Among Us review

Among Us is a world-known multiplayer social deduction video game. It first launched in 2018 but became truly popular in 2020. The developer of the game is InnerSloth. Among Us is like the game of Mafia but in space.

Gameplay

Players are divided into two teams: The Peaceful Astronauts and the Imposters. The Peaceful Astronauts have to do tasks around the ship, while the Imposters have to pretend to do the tasks and murder the Peaceful Astronauts without being caught. The Imposters can do this by using different objects around the ship, such as the phone, computer, and the toolbox. If the Peaceful Astronauts manage to do the tasks without being murdered, they win the game.

Graphics

The graphics of Among Us are minimalistic and 2D. They are reminiscent of the mid-2000s, and are stylized with a cartoony aesthetic. The animation and graphics of the game are simple, but are enjoyable.

Information about replayability

After playing Among Us with the same people, there is little replayability. However, players can play with people they don't know in order to spice things up.
