DEMONIC PANIC - BLOOD ON THE CLOCKTOWER - 42 - HERMITCRAFT SEASON 9 

i feel so bad for xisuma. first time he was just confused and everyone thought he was the demon. this time hes the town drunk and ends up even more confused.

Xiuma is so funny "This is a great time to tell you I know nothing"

“Voice sounds” is my favorite British slang for “information.”

Impulse actually being the mayor is such beautiful comedic irony

Hypno, talking to the poisoner and the drunk, "There's a poisoner or a drunk"

X being the most confused player the first time around.....to having the most confusing role the second....is wildly appropriate...lol

"Here's my defense: The classic 'I'm innocent'." lmao bdubs I was really surprised to hear Bdubs say he plays a lot of Town of Salem, and it really showed in how skillful he played it!

1:19:03 the Hermits all saying "Yay" and jumping in unison PROVES they all share the same brain cell, and it is hilarious

The Xisuma Existential Crisis when he realized everything he knew could be a lie 😂😂❤

DO and TCG are awesome, but lowkey this is my favourite game in Season 9. Simply because of the sheer joy I derive from seeing the Hermits engaging in interactions with one another.

impulse getting the mayor role had me LOL!!

1:08:30 "I would say there's a poisoner or drunk" -hypno said standing with the poisoner and the drunk 😂

Cleo’s little double take when they saw Cub 😂 tbh I didn’t even notice he shouldn’t have been there until people started laughing

I want X to get confusing roles every game, he is just hilarious

MORE (and drag Tango out of the Citadel)

ren: "to me it's almost a high level strat, to make yourself-" bdubs: "hamburgers" >:) 46:40

Keralis:oh no ZombieCleo:oh yeah This quote summarized the whole game

Oh God Xisuma can't catch a break 🤣

Keralis actually managed a genuine Sympathy for the Devil.

"they've given me sugar, and grain." is bdubs a hworse?

Absolutely love the small touches and simple visual upgrades from last time Cleo. The white chestplates for ghosts, the horn and the edittable signs makes it all feel more refined. Its also nice seeing a few of the hermits starting to pick up a little on game stratergy, joe especially stood out for me in that department but that comes unsurprisingly. Hopefully with a few more games in them they'll fully understand the rules and tactics, and will all be at the same level. Poor Keralis was so lost bless him, very much didn't grasp the game in the same way impulse did last time and I just think lack of knowledge really bit him in the butt. Though having an empath which can confirm a fortune teller and an undertaker as good is so so powerful and would be difficult to overcome at any skill level of this script. Overall this game was more predictable, but it definitely showed us that the hermits are starting to get into their groove and I can't wait to watch them evolve into pathological liars :)

Not gonna lie, every time I heard Cleo's horn summoning everyone I had war flashbacks to "COMING SOON TO OWN ON HOME VIDEO"

X as the drunk is perfect casting. The dropper knew what it was doing.

"I've decided that I... have toooo lie..." 😂 Oh, poor Xisuma, deception games are just not for him 😅

Love how both of these games have just been everyone going “oh poor X”

It would be funny to rename the White Leather tunics "bedsheets".

I love how much "co-op hang out and do things" this season has been, obviously all the builds and bases are amazing but what has really made this season has been all "in minecraft" games the Hermits have done together

"Unspooled into many flesh ribbons," has got to be the funniest description of being not alive I've ever heard

Y’all are gonna fry Xisuma’s brain.

I absolutely want more blood on the clock tower

I hope xisuma joins this game every time

47:18 Alright Cleo, I'm nominating you to be sued on the crime of being thirsty. Chat, Cleo was drinking an unspecified carbonated drink during in which people were talking, and just honestly I can't believe that. Like who just gets thirsty like that? No one, that's who. I rest my case.

