Among Us[c] is an online multiplayer social deduction game, developed and published by American[2] game studio InnerSloth and released on June 15, 2018. The game takes place in a space-themed setting where players each take on one of two roles, most being Crewmates, and a predetermined number being Impostors.

The goal for the Crewmates is to identify the Impostors, eliminate them, and complete tasks around the map; the Impostors' goal is to covertly sabotage and kill the Crewmates before they complete all their tasks. Through a plurality vote, players believed to be Impostors may be removed from the game. If all Impostors are eliminated or all tasks are completed, the Crewmates win; if there are an equal number of Impostors and Crewmates, or if a critical sabotage goes unresolved, the Impostors win.

It's basically a Whodunnit meets Survivor game; you can play with up to 10 players, and those players will be divided up into "Crewmembers" and "Imposters". The Crewmembers have to complete a number of tasks throughout the map, while the Imposters have to kill the Crewmembers. If a body is found, all players are called into a meeting to discuss who they think the Imposters are, and can vote out someone whom they think is an Imposter. For the Crewmembers to win, they have to either complete all their tasks or find and vote all the Imposters out before the Imposters kill all the Crewmembers.
