This is compared to the “Murderer in the dark” you may have played this game in your childhood.
It is also rapidly famous among peoples due to its multiplayer factor and due it’s pretty and pleasant external (Space) and internal (Spaceship) theme.
I am also a streamer of among us but the most interesting thing in this game, in my opinion, is that “The Mystery Solving” after killing anyone by an imposter and accusing each other to find a solution that “who killed”.
Also, it has a restriction for people below 10 years because this game uses your brain and tests you mentally and emotionally as well, so it is not playable for everybody. And people above 10 to 12 years can easily play and enjoy this game in their free time and anytime they want to play.
You can play this game with your friends, family, privately and publicly. Also, it has a limit of playing 10 players at a time in the same room/area in the game.
It has some more logical features and concepts for users to increase user’s guessing and thinking at a very critical stage and gives a meeting feature to users to discuss imposters and vote for anyone as you want according to your thinking.
It is the same as other social deduction games like Murderous Pursuits, Werewolf online, Town of Salem and Undercover^^ online etc.
How to Play the Among us game
If we talk about it in the game’s language then it would be that alien spaceship or that planet base of the users of this game. Each player has given a title named crewmate and some crewmates named imposters. We can make up to 3 imposters with 10 playing crewmates. We can reduce the number of imposters as well. It totally depends upon the creator of the room/playing area.
Like if we choose 4 crewmates to play then we can create only 1 imposter for the game. And if we want to increase the number of imposters to 2 then the crewmates would be up to 7 to 9. And if we want 3 imposters in the game than the minimum crewmates would be 9 or 10.
Crewmates and Imposter
Now let me explain about the crewmates and the imposters, what is the actual meaning and purpose of these characters of among us. Firstly the Crewmates: The Crewmates are the main characters of the game and they are the playable characters. They are the main victims of the Impostors and will team up with each other to find out who the Imposter actually is. They make a team and find out the imposter altogether for their victory. When the game starts you are advised whether you are a crew member or an imposter. Crewmates are tasked with completing tasks. These tasks help you in the game e.g. cleaning air conditioning ducts whereas imposters create havoc on the spaceship and seek out victims to kill.
When a dead body is found you can arrange an emergency meeting to find the imposter and in the meeting, there is a small vote out session so in the session we can eliminate any player if we think that he is imposter the killer.
When the game is about to start the imposters are not shown to every crewmate on their screens. So that they cannot recognize who the imposter is. Only the imposter knows that it is an imposter.
We can also talk on the screen with other players and we can make a perfect decision to eliminate any player. The basic thing is that if we are crew member we need to find the imposter. If we are an imposter we need to kill the crewmates and the best part of the game is that we always pretend like a crewmate but actually we are the killer. So don’t let others know that you are the killer. This is the way you won the game. It’s easy but a little tricky.