Keralis with the quote of the year because of his delivery of it "This Game Is BROKEN!" @ 32:15

I know x is so confused and probably frustrated but he makes it so entertaining

"I don't know, his teeth maybe" OH MY GOD THAT SENT ME INTO A FULL ON FIT OMG

If you poison the Drunk, does the Drunk get correct information? XD

“Don’t joke in a court of law Keralis”- the one true judge, king of hermit craft, Zombiecleo

The Explantation for the fortune teller got replaced by a c

I feel bad for xisuma, getting the most confusing role in the script, and Keralis as the demon in his first game with more experienced players! Cleo could have given the evil team more of a chance had they pinged the mayor kill onto Joe, but still, great game!

Awesome second game! Cannot wait for a third! It was great to see Bdubs and Keralis join. I'm also so happy you decided to do the white ghost tunics, I know I suggested it last time but I'm sure others suggested it too and I found it VERY helpful and I had a much easier time following who was dead and who used their votes this time around.

Poor X. Going to be more confused than ever haha

2 minutes in and I can already see where this is going, lol Also, that horn is a really smart way to get everyone back together

I absolutely love watching you guys play BotC! Im always hype for hermit interaction, especially if it involves scheming. Joe and Gem were the real MVPs in my eyes. Joe was fantastic at pulling information together into correct conclusions, and Gem has a great social read. This was so fun to watch!!

Dear Joe, I got the “audience is now deaf” reference. We used to say it at the start of every movie!

Xisuma is so funny in this game

The moment X pulled the Drunk role I was like "Oh, this is NOT going to help him understand the game any better!" EDIT: Cleo's slight double-take when she turned around and Cub had just APPEARED. xDD

I wonder how long BOTC in hermitcraft will last. Would be really neat to see Bad Moon Rising and Sects & Violets played at some point. It'd be amazing if this lasts long enough for the hermits to dip their toes into the experimental character pool.

Oh man, getting Soldier as a fake alibi is so good . Just don't kill anyone night 2 or 3, claim you were shot at, easy town cred . (Still at the start, let's see how it goes) Edit Day 2: False has got to be 100% certain it's Ren and Keralis now. I can't believe they both voted on Bdubs; the most town player in the pool currently. Edit 2: End. That was extremely unfortunate for Keralis to get Imp his very first game. False getting info on Keralis night 0 was even more unlucky. Cleo if you happen to read this, if I could make a small suggestion? Would it be possible to include chapters so the viewers could kinda play along without knowing the role information? Like I'd love if I could just see the day phases. (There's probably a bunch of RU-vid reasons why that's not ideal, which is fine and totally cool) Final words, I love this game and social deduction games in general. I live watching your videos on them and I love watching the hermits play. You are doing such an amazing job.

I've been giving comments to each D.O. hermit ep. to offer to the algorithm, but Clocktower is also a complex and fascinating game that deserves comments too. Well done, Cleo. @};-

Had to be early for the next BotC episode. I love these games, can't wait for more.

X going through an existential crisis was awesome xdddd

37:29 Cleo cackling like a witch makes me smile >:)

I think there should be a special role, just for Xisuma, called The Void. Where no matter what information he gets, it's wrong, but he at least KNOWS it's wrong, and has to put together the correct information in reverse (eg "I was told that this person MUST be evil, which means they must NOT be evil"). It would do nothing but confuse the poor man and be incredibly hilarious to watch. (This is a joke; I feel sorry for the poor man getting the drunk role on his second game, but it is. Highly entertaining.)

I love this, such a great idea! I was a bit confused about why Xisuma was so upset about being made the drunk, but then I went back and watch the previous game which I had missed. That poor guy, they need a hug and a cup of coco!

oh!! I haven't watched cleo in a bit, I check back to catch up and see she's playing one of my favorite games of all time. Was not expecting BotC on hermitcraft!

man i am more excited to watch this than decked out. not sure what i found more funny, xisuma not only having the least experience but getting 1 of the more complicated roles or how impulse went from being the leader of demons to leader of the town

Bdudbs quiet confusion during n2 had me rolling

1:11:03 I LOVE this moment because it reads so much like X just having a full blown existential crisis it's so good.

