Social deduction games revolve around players acting out roles and unveiling secret identities within a group. Your task is to develop a game that embodies this concept while integrating mechanics that encourage communication, and problem solving. 

Popular examples of social deduction games are Among Us, Mafia, and Werewolf.

The game must promote teamwork and collaboration alongside social deduction mechanics such as hidden roles, bluffing, or secret traitors.
