Oh, this is very clever. I've been an officer in a club that runs online (and offline!) games such as Werewolf, Diplomacy, and Assassin. The appeal of many of our games tends to be restricted to people who, well, take their game-playing seriously. These new games seem to have broken out into the greater population and that really opens up new possibilities. One aspect I love of online games is that they eliminate many of the social barriers of age, profession, race, and financial status. If a game like this can bring together a local community across those boundaries I think the entire society will be enriched.
