    This game is so rediculously overrated. This game is full of toxic players and it gets boring fast thanks to the boring, tedious tasks and same old simplistic level design.

    I do like this game and its concept of finding out who is the bad guy (In most of cases I play with 8 crewmates and 2 impostors), but recently it stopped to be fun. The amount of times people disconnect from games right at the beginning is abysmal. Many times we've experienced that 2 people leave that the start, then next 2 are getting killed and it's game over.

The amount of times people disconnect from games right at the beginning is abysmal. Many times we've experienced that 2 people leave that the start, then next 2 are getting killed and it's game over. That happened 4 times in a row yesterday and I was done. And of course, we also met cheaters, or script kiddies as you like. They were changing colors and names during the match, and they did not appear on the players list, we could not kick them. They also had the power to vote people off without any problem and we had no chance to react. Sometimes there were also impostors killing people without any cooldown. The only solution to this is to play with a full squad of friends.

    Edit: 11/01/20 - Dropping the score to 2, the amount of crashes, disconnects, and some errors (reliable packet size 1 something...) is starting to be annoying    … Expand

    This game is very bad, it is absurd to pay 10 dollars in a game like this which is the same thing on your cell phone and in days you already get sick.

    Complete and utter ripoff of Pretend by Whitesquare. Among Us rips assets straight from the game the maps layouts are near identical just with a nonsensical spaceship theme. Among Us has no voice chat support and has paid DLC. This game is just a big cash grab. I recommend picking up Pretend on steam now, it's only 1$ USD and out preforms the game in every category.

    Its an awesome idea and is a lot of fun for a long time if you know enough people to play with with voice chat.
    But technically its a very bad game. What I mean is that its framework is really bad.
    They should have added voice chat support a long time ago. They could have increased player count. They could have added many more maps. They could have added more game modes.

    But they did nothing of that. They pretty much are the definition of to rest on one's laurels.

    If you think you will have fun playing with silent strangers from random servers, you will have a bad awakening. And you wont find new friends in this game either, because its so massively restricted in social interaction. You almost feel like youre playing against bots.

    If you want a much better Among Us, try Goose Goose Duck. Lots of Youtubers and streamers have already discovered it and showed how superior it is to Among Us. It does everything better than Among Us. EVERYTHING!    … Expand

    I picked this up due to sudden popularity and cheap price. It really is not a good game and it owes its popularity to streamers. It plays like a mobile game (in fact it is a mobile game) and game mechanics are extremely simplistic. There is a lot of down time on lobbies as well as when you vote.

    We need ranked matches. I'm tired of being paired with dumb people in a social deduction game. If the developers don't want this game to die, they need to drop more maps and add a win/loss based ranked match system instead of worrying about their merch shop.

    Yes. The score is the same. I loved this game. In the very old days. Now it has changed beyond words. Intermediate exits, illegal programs, bad words, and all sorts of dirty and bad things started to happen. I really liked this game, but people were doing so badly that I'm now in my worst game. It is the worst. I miss the old Among us.

    It's a fun game, but there are many issues. The worst issue is that the game is overrated. This doesn't deserve to be the GOTY. These 6 year old "gamers" can't afford good games like TCRSS or Red dead redemption 2 so they bless Among us. The next issue is the repetitive gameplay. Every round you do the same stuff. The last issue is that the game wasn't updated in a year.

    Playing as imposter is enjoyable. Playing as crewmate means chores. These tasks are just boring not fun to do. It is only fun when you perfectly guess imposters.

    Quickly becomes repetitive. Always the same thing. No change, no difference. After some time your brain get numb from monotony and you don't care about anything anymore.

    Puto juego de mierda lleno de hackers. No dejan disfrutar del juego. Me cago en todos los hijos de tresmil putas hackers dañando una partida tras otra.

    Tenia posibilidades de ser un juego decente pero los putos pene corto lo estan jodiendo todo... Cuanto bajo autoestima en el mundo. Infelices de mirrda.

    It's an okay game, its not really a fun game to play by yourself and there isn't much content but it's a decent timewaster when bored and have nothing to do.

    Fun at first, the game quickly degraded from a game of deduction to "who can say red sus the fastest".
    People don't see evidence when it's in front of their faces, "oh that person was not the Impostor, logically there is only one left that could be impostor... hmmm today i think i will vote for the guy i clearly saw scan at medbay"
    The game is also pretty poorly made with weird controls.    Fun at first, the game quickly degraded from a game of deduction to "who can say red sus the fastest".

    Innersloth are the most neglectful, laziest game developers ever. Among Us is still a glitchy mess, even several years after its release. They have made millions of dollars from the game and could easily reinvest some of that money into hiring programmers to fix glitches, but they haven't. They don't care about their customers at all.

    Among Us is also plagued by cheaters, and Innersloth doesn't actually do anything about it. I know because I have "reported users for hacking/cheating" for blatantly obvious cheating only to find those same exact users still using the game the next day. Their website claims "bad faith reports… will result in enforcement of consequences," which is their excuse for ignoring this problem. They haven't banned me for "bad faith reports" and they haven't banned cheaters for cheating, by the way. That's just their excuse for doing nothing.

    I sent an email to them via the Contact Us link on their website about this, and they haven't replied. I bet this review will be ignored by them too, but you should heed my warning. Innersloth and Among Us are terrible. Wait until another game developer makes a game like Among Us but without glitches and without cheaters. Then buy that game instead.    … Expand

    Among Us successfully transfers the devious gameplay of in-person cloak-and-dagger games to video game form. Murder and deception on a whimsical cartoony spaceship is so much fun that the only real question is what took it so long to catch on?

    Anyone who can rally up some friends simply needs to give Among Us a try and feel the brilliant tension that builds up within the group as trust deteriorates and everyone becomes suspicious. [12/2020, p.42]
