About Among Us

A party game's quality often depends on its rules; simpler rules lead to more enjoyment. In Among Us, players quickly grasp the gameplay after just a few rounds. Movement is intuitive and well-paced, with essential tasks clearly marked. Icons help players understand their options and objectives. It's an engaging activity for solo or group play, offering opportunities to connect with new people.

How to Play

Among Us is a 2D party game where crewmates work alongside an impostor using the keyboard and mouse.

Controls

• W/Up Arrow - Move Up
• S/Down Arrow - Move Down
• A/Left Arrow - Move Left
• D/Right Arrow - Move Right

Icons in the bottom right corner of the screen indicate available actions, which you can select with the cursor and execute with the Left Mouse Button. As the impostor, your goal is to eliminate all other crewmates without detection. Being voted out results in ejection and a loss.

The impostor has several actions: Report, Sabotage, Vent, and Kill. Report allows you to call a meeting to shift blame. Sabotage disrupts crewmates' task progress. Vent enables unseen movement across the map. Kill allows you to eliminate a crewmate when in range, with a cooldown period.

Eliminating all crewmates results in victory. Between games, you can adjust settings like speed, cooldowns, and appearance.

Tips and Tricks

Being an effective impostor requires stealth and strategic planning. Target isolated crewmates and have a quick escape route via open areas or vents. Quick reaction is crucial if you are observed, allowing you to act before being reported.
