No, the werewolves don't know who each other are. Only the evil wizard knows who all the werewolves are.

The game has to have high numbers of villagers, the higher the better. The best chance for the innocents to win is very early, by the good wizard finding the evil wizard in the first three Nights/Days (very unlikely as far as I can tell). The werewolf number would increase drastically at first, but with each new werewolf, the good wizard's chance of scrying an actual werewolf increases out of sheer odds.

It would be interesting to see the nature of the discussions in such a game. I would, of course, be interested in modding such a game if there were enough people willing to try it out just for kicks.

I imagine that the sheer terror/excitement level would be an interesting phenomenon amongst the innocents, with such thinking as "we really, really have to do our best to try and make as sure as we can to lynch a werewolf. None of this "okay to lynch an ungifted innocent" stuff.

So the energy level would likely be pretty high. ... especially as there begins to be four, then five, then six werewolves. Which I kinda like.
