About the game
Among Us is a cutely animated, online game of murder and mayhem aboard a spaceship.
In a similar theme to Werewolves, there are 2 groups on the spaceship – “crew” and “imposters” (up to 10 players). It is the task of the imposters to murder all members of the crew and sabotage the ship without being caught and thrown out of the airlock by the crew.
The job of the crew is to perform maintenance tasks on the ship and hopefully avoid being murdered by imposters.
When a dead body is found on the ship, a meeting is called and the crew must vote to evict a suspect. If the crew successfully identifies the imposter, they win. If they pick the wrong person, they continue on with their ship maintenance tasks with the imposter still in their ranks, murdering and sabotaging the ship.
Can the imposter/s get away with murdering the entire crew and win control of the spaceship?

How to play remotely with friends:
Select a “host” who creates the game and sends the invite code to other players to join the room. You can play with other random players also, but playing with friends is more enjoyable.
Playing with 10 people is also more enjoyable than just 4, as it adds more intrigue and makes the game a little longer.
Playing the game over voicechat or videochat adds another element to the game that is missing in the purely online version of the game. It gives players the ability to bluff, accuse and rally support from other players to vote someone off. We would highly recommend using voice or video chat to play Among Us.
