Amid Us [c] is a 2018 online multiplayer social deduction game developed and published by American game studio Innersloth. The game was inspired by the political party game Mafia and the science fiction horror film The Affair. The game allows for cross-platform play, first existence released on iOS and Android devices in June 2018 and on Windows afterwards that year in November. The game was then ported to the Nintendo Switch in Dec 2020, and on the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S in December 2021. While the game was initially released in 2018 to little mainstream attention, it received a massive influx of popularity in 2020 due to many well-known Twitch streamers and YouTubers playing it. A dissever VR version of the game, Among Us VR, will be released for Quest 2, SteamVR, and PlayStation VR, developed by Schell Games.

Among Us takes place in a infinite-themed setting where players look like colorful armless cartoon astronauts; nevertheless, since the release of "The Skeld" spaceship, 3 other maps accept been added in afterwards years: the skyscraper "MIRA HQ", the "Polus" planetary station, and "The Airship" (based on Infiltrating the Airship from the Henry Stickmin series, also adult past Innersloth). Each player takes on 1 of two roles—nigh are Crewmates, merely a small number play Impostors—which does not alter their appearance.[d] The goal of the Crewmates is to either place and vote out the Impostors, or to complete all the tasks around the map; the goal of the Impostors is to covertly sabotage the mission either by killing the Crewmates before they complete all their tasks or by triggering a disaster that is not resolved in fourth dimension.

Gameplay

A white-suited astronaut named "Buddy" (the player) stands in front of an unnamed blue-suited corpse. The room they are in is labeled "Admin". In the hallway, slightly obscured by the sight line mechanic, is a pink-suited astronaut named "Chum". In the upper-left corner of the player's screen, there is a fake list of tasks as well as the player's goal: to kill all Crewmates. The player also has the option to Use, Report, Sabotage, and Kill. As the player has just killed, the button is on cooldown and faded.

In this gameplay screenshot of the original map, The Skeld, the white Impostor has just killed the blue Crewmate in the centrally located Admin room. Because of the vision mechanic for Among Usa, the pink actor is partially obscured in the white player's field of vision. Whatsoever role player can report the expressionless body and trigger a coming together.

Amidst Us is a multiplayer game for four to fifteen players (previously 4 to ten players), although recommended for at least v.[11] Up to 3 players are randomly[12] and secretly called to be the Impostor(southward) each round. As of 2021, a round can take place on one of iv maps: a spaceship called "The Skeld"; a headquarters edifice called "MIRA HQ"; a planet base chosen "Polus";[13] or an airship based on Innersloth'due south Henry Stickmin series called "The Airship".[14] [fifteen]

The Impostor(s) win(south) one of two ways: either by killing about of the crew (to the point that they're equal in number) or by sabotaging a disquisitional system on the map (provided the Crewmates don't resolve it in time). The Crewmates likewise can win 1 of two ways: either by completing all tasks or by identifying and ejecting all Impostors.[13] Games tin also finish by players quitting the friction match if doing so fulfills any win status (if a Crewmate quits the game, their tasks are automatically considered completed).[sixteen] [17] [eighteen]

At the start of the game, Crewmates are assigned "tasks" to complete around the map (in the form of minigames, minipuzzles, and simple toggles), generally consisting of maintenance work on vital systems such as fixing wires and downloading information.[19] Impostors are given a fake list of suggested tasks to blend in with Crewmates. Yet, they cannot legitimately perform tasks and can but pretend to be doing whatsoever of the tasks on the transport. Impostors, nonetheless, can demolition vital systems (such as The Skeld's oxygen supply), shut the doors to rooms, quickly and covertly travel through the ventilation system (commonly referred to every bit "venting"), and kill Crewmates when standing near them. To help the Crewmates identify Impostors, there are various surveillance systems on each map, such as security cameras and an admin system on The Skeld,[xx] a doorlog organization with sensors in MIRA HQ,[21] and a vitals indicator in Polus.[13] Crewmates may too ostend their identity through "visual tasks" (tasks that have animations which play for other players), which cannot be faked past Impostors.[22]

