Avalon is my favorite game in this genre (5-10 players). 5 rounds of choosing people to go out on quests. Players either pick succeed or fail in secret, and if one fail card is picked, the quest fails. Good players can only pick succeed, but evil players can pick either, and the idea is to weed out who is sabatoging the missions. What makes it so interesting to me are the roles. Some players have knowledge of the other players, for example, all evil players know who the other evil players are, but the good players are going in blind. Except Merlin, who knows the identities of the evil players, but of course may not be trusted by their own team. Doesn't help that one of the evil players can guess if they lose who Merlin is, and if correct, their team wins. It's been a while since I've played, but a new big box release came out last year including all released content and some extras. That would be the one to pick up.
