Werewolf is a game very much like Mafia, but played with a supernatural enemy (werewolves) instead of organized crime. Otherwise, it is largely similar; the role names tend to vary: Villager instead of Townie, Seer instead of Cop, etc.
As the person who came up with the idea of "Werewolf", let me note that I intended it to be the same game as Mafia, rule-wise. I only changed the role names. I guess that makes it a Theme Game in the sense used on this wiki, but in the "fictional theme" sense, not the game-mechanics sense.
