Among Us is a thrilling space detective where astronauts are locked on a spaceship together with a killer and have to find out who it is before they murder everyone. With real players in the game, it’s gong to be truly exciting and challenging! Whether you get the role of a crewmate or the impostor, you’ll have to use your best skills to reach your goal, and it’s not going to be easy. So, let’s take off and see where it gets us!
The whole thing starts with distributing the roles between the players. It’s done randomly, but chances are high you’ll start out with the role of a crewmate. Crewmates are peaceful, they do various tasks around the ship and make sure it reaches its destination safely. However, once in a while you will also be the Impostor. This guy is much more cunning and interesting to play as. His objective is to sneak around pretending to be just another crewmate and kill the astronauts one by one without drawing any suspicions. So, let the fun begin!
Once the roles are assigned, everyone finds themselves on the ship that consists of various locations. Players can walk around it, explore the ship, interact with its various systems and each other and also talk via a built-in chat. Each of the crewmates will receive a list of tasks they have to complete. The tasks range from vital and important (like replacing fuel in the engine or monitor the work of the air generator) to downright silly (like watering the flower in the hall – well, having a piece of your home planet onboard is a comfort after all). In the same way, the Impostor can mess with all these mechanisms and gadgets to stall the spaceship and make everyone scurry around trying to fix it. That’s the best moment for them to make their move!
Impostors are sneaky and treacherous. They track those who walk on their own and follow them to remote part of the ship to stick a knife into their backs. That’s where the poor guy remains lying until someone stumbles upon his dead body. Then the most interesting thing begins – a meeting is called. Crewmates discuss their suspicions pointing fingers at each other. Very often, it turns into a total mess, and you have to keep your head cool if you want to find a grain of reason in this ruckus. Or, on the contrary, mislead everyone into voting against someone innocent. Whatever role befalls you, see if you can ace it and win in Among Us!
