Answer:
Among Us is a multiplayer game that requires four to ten players for a match to start. One, two, or three players (depending on what the host selected) are randomly[15] chosen to be the impostor(s) each round. A game can take place on one of three maps: a spaceship called "The Skeld", a headquarters building called "MIRA HQ", or a planet base called "Polus".[3][16] A fourth map, The Airship, has been announced on December 10th, 2020 and is planned to be released in early 2021.[17][18]
At the start of the game, Crewmates are given "tasks" to complete around the map in the form of minigames, consisting of maintenance work on vital systems such as electrical rewiring and engine refueling. Impostors are given a fake list of tasks to blend in with Crewmates, although they are unable to actually complete any task. Impostors can sabotage vital systems and doors, covertly travel through air vents, and work with other Impostors to kill Crewmates. If a player dies, they become a ghost. Ghosts can pass through walls, are invisible to everyone except other ghosts, and can chat with other ghosts anytime, but not with any other player (since alive players can only chat during meetings, and the ghosts' texts are only visible to other ghosts); however, dead Crewmates must still complete their tasks. If an Impostor dies from being voted off, they can still sabotage to help the other Impostor(s).[19][20] All players except ghosts[21] have a limited cone of vision, only allowing them to see other players within a certain unblocked distance around them.[22]
The Crewmates win by completing all tasks each, or by identifying and eliminating all Impostors. The Impostors win when the number of Impostors is equal to the number of Crewmates, or when a sabotage countdown reaches zero. Ghosts help their living teammates by completing tasks (as a Crewmate) or performing sabotages (as an Impostor). When an Impostor performs a sabotage, either there is an immediate consequence (such as all the lights being turned off) or a countdown begins. In the latter case, if the sabotage is not resolved before the countdown finishes, the Impostors win. Sabotages can be resolved by living players in varying ways depending on which sabotage is performed.[16][19][20] Games can also end by players quitting the match if doing so fulfills any win condition; a player quitting is equivalent to them being eliminated, and a Crewmate quitting leads to their tasks being considered completed for the total.[23][24]
To help the Crewmates identify Impostors, there are various surveillance systems in each map, such as a security camera system on The Skeld,[25] a doorlog in MIRA HQ,[26] and a vitals indicator in Polus.[16] Crewmates may also confirm their identity through visual tasks, which cannot be faked by Impostors.[27] Any living player may call a group meeting by reporting a dead body, or by pressing a button in the map at any time (except when a sabotage is in progress).[20][28][29] This halts all other gameplay. In the meeting, players discuss who they believe is an Impostor based on the available evidence.[19][20] A plurality vote is held, and the chosen player is ejected from the map and dies. After that, if a specific setting was activated, it is revealed if that person was an Impostor or not.[19][20] Players can communicate in a text chat,[19] but only during meetings, and only if they are alive (though ghosts can speak with one another at any time).[16][20][22] While the game does not have a built-in voice chat system, it is common for players to use external programs such as Discord while playing.[30][31][32]
In each game's lobby, various options can be adjusted to customize aspects of gameplay, such as the vision range of the Crewmates and the Impostors, and the allowed number of emergency meetings.[22][33][34] There are also many cosmetic options, including spacesuit colors, skins, hats, and pets,[35][36] some of which are paid downloadable content.[e][6][11][22
