About Among Us
Social deduction in space. The crew works through a list of tasks around the ship while an impostor moves among them, and the whole game turns on who was seen where, and when.
The tasks are simple on purpose. The real game is the conversation after a body turns up, when everybody explains where they were and somebody's account does not hold. Play it straight as a crewmate or play it crooked as the impostor. It plays at 800 by 600 on a phone or a desktop.
How to play
- Find out whether you are a crewmate or the impostor.
- Work through your tasks around the ship as a crewmate.
- Report a body when you find one.
- Argue your case in the discussion and vote.

Tips
- Remember who you saw and where. A specific account survives a discussion that a vague one does not.
- As the impostor, stand near a task and do nothing. Being visible is a better alibi than being absent.
