Blood On The Clocktower VS One Night Ultimate Werewolf VS Feed The Kraken - BUY THIS, NOT THAT

During the festive season, we played three social deduction games back-to-back: Blood on the Clock Tower, One Night Ultimate Werewolf, and Feed the Kraken.

The real question is which one should you buy, and what are you trying to get out of a social deduction experience?