There was so much improvement in game play and strategy between the last game, I’m so excited to see what the next one will bring. I also hope next time Xisuma can have a little more luck with roles, while I absolutely love his cluelessness I’m sure he’ll enjoy the game even more when he isn’t so overwhelmed.

This was so much fun to watch! X getting the drunk and Keralis being new made the outcome even more unpredictable and interesting to watch ^^ I really hope there will be more rounds of it!

Cleo, i am obsessed with this game! It’s very interesting seeing how all the hermits interact with each other in their own respective roles and these types of games in general is fun. Would love to see more of it in the future (:

This is really fun. Cub not making it in time was sad, he is a fun guy to have in these games. Keep these coming! Joe Hills getting to fully participate was also nice! Would be nice to get the Spoon: Mumbo to join. Or some chaos in Scar/Grian. But otherwise, please keep these coming! Bdubs with Empath really made this game a bit too easy especially since it was Keralis's first game. :( Poor Keralis, he didn't stand a chance.

YAYY BLOOD ON THE CLOCKTOWER!!!! Im loving these longer uploads for botc

I cackled like a madman when X drew washerwoman. Poor X. I haven't even finished the video yet and I know it's gonna be chaos.

At 46:42, listen out for Bdubs. Trust me. You won't regret it.

Finished the video and I just wanna say Cleo, this was an excellent addition to HC this season. With all the decked out videos, this is such a delightful change of pace! A+ Content! Ms Cleo!

Xisuma was much more confident this game! He was mostly confidently _wrong..._ but, yeah. :P Him hitting everybody with essentially "I know that I know nothing" near the end was top notch. Also the excitement of Joe, Bdubs, and False getting together in the library and figuring things out! And then gem bringing false in!

This was just as much fun to watch the second time! I'm just sad Tango couldn't make it again. It just means there'll have to be more games though!

You need to organize more of these. They are so fun! Also, Joe is such a pro at this game!

I didn't notice this when I watched Joe's perspective, but I love how you call out executing Ren to joe when he gets his role.

i love seeing the hermits play this! makes for so many fun interactions and puts their acting and investigative skills to use

Setting this up on Hermitcraft was such a great idea, Cleo, thank you!

Keralis having an existential crisis over who to kill and feeling really bad about it was hilarious

Seeing the hermits play blood on the clocktower has made me want to play it with my friends :)

Really enjoying the series so far. I did feel that this game was pretty stacked with strong info roles, and with groups constantly having 3+ people the evil team really had no chance.

Thank you so much for recording and releasing this content! :D The perspective of the game master is the absolute most fun to watch

This is pretty much Town Of Salem + Minecraft, and since they are my two favourite games, I love it.

I truly love this season. I love the well thought out high effort mini games.

I already watch joe and false perspective and now i just finished this video. We need more of this Hermits Interaction. The game is so Good. More Round Cleo❤️❤️❤️

I feel like the evil team's biggest issue was that Ren kept avoiding being in conversations alone with Keralis. If they'd been able to coordinate Bdubs being poisoned and Joe dying in the same night, that could have swung the game well into the evil team's favour. Ren learning the demon bluffs might have made him less suss as well. It was a shame about your slip-up with letting the Mayor die - bouncing that to Joe would probably have been the best move, but there's so much to keep track of as the Storyteller that it's easy to miss those things in the moment. Impulse was correct at the end though - Keralis only would have needed to get five votes on a nomination to save himself, because the tie would have meant no-one was executed. Having Poisoner and Drunk in the same game is pretty harsh on the good team though. Maybe next game have neither - they'll be so paranoid about them being in the game they'll probably invent them 😅 I wonder if maybe it would be worth having some kind of physical representation with blocks of the townfolk/outsider/minion/demon count? The outsider count can be really important for working out if there's a drunk, but the hermits seemed to forget that. Also, maybe just rig the dropper for X's pick next game 😂

I love these sessions so much, I know it must be a challenge to schedule and organize so many people but thank you for doing these; they absolutely make my day!

