Danny Bateman Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 Anybody play it? Free on mobile, 5 bucks on PC. Pretty fun little party game. Me and my brother have been playing with his friends and it's a blast. Quote Link to comment
Cdog923 Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 It's a much, much, much better game to play with friends in a Discord chat. Also, pretty fun to watch on Twitch, too. 1 Quote Link to comment

Among Us[c] is an online multiplayer social deduction game, developed and published by American[2] game studio InnerSloth and released on June 15, 2018. The game takes place in a space-themed setting where players each take on one of two roles, most being Crewmates, and a predetermined number being Impostors. The goal for the Crewmates is to identify the Impostors, eliminate them, and complete tasks around the map; the Impostors' goal is to covertly sabotage and kill the Crewmates before they complete all their tasks. Through a plurality vote, players believed to be Impostors may be removed from the game. If all Impostors are eliminated or all tasks are completed, the Crewmates win; if there are an equal number of Impostors and Crewmates, or if a critical sabotage goes unresolved, the Impostors win. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Among_Us 1 Quote Link to comment

The Crewmembers have to complete a number of tasks throughout the map, while the Imposters have to kill the Crewmembers. If a body is found, all players are called into a meeting to discuss who they think the Imposters are, and can vote out someone whom they think is an Imposter. For the Crewmembers to win, they have to either complete all their tasks or find and vote all the Imposters out before the Imposters kill all the Crewmembers.
