Why Among Us is Very Popular?

Over the recent weeks, Among Us has become so much popular, thanks to Twitch streamers and Youtubers who are playing it. Different social media have been flooded by posts and memes about the game. There have been a lot of talks going on that many non-gamers have also given it a try and they love it. Those who haven’t played it yet might be wondering what the hype is all about. 

Among Us is often compared to Froggy/Wink Murderer and Mafia, where players gather in a circle. One player becomes the killer who will try to eliminate all the other players without getting caught. The game is quite similar to the two and it has a very simple premise. There are 4 to 10 players in the game where 1 to 3 of them gets randomly chosen to become the Impostor. The rest are the Crewmates who will try to win the game by first eliminating the Impostors. They also need to complete various tasks to win unless they already found and voted out the Impostors. Only the Impostors know the other Impostors and they will try to blend with the rest of the crew. They will sabotage and murder the other players without being noticed.

The game was released two years ago but it only got the attention of many users for several reasons. They find it the perfect game to play during the quarantine. Up to ten people from different parts of the world can join and play the game at once. A group of friends who have been longing to join together can play a few rounds while practicing social distancing.

Players can experience a party-like atmosphere with different customization options. They can change their name, the color of their character, and various add-ons and accessories to express themselves and make their character distinct.

Unlike the other similar two games, players of Among US game become ghosts when they get killed and they can still continue to play. Unlike the living crew, they can talk any time so they can beg to vote for the player who killed them. They can also complete their remaining tasks to help the living members earn a victory. On the other hand, the dead Impostors, who got killed after being voted out, can still continue their sabotage but they can no longer kill the crew.

Are you still intrigued or are you not yet convinced? Just give it a try. You might not expect that you’ll be obsessed with playing the perfect game while keeping your distance from your friends and be safe at the comfort of your homes.
