🔥 What is Among Us?

Among Us is a multiplayer social deduction game that took the gaming world by storm in 2020. Developed by InnerSloth, this space-themed party game puts players in the roles of crewmates completing tasks aboard a spacecraft – but some players are secretly impostors bent on sabotaging the mission and eliminating the crew.

Gameplay

Players are randomly assigned roles as either crewmates or impostors at the start of each round. Crewmates must complete various mini-games and tasks while trying to identify the impostors among them. Meanwhile, impostors attempt to blend in while secretly sabotaging systems and eliminating crewmates without getting caught.

When a body is discovered or an emergency meeting is called, all players gather to discuss suspicious behavior and vote on who they think the impostor might be. This creates intense moments of debate, accusation, and deception as players try to convince others of their innocence or catch others in lies.
