I wouldn't rush into starting another one. At least, I don't feel like playing continuously, but maybe playing every few months would be okay.

P.S. Where were you?

Guys, I have an idea.

Let's create a setting with, say, 20 roles: 12 town roles, 5 mafia roles, and 3 utility roles. But the game is played with, say, 11-12 players, and only 7 town roles, 3 mafia roles, and 1-2 utility roles are distributed. Players don't know which roles have been distributed and which haven't; they only know the distribution of players, but not the composition of the teams (the mafia, of course, knows their own, but doesn't know the town or the serial killer). Of course, through night actions and post-mortem analysis, you can guess who is in the game, but initially, it's completely unclear.
With this setup, you need to introduce several blockers, protectors, doctors, etc., into the setting from the start to reduce the likelihood of a situation where the town is left without proactive night actions and they just sit there doing nothing but investigations. The only thing is, I don't know which is more interesting: choosing one town blocker out of three available, or randomizing it, so that the game could have all three blockers or none at all. Of course, these won't be clones; roles of the same type will differ in abilities, passives, ultimates, descriptions in the newspaper, etc.

Dick, Janus, Wesker.

Good names.

When beauty wasn't leveled up.

Something like this. I tried to keep the roles themselves simpler, but still distinct from one another. I reworked an old Batman-themed Mafia idea. I really didn't like that, despite such a colossal gallery of awesome enemies, there were barely any of Bats' villains in that same Mafia game. Now it's fixed.
Since I decided to show off and use the characters' real names, this information might come in handy:

Jack Napier - Joker.
Harleen Quinzel - Harley Quinn.
Jonathan Crane - Scarecrow.
Hugo Strange - N/A
Pamela Isley - Poison Ivy.
Victor Fries - Mr. Freeze.
Ra's al Ghul - N/A
Matthew Hagen - Clayface.
Edward Nygma - Riddler.
Temple Fugate - Clock King.
Arnold Wesker - Ventriloquist.
Mary Louise Dahl - Baby Doll? I don't know how they adapted her into Russian.
Oswald Chesterfield Cobblepot - Penguin.
Jervis Tetch - Mad Hatter.
Kirk Langstrom - Man-Bat (no, it's not a joke, actually Man-Bat).
Maximilian Zeus - N/A
Garfield Lynns - Firefly.
Waylon "Morgan" Jones - Killer Croc.
Bane - N/A

Bruce Wayne - Batman.
Richard "Dick" Grayson - Nightwing, the first Robin.
Timothy "Tim" Drake - Robin, Red Robin, the second Robin (actually the third, but Jason Todd was skipped in DC Animated Universe).
Commissioner James Gordon - N/A
Barbara Gordon - Batgirl.
Alfred Pennyworth - N/A

Selina Kyle - Catwoman.

Harvey Dent - Two-Face.

Andrea Beaumont - Phantasm (alarm, spoiler for the feature film!).

The Mafia will have a hard time – it consumes too much. There are many defenses and isolations with blocks.
The Town will have a hard time – there are constant redirections and a lack of/falsification of evidence.

But overall, it looks interesting)