If a Crewmate is killed or whatever player is voted out and ejected, they become a ghost. Ghosts can pass through walls, watch other players' activities, and see and conversation with other ghosts.[18] Living players have a limited cone of vision;[23] ghosts practise non.[24] Moreover, ghosts cannot communicate with living players or be seen by them. Ghosts aid their living teammates by completing their tasks (as a Crewmate) or performing various acts of sabotage (equally an Impostor).[13]

Any living player may phone call a group meeting past reporting a dead trunk, or past pressing the Emergency Meeting button on the map at any time (except during major sabotages, when Emergency Meetings cannot exist called, but dead bodies can still exist reported).[18] [25] [26] During a coming together, players talk over who they believe is an Impostor based on the available evidence. Impostors can be identified beyond all reasonable incertitude if they are seen venting or killing. A role player may exist suspected for many other reasons though. Notwithstanding, all the players class a sort of jury and must weigh the veracity or value of each other's statements and questions during the coming together. A plurality vote is held, and if a plurality is obtained, the histrion whom the most crewmates voted is ejected from the map and they become a ghost, unless the majority of the crewmates choose to skip vote or there is a tie vote.[19] [xviii] Players can communicate in a built-in text chat (with some predefined phrases for phone users),[19] just only during meetings, and only if they are alive (though ghosts can speak with one some other at whatever time).[13] [18] [23] While the game does non take a built-in voice chat organisation, information technology is common for players to use external programs such equally Discord,[27] [28] [29] or to antipodal regularly if they are in shut physical proximity to one another. In case players can hear each other'southward voices, the game reminds them to not speak except during meetings.

In Nov 2021, additional roles were fabricated bachelor to players extending across the standard Crewmate or Impostor roles. Crewmates can besides be Engineers, Scientists, or Guardian Angels. Engineers allow Crewmates to travel through vents similar Impostors can, albeit to a express capacity. Scientists tin cheque vitals at whatever time to meet if any actor has been killed recently. Crewmates who get Ghosts can get Guardian Angels, which tin can temporarily protect living players from being killed. Impostors also can be Shapeshifters, allowing them to temporarily morph into other players.

In each game'southward entrance hall, various options tin can be adjusted to customize aspects of gameplay, such as player movement speed, the allowed number of emergency meetings, number of tasks, if there will be "visual tasks",[30] or whether or not an Impostor is revealed after existence voted off.[31] At that place are also many cosmetic options, including spacesuit colors, skins, hats, and pets,[32] [33] some of which are paid downloadable content.[due east] [5] [7] [23]

Amidst Us was inspired by the live political party game Mafia,[v] [35] and the scientific discipline fiction horror picture The Thing.[36] The idea for the concept was originally given past Marcus Bromander, co-founder of Innersloth, who had played Mafia since he was a kid. In the original game, function cards were dealt and players wandered around a house, aimlessly, while another person secretly killed the players, drawing a finger around their neck. Near of its mechanics were still present in Amidst United states, simply the squad wanted to "convalesce the need to create an interesting home model and have someone wandering around in a boring environs". So, they decided that the game would be space themed and too added tasks, which, according to Forest Willard, programmer at Innersloth, "changed several times during development".[36] [37]

Evolution began in November 2017.[37] The game was initially intended to exist a mobile-only local multiplayer game with a unmarried map.[38] Bromander paused development on Innersloth's other game, The Henry Stickmin Collection, in guild to build Among U.s.a.' outset map, The Skeld.[39] When they began developing the first map, they intended that the ship was always in crunch and that the Impostors could do tasks. However, they establish this setup "stressful" and decided that information technology "[wouldn't get out] much time for detective piece of work and informed coming together conversations".[36] [37] Willard described playtesting as painful and frustrating, as the game would interruption down during sessions forcing him to transport playtesters new builds off of Google Play. The team tested the game with viii of their friends and never tested the game with 9 or the maximum of ten players.[39] The game was developed using the Unity engine.[40]
