The game is set in a space-themed backdrop, in which players each take on one of two roles, most as Crewmates, and a smaller number of Impostors. 

Among Us is a social deduction game in which players take on one of two roles, most being Crewmates and a select few Impostors. The goal of the Crewmates is to identify the Impostors, eliminate them, and complete tasks around the map; the goal of the Impostors is to covertly sabotage and eliminate the Crewmates before they complete their tasks.

Gameplay

Among Us is an online multiplayer social deduction game in which players take on one of two roles: Crewmate or Impostor. The game is set in a space-themed backdrop and tasks players with eliminating opponents or taking them out of the game while avoiding being detected by the Impostors.

As a Crewmate, the player's objective is to identify the Impostor(s), eliminate them, and complete the tasks at hand. Meanwhile, as an Impostor, the player aims to sabotage and defeat the Crewmates before they finish their assigned objectives. The game supports up to 10 players and provides both voice and text chat options for communication.

As an Impostor, the player's objective is to outmaneuver and remove all of the Crewmates before they can complete their assigned tasks. The Impostor can achieve this by causing chaos and disruption through ship sabotages or through eliminating individual Crewmates. Furthermore, the Impostor has the ability to use vents to travel swiftly across the map, making it easier to ambush and eliminate unsuspecting Crewmates.
