Among Us

Among Us is a social deduction game created by Innersloth and released in June 2018 for iOS and Android devices. The game is based on the party game Mafia and the science fiction horror film The Thing. Among Us is a game that was developed by Night School Studio. It was released on September 18, 2018 for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC, and the price for the game is $29.99 USD.

Gameplay

In Among Us, players take on two roles, Crewmates and Impostors, with a predetermined number of Impostors. The goal of Crewmates is to identify the Impostors, eliminate them, and complete tasks around the map; the goal of Impostors is to covertly sabotage before they complete all of their tasks. A crew member can be voted out if the majority of players agree, and any participant can start this process by summoning an emergency meeting—unless a crisis is occurring—or by discovering and reporting a deceased member. Crewmates win if all Impostors are ejected or all tasks are completed, whereas Impostors win if there is an equal number of Impostors and Crewmates, or if a critical sabotage goes unresolved.

Graphics

Set in an interstellar environment, the game assigns participants to one of two parts, with the majority assuming the role of Crewmates and a select few designated as Impostors. It showcases whimsical, cartoon-style visuals, and the design of the game's Airship map draws inspiration from "Infiltrating the Airship," another title developed by Innersloth.

Replayability

The game features several maps, including The Skeld, MIRA HQ, Polus and The Airship. The Skeld, the original map, features different challenges each game. The Airship's design is based on Infiltrating the Airship, another Innersloth game.
