrably good at it.
Ghost Lawyer must now become an actual show, starring Dom. 👍
the song at the end is priceless. a strong competitor to the minstrel song tbh
only starting this episode but seeing the length of this episode has me so hyped… i know it’ll be an epic one
edit: wow, the way carley ended up puppeteering this game was amazing
I'm actually also pretty proud of how luke played this game. Killing Carly without her knowing takes guts, but it was easily the best move and he went for it, leading to an amazing win in the end
I would so much appreciate if at some point you guys could put sub-titles on these for the hard of hearing. 🥰
This is honestly the best series on TH-cam 💖😊
I feel like the crew too often don't call Carley out when her points don't make sense. Like when she says "if it was a leech they'd have changed demon type again, and it would be too late in the game for a double death to signal a demon change". There's no room for the pit hag to have changed themself into a demon, since the old demon would need to be killed off and literally every night kill after night two, up until Carley died, was a confirmed good player. If it was just a demon *type* change, the ST would almost certainly kill *nobody* to signal the change.
Missed an opportunity for "Get on gourd" for the farmer jokes.
PLEASE do another kickstarter for a second season! This absolutely deserves to keep going!!
Adam desperately hoping he was somehow part of the evil team at 2:04:25 was incredible. If mara had just claimed she was the gambler who killed themselves N2 Adam would have gone this whole game thinking HE was the demon that Carly and Luke abandoned.
At the beginning of this episode I thought maybe it's time to retire the lunatic for a while, but Adam's desperate grasp for a trophy at the final reveal has made me reconsider.
If you look, you can see the moment I thought about doing this, didn't, then immediately regretted it.
@@marajoy7226Gg Mara! I caught that too - a better bluff came up as info was revealed but I think it was best play to stick to your guns at that point
@@marajoy7226 You've been a fantastic addition to this group for clocktower ^^
This seems like a fun custom script! Ghost Lawyer was the funniest thing I've heard in a while! I really love all the beginning narratings that Tom has come up with!
Also, shout out to the lighting and set desingers, and the audio crew! Beautiful set and this has been such a big undertaking to the channel and all the people working on it! Safe to say, we all love this series!
Completely honest opinion here:
While I enjoyed the game overall, this was the least enjoyable game in the In-person series so far.
It had plenty of fun moments but, on the whole, it was more frustrating than fun purely because Carley got the rules wrong and no one corrected her, and that's almost exclusively the reason they won. It felt like a cheap, hollow victory.
I loved Dom's Ghost Lawyer, I loved the Farmer antics, I loved Adam the Lunatic "converting" Jon (but not actually), but the fact that nobody stepped in the correct Carley's mistake, causing Mara to essentially lose their entire Demon game and never get to use it to it's full potential, feels like an injustice.
Obviously, as long as everyone involved had a good time, then all this is irrelevant, because my opinion doesn't matter in that case, but that's what I thought.
So, *_TL;DR,_* There was plenty of good moments, but the ending was wholely unsatisfying. Worst of a Great bunch, 6/10.
The joke about everyone being farmers is great, that needs to be a run at some point where everyone is a farmer except for an atheist so the story tellers can just sow chaos among farmers, maybe a cult leader
Song at the end for Ghost Lawyer is perfect theme song
Carley tends to be action oriented to try and solve the script. When she keeps putting doubt in possible scenarios, creating more scenarios, and encourages discussion...normally she is evil. Especially if there are only 3 players, she would be freaking out.
I would love to see a series of BotC games where Tom is the main storyteller and Ben is his assistant, using the skills that he has learnt from Ben. He could even storytell an atheist game as his final challenge.
I will say, it’s nice to see Laurie in the endgame
Dom's Ghost Lawyer bits and the Adam voice (not to be mistaken for NRB Adam, just a guy who looks/sounds exactly like him with the same name) were the bu-bwest parts of this ebisode
Carley being so confident even when she’s completely blatantly incorrect is such a fun to watch.
Ghost Lawyer is my absolute favourite NRB character arc 😂
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE release ghost lawyer as its own single or like produce the series or something. I need more ghost lawyer content (I have TH-cam music so if I could get this on that that would be great)
SO EXCITED FOR ANOTHER IN PERSON BOTC!
Dom Allen: Ghost Lawyer! I would watch it just because.
Carley is so forward and full of conviction in her world views that she convices Luke of something wrong and he goes along with it despite being told the contrary by the story teller.
The conversation with the ST came too late. He couldn’t get another conversation with Carley before she used her ability.
This was a fantastic episode but oh my god the ghost lawyer outro had me in tears lol
"Ghost Lawyer: Coming this fall to NBC, the defense rests- in peace!" is like the perfect 30 Rock joke to not come from 30 Rock
I started 2 months ago and I have now finished them all. I am legit emotional. What a SERIES 😢❤❤❤❤
Ghost lawyer is my favorite thing ever
I just want one game, ONE GAME, where we get to see the Lunatic actually work.
