In Among Us players are assigned roles aboard a spaceship, space station, or planetary base. Most players are Crewmates, tasked with completing maintenance tasks, while a smaller number are Impostors whose goal is to sabotage the mission and eliminate the Crewmates without being caught.

The game thrives on communication and deduction. Players hold emergency meetings to discuss suspicious behavior, share information, and vote out potential Impostors. This unique blend of strategy, social interaction, and deception makes every round unpredictable and exciting.
