This New Game Is Anything But “Sus”<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Although initially released in June of 2018, one of the many games that has grown in popularity during quarantine is called Among Us. It’s hilarious and a great way to pass the time while stuck at home.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the game may seem intricut, once you start playing, it\u2019s really easy. Each game is made up of 10 or fewer people. One to three people are assigned to be the imposter and the rest are crewmates. It\u2019s the imposter\u2019s job to kill most of the crewmates before they figure out who the imposter is. The crewmates must complete all of their daily tasks around the map before the imposter kills them. The crewmates and the imposter have the choice to vote out a player every time a body is reported or an emergency meeting is called. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite the darker premise, the game is actually very comedic. Players name themselves, choose the color they want for their avatar, and can dress in different costumes that range from viking helmets to toilet paper to a sticky note labeled \u201cDUM.\u201d The cartoon animations of the different tasks and even of the players killing each other adds to the playful nature of the game. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