There is one on the Patreon that I wished was the regular one for the month, but I think that one came out the same month as when Adam stole Tempest’s demonhood. So I understand why they chose that one to upload on TH-cam instead.
@@gabthang8 I'm subscribed to the patreon, there really wasn't. There was one where Jon kinda thought he was a lunatic but never fully figured it out until the last day but that's about it.
Ohh Tom's opening speech was one of the best he's done, and he's had some absolute bangers.
Ben's unadulterated glee at 39:31 is absolute gold
I love Mara so much, so wholesome and sweet 😭
Sully shouldn't have came right out and announced he was the farmer. He should have waited for Dan to come to him, no?
Agreed
Everyone but the farmer has claimed the farmer 😂😂 brilliant. I love this group so much omg
Dear lord, everyone is a farmer 😂 would be a hilarious prank to tell everyone they are the farmer, this is great fun.
Great episode. Wish this series was weekly! Probably my most anticipated show on TH-cam.
The end bit is absolutely amazing. Now I want to see ghost lawyer.
The song at the end was a perfect wrap up to this absurdity
Carley, many episodes ago: "When I'm evil, I like to act in very game-shaping ways."
Surely, you all watch your own episodes ;)
Honestly, Adam could have been the real starting Demon the whole time (from a mechanical perspective), I don't know why he wrote himself off so easily
Yeah I’m surprised he didn’t think about the pithag thing. Plus since they had almost 100% picked up that the two kills were due to PitHag, he should’ve known that his jump to Jon (if he was an outsider) wouldn’t have gone through.
The fact that he realized this at 2:04:25 and desperately asked if he was on the evil team was incredible. The timid hope in his question followed by embarrassed dejection cuts deep.
Right. If he had been the demon then he would have destroyed his teams chances, and he very much could have been the demon. Adam seems quite willing to throw his own team under the bus on occasion (this isn't the first game its happened).
Unless the video/storyteller messed up, it was mechanically impossible for Adam to be the real demon. On the night the pit hag made a Leech, the real demon did not get to choose someone to die, but the lunatic did.
Nobody suggested that Dan could have been pit hagged into the farmer to "prove" Sully was innocent. I know he died when it happened but that would have been an awesome play, he could have been a minion. What a great show though. Poor Adam and Mara.
Couldn’t have happened unless Sully was Pit Hagged out first. Pit Hag can only change to not in play characters.
@@ArtemisMunoz but if Sully was pit hag all along and changed Dan to be farmer and his leech killed him the same turn to make it seem like he was telling the truth about being the farmer....there could have been a world 4
@@esthermills637 Ah yes. Misunderstood you. That would indeed have been an excellent play!
Cool idea, but I think not possible in this game. With the information out there, the poisoner (who poisoned Brooke) had to be turned into a demon on night 1 to explain the extra death. So therefore if Sully was a minion he'd have to be the pit hag. And he couldn't have pit hagged Dan and been killed in the same night since the demon kill happens first.
If you don't worship Dom Allen, what are you even doing with your life.
These in person games give me life. I would kickstart 100 of these
so Dom appears to be getting younger, I swear if he has found the fountain of youth and is keeping it all for himself...that's pretty in character actually, fair play.
When he wasn't a lawyer before he died I started laughing so much I started coughing and tears where flowing.
Such a weird, but also perfect, backstory!
Ghost Lawyer and the song was great fun. Great episode as always.
Smokes, this was a BANGER of a game.
Really love this series, I found BOTC from NRB and now play games semi regularly with an online community and it’s amazing!! Recently had the amazing privilege of playing a game with daddy Ben and it was honestly the favourite game I’ve played so far, thank you so much NRB and the community, through you I’ve found something special 😊x
They really should do an April fools episode where everyone gets told farmer
can’t believe they are wearing the same clothes from a month ago 😤
Carley is such a brainiac even when she fucks up day one she carries the game. Amazing!
Ghost lawyer can be an actual show I would watch it lol 😂
Carley not understanding how a Magician works is surprising for someone with her experience, and that really changed the game. Even after Luke got clarification that all but proved there was no Magician in play!
Yes but the problem was that Luke never got a chance to tell her because Carley was avoiding him to hide they were on teams. Ironically her blunder created an almost perfect world for them
Reading through the comments, it seems like I'm the only person (or in the minority) who thinks it's all a lie. She never misunderstood the role, she just assumed Mara would be found a lot sooner and she tried to save the evil team..
I think she wouldn't make a mistake like that. She wanted to be in more control of the game so she killed off the demon and made another one closer to her. Bit weird to lie about it.
