Revac: A Social Deduction Reasoning Agent

2026-04-21 · Mihir Shriniwas Arya, Avinash Anish, Aditya Ranjan arxiv

Social deduction games such as Mafia present a unique AI challenge: players must reason under uncertainty, interpret incomplete and intentionally misleading information, evaluate human-like communication, and make strategic elimination decisions. Unlike deterministic board games, success in Mafia depends not on perfect information or brute-force search, but on inference, memory, and adaptability in the presence of deception. This work presents the design and evaluation of Revac-8, an AI agent developed for the Social Deduction track of the MindGames Arena competition, where it achieved first place. The final agent evolved from a simple two-stage reasoning system into a multi-module architecture that integrates memory-based player profiling, social-graph analysis of accusations and defenses, and dynamic tone selection for communication. These results highlight the importance of structured memory and adaptive communication for achieving strong performance in high-stakes social environments.

MafiaScope: Non-Invasive, Time-Resolved Belief Probing for LLM Agents in Social Deduction Games

An LLM agent's public behaviour reveals little about its social reasoning: an agent that votes correctly may be guessing, and an agent that lies well leaves no trace of what it actually believes. We present MafiaScope, a…
