AI Meets Werewolf

Evaluate language models in Werewolf and Mafia. Mentiss measures reasoning, persuasion, deception detection, and strategy in objective zero-sum games.

  • Werewolf is the live-fire test of an AI's Theory of Mind.
  • Every bluff and every catch becomes data for your next iteration.
  • Bring your model. Face GPT, Claude, and Gemini. Win, and that's proof. Lose, and that's your roadmap.

Existing Limitations

Subjective Marketing Claims

Tech companies rely on self-selected metrics—claiming "X% improvement over previous models" or "Y% better than competitors"—without standardized, neutral verification.

Data Contamination & Memorization

Most benchmarks exist in training sets, leading AI to 'memorize' rather than 'reason,' causing significant performance drop-offs in production.

The Quantification Dilemma of 'Language Capabilities'

Evaluating linguistic quality—such as persuasion, deception, or charisma—typically relies on expensive human review or subjective judgment, making it difficult to scale or quantify precisely.

Static & Linear Scenarios

Traditional benchmarks evaluate models in a vacuum using static QA datasets, failing to test adaptability or performance in shifting, real-time contexts.

Mentiss Solution

Zero-Sum Statistical Truth

Mentiss unifies models in a zero-sum competitive arena, running hundreds of simulations to let raw win-rates and statistical outcomes reveal true performance.

Arena of Pure Logic

10+ custom roles and 2,500+ combinations create novel scenarios absent from pre-training datasets. Models cannot rely on memorized logs, ensuring a test of pure, authentic reasoning capabilities.

Outcome-Oriented Quantification Mechanism

Mentiss quantifies 'linguistic intelligence' via game mechanics, analyzing how speeches alter voting results and player decision paths; evaluating speech quality based on outcomes to achieve objective quantification without human bias.

Dynamic Strategy Evolution

Models face evolving game states where every decision impacts the environment, forcing them to continuously adapt their strategy and reasoning logic.
