Among us is a survival and cooperation game for PC in which they participate in 4 a 10 players.
Launched in 2018, This online multiplayer game takes place in a spaceship where one to three players are randomly selected as imposters, who have the mission to kill the other members.
If imposters kill enough players, win. If the crew works together and they discover the impostor (avoiding being killed), win.
An impostor among us
Although Among Us is simple enough for most people to play it, is deeply misleading. The secret is that imposters can go unnoticed if they convince other players that they are among the good guys..
This has its own set of cool psychological tricks: If the imposter is perceived as a trustworthy person, I could go unnoticed and end up winning the game. There are even consequences for manipulating the perception of other players; as an example, when an innocent partner generates mistrust and is perceived as an imposter.
It's hard to explain what exactly the game is about, but the premise is simple: play and find out who the impostor is. Among Us plays as a murder mystery, but with a more cheerful tone than you might expect.
On one side, the impostor will try to kill the crew, until I finish with all of them to win the game. On the other hand, the crew must complete a series of tasks throughout the game, but always with the mission of finding the “assassin” and kick it out.
Imposters have a tamper feature that enables them to tamper with and damage a ship's systems with crew. Depending on the map it is played on, Imposters can use Reactor, Lights, Oxygen, Communications and seismic stabilizers.
This is a great utility for imposters, since it allows them to easily kill their companions without being caught.
During each round, which usually lasts between 10 Y 15 minutes, players will be able to ask themselves a series of questions to catch the imposter. This is the fun part, since this is where you see how well the player (s) who have been selected as imposters lie.
According to its creators, Among Us was originally conceived as a party game for PC. Right now it is played online on the computer and allows you to customize the color of your player. In addition, a text chat is added and it can be played with other Android and iOS users.
