Sat 2 PM Ravenswood Bluff 15 Seats
Free for the community. No passwords.
Signups scatter across Discord threads, DMs, and emails. You lose track of who's in, who's waitlisted, and who said they can't make it.
You invited fourteen. Eleven said yes. Three bail by lunchtime and you're at eight. A couple of no-shows changes the whole game.
The Imp bluffed as the Empath. The town executed the Slayer with 4 votes. Amazing game. Nobody wrote it down.
Pick a date and get a link. Drop it in your Discord, group chat, or anywhere. Players sign up with their email, no muss, no fuss, no passwords.
See who signed up, in order. Approve players, assign them to rooms, move people between games. When you're ready, hit publish and everyone gets notified.
Run your night. Afterward, the game story (script, narrative, photos of the grimoire) can be published from Blocktower. Every event becomes a record.
I run a monthly Blood on the Clocktower game for friends in Toronto. For a while, every event meant juggling messages in WhatsApp with an invitation system that didn't really do what I wanted. It worked, technically. It was also annoying every single time.
I'd already built Blocktower, a free storyteller toolkit for tracking vote counts, because I was always forgetting the number of votes required during the day.
What if an event tool and Blocktower talked to each other? Names flow from Slaydate to the Storyteller's phone, and stories flow back after the games. It's honestly a ridiculous idea. The audience is too narrow, the engineering too specific. No business case could be made for this, but I didn't need one. I built this for my own games.
Starting from one over-engineered solution, I built another. From the organizer's side, the experience is as simple as sharing a link to the event. Players sign up without creating an account. I approve, hit publish, everyone gets notified. After the games, the stories get published magically, in a dramatically over-the-top way.
It's free, and always will be for single-table events. No ads, no data collection beyond what's needed to run the event. While I built this for myself, I figured other organizers hit the same walls.
One link per event. Players sign up with just their name and email. No account creation, no passwords. Magic links handle the rest.
See who's signed up, assign players to rooms, move people between tables. All updating live. No refresh, no stale data.
Running one table? Rooms stay invisible. Running four? Each room gets its own waitlist, capacity, and description. Scales when needed.
If your Storytellers use Blocktower, they can connect it to your event. Rosters sync and game stories push back automatically.
Every game played at your event: script, narrative, grimoire, are preserved and viewable by attendees. Game nights become history.
Waitlist confirmation. Room assignment. Day-before reminders. Stories published. Players stay informed without a single manual message.
Vote tracking, discussion timers, nomination tracking, dead votes. The stuff that's easy to lose track of when you're focused on the game.
If your storytellers use it, they can connect it to a SLAYDATE event. Player rosters sync for rapid setup. After the games, stories and grimoire images push back to SLAYDATE.
The script, the story of what happened, the Storyteller's grimoire. Attendees get a link to relive it.
The Washerwoman pointed at the Librarian on day one, but nobody listened. By day three, the Imp had successfully bluffed as the Empath and the town executed the Mayor in a near-unanimous vote. Evil wins.
The Pit-Hag turned the Flowergirl into the Vigormortis on night 4. What followed was the wildest final day any of us had ever seen. Good wins (barely), one dead vote decided it.
Two Zombuul deaths faked. The Exorcist hit the wrong target three nights running. The Gossip killed the Pacifist, and Evil wins in a bloodbath.
The questions every Storyteller asks before they sign up.
Yes! Slaydate is completely free to use, and will always be free for people running a single game at a time. There are no ads, no marketing trackers, no email harvesting, nothing like that.
Send them your link, it’s easily available from your event. There’s no account creation required: they enter their email, click the link in their email and enter their name, and they’re on the waitlist.
Yes! You can have as many rooms as you like, each with their own waitlist and description. This is perfect for groups that have a beginners room and an experienced room, or just need to run more than one game at a time.
Nope. it’s 100% optional, but using it opens up some very fun possibilities.