Hey Cleo, when are you going to tell the players that that "Hot Tub" is actually the wash tub, and they are sitting in dirty water? 🤣

Town having 4 good info roles is a bit rough for the evil team, especially since they are new to botc. Maybe having a non-info role would've been a more balanced script. I'm unsure how ready they are for sects and violets, X's brain will definitely melt lmao, but i'm excited to see it next week!

this was fun to watch. I subscribed :) cant wait for the next "blood on the clocktower" episode.

i am dying laughing at Keralis as the imp, perfection

These videos are so great, i get so invested in the game! I think what keralis should've done was used his first day to lie and try and confirm rendog as a good player, and then sacrificed himself on the second night. A single Imp who everyone trusts with a "dead townsfolk" confusing all the other players sounds like a winning strategy.

Gem calling on day two that Ren and Keralis are the bad guys while being a role that gets zero information is so impressive,, how is she so good at the game?

I'm pretty sure you know, but being drunk or poisoned doesn't always mean they get wrong information; it means they MIGHT get wrong information (depending on what the storyteller thinks leads to the most exciting and competitive game). It's important because the storyteller should give the drunk the least useful information (poor Xisuma), which may even be correct if it keeps the drunk from finding out their true role or sabotages the good team when they are winning. Also I feel like giving Xisuma washerwoman info that matches Keralis' bluffs might have been the best sabotage to the good team lmao Edit: As you put on screen when Impulse died, killing Joe probably would have been the best move, so nobody knew they got a baddie. Gonna stop my backseat gaming now, I just love this game!

I LOVE this game! Please keep gathering the hermits to play!

These are great. The players, mostly, have no idea how the game works, and subsequently Cleo has to tell them way more info/details than they should normally know. That said, you can already see that the people starting to get how it works. I would love to see a demon other than the Imp next time.

Grian asking jevin why he is the way he is, is quite ironic.

Spoilers: Very good game! Poor Keralis was so confused, and False getting between him and Ren really hurt. Wasn’t much that could be done but do agree with what you said that pinging off impulse into Joe or someone might have created confusion and stopped additional info that got Keralis killed. Also because of False I don’t think it would have mattered, but if Xisuma saw Ren as a demon bluff it may have helped Ren if he had known what those were, because he could have just said “yup that’s me”. Would have confused Xisuma even more though sadly haha.

Cleo! I haven’t finished the video yet, but I just want to thank you for the time you put into this! For me this is the most joy an entertainment I have had watching hermit craft, I watched the last video 4 times from different perspectives and I’m loving watching these video too! I hope you run one or two more of these games! Thank you 😊

oh man this episode. im really happy x gave it another go, its a shame he was the drunk this time around though. impulse...hilarious. i hope u host this game more, its so much fun to watch. hire zed to make some hidey holes to spy on everyone from :)

It’d be soo fun if the hermits got comfortable enough with the game that Cleo can start introducing the more funky roles like legion or atheist : D

44:57 I suggest also drinking an invisibility potion and wear a head. That way you have a floating ghost.

3:04 horse cleo 46:46 hamburger

I want to see the chaos that would be grian playing

hey! im a more experienced clocktower storyteller and dont know if you read the comments much, but i've been loving the series so far. one thing id say that might help your players a bit - unintuitively, giving players concrete advice and strategies often isn't all that helpful, because it can make them feel like they're restricted into certain playstyles. besides that, everything has been great (i especially love the way you peer into private conversations, it is very funny) edit: also, if you're trying to really hone your ability as a storyteller, it's a great idea to choose the drunk *after* everyone has drawn their role. that way, you can more precisely control the misinformation of the game

I absolutely love the blood on the clock tower games. Between this and DO, we're all getting spoiled for content
