Town of Salem adalah game online yang mirip dengan Werewolf atau Mafia. Kamu dan pemain lain jadi warga kota, tapi ada beberapa yang jadi pembunuh. Setiap hari, kamu harus diskusi dan voting untuk menyingkirkan penjahat. Seru banget karena harus berpikir cepat dan membaca situasi. Cocok untuk anak usia 13 tahun ke atas. Game ini penuh dengan kebohongan dan manipulasi, jadi butuh kematangan emosi. Anak yang lebih kecil bisa bingung atau malah belajar cara berbohong dengan 'baik'. Pesan positifnya jelas: melatih logika, kerja sama, dan kemampuan debat. Anak belajar bahwa keputusan bersama bisa salah kalau tidak hati-hati. Tapi hati-hati, ada ancaman pembunuhan virtual. Meski tidak ada darah, konsep 'mati' dan 'dibunuh' bisa mengganggu anak sensitif. Tidak ada konten seksual atau kekerasan eksplisit. Bahasanya kadang kasar karena pemain bebas chat. Alkohol dan narkoba tidak muncul. Keberagaman karakter cukup baik, ada berbagai latar belakang. Kesimpulan: Rekomendasikan untuk remaja yang suka strategi dan diskusi. Tapi awasi interaksi online-nya, karena bisa ada bully atau kata-kata tidak pantas dari pemain lain.
