Among Us is an engaging game for groups of four to ten players. Your mission is to identify the Impostors hiding in disguise among the crew members. In every match, the Impostors seek to sabotage the ship and quietly eliminate Crewmates without revealing their identities. Alongside hunting for Impostors, you must also complete various tasks to ensure the ship continues to function properly.
In Among Us, players are divided into two main factions: Crewmates and Impostors. Each faction has its own roles and objectives. Crewmates must work together to complete all tasks and identify the Impostors, while Impostors must eliminate Crewmates without getting caught.
Crewmates
Crewmates usually make up the majority of the players in a match. Their task is to perform maintenance duties on the ship, such as fixing wiring, emptying the trash, or swiping ID cards. If they discover a fallen Crewmate or suspect an Impostor is on board, members can call a meeting to discuss and vote to eject someone from the ship. However, a wrong decision could bring the Impostor closer to victory.
When eliminated by an Impostor, a Crewmate becomes a Ghost. Although they no longer participate in voting like the living players, Ghosts can still support their team by moving through objects, monitoring security cameras, and completing remaining tasks.
Impostors
Impostors pose as Crewmates with the secret goal of eliminating each member without detection. They can blend into the group, pretend to perform tasks, and offer explanations to conceal their true identities. Additionally, Impostors can sabotage ship systems such as the lights, ventilation, or oxygen supply. Impostors win when their numbers equal those of the remaining Crewmates or when they successfully execute a critical sabotage, such as causing an oxygen system failure that the Crewmates fail to fix in time.
Crewmates must travel to various locations to complete their tasks.
