Among Us: How to Play?

        You may find this game boring if they hadn’t added some twist in the game. It’s a game of teamwork and betrayal. There is a total of 10 players in the spaceship. Players are assigned the role of either Crewmates or Impostor. The 10 players can join via online or local WiFi. The minimum player required to play this game is 4 while maximum 10 players can play this game together. Believe me, it’s fun to play when you play with 10 players and all are from your group.

        The controls and graphics are primitive as compared to other online multiplayer games but the game nail down when it comes to gameplay. The control is of two types: Joystick and Touch.

        You can play with Public or Private using a button on your device screen. The game can be played by hosting our own room or joining a Public or Private Room created by others.

        Once you enter the game, you have assigned a role as a Crewmate or an Impostor. If you are a Crewmate, you have to fill the taskbar as soon as possible to win. You can win by discovering the impostor from 10 players playing along with you. You can call emergency meetings and report dead bodies and discuss “Who might be Impostor” and “on whom you’re suspicious.”  You can vote them out who and win if they are a real Impostor. You might lose one of your crewmates if everyone votes and eliminates an innocent crewmate.

Role Of Crewmate

        If you have assigned the role of an Impostor, your objective is to kill off the crew to win. Impostors have to blend in with crew and pretend to run tasks. Impostors pretend as to be one of the crewmates but whenever get chance of being alone with other crewmate, kill them. Impostors can use vents to hide and sabotage the compartments. Also, they can close the doors and trap their victims.

Role Of Impostor

        Once someone find a dead body, they can report or call an emergency meeting. Discuss the suspicious activity from the chat section with other crewmates and vote for who you think as an impostor. If you’re an impostor, you can vote too and can play politics by convincing others that some innocent player is under your suspicion. That one player with highest votes at the end of discussion will be thrown out of the spaceship and will become ghost if they are not an Impostor. If the impostor is thrown out, then the game ends, and crewmates won. But, if the impostor kills the crewmates and only one crewmate left at the end the impostor wins.

        You can also practice the game in Freeplay mode.

        Basically, this game is all about politics and trust. You have to make everyone believe in you and then you have to betray the to win. A fun gameplay and concept makes this game very interesting, exciting and fun to play.

Impostor Meaning:

                As per Google Translate the word to word meaning of impostor is “a person who pretends to be someone else in order to deceive others: He felt like an impostor among all those intelligent people, as if he had no right to be there.”

Impostor kills Crewmate

                Impostors pretends to be one of the crewmate and gradually betrays everyone by killing them off one by one. Being an impostor in Among Us is fun because then you will know how difficult it is to convince and persuade everyone. Our politicians can do that effortlessly.

Conclusion: The Among Us game provides congenial gameplay and Among Us, maps are very interesting too. Though the graphics are low, it wins when comes to user experience. You can talk with other players by installing Discord on your devices. The Impostor meaning is explained here beautifully by using politicians’ example.
