Among Us

[omgfridge]

Apologies if there is already a thread but I didn't see one.

Game has been out a while yet has sky rocketed up the popularity charts. Think mainly due to a lot of high profile streamers playing.

Effectively most games you're in a group of 10 on a space ship with 1-3 (mostly 2) impostor evil players with their goal to kill the crew mates without being caught and you do tasks/try to sleuth who the bad guys are.

Game has a very small support staff so needs a lot of updates ie. servers, friend lists etc.. And a lot of problems with people leaving if they don't get thje impostor role.

Yet it's just so satisfying getting a win. An absolute blast with friends on a discord channel where you can read everyone tells/catch a mate in lie. Can be frustrating with all randoms but still had some fun.

If you haven't somehow heard of this it's $7.50 on steam and free on moblile with cross platform play.

Great game but its absolutely vital to play with people you know as opposed to the public rooms. Setting up a discord chat or playing with people IRL is just an absolute blast.

Yeah agreed.

Even voice chat on discord with people you don't know sucks tbh. You really need to be able to recognise everyone's voice and match it with their colour/name pretty quickly.

An absolute blast with a group of friends though. But I reckon you need at least 8 people minimum for it to be worth it, which can make it a bit difficult to organise sessions.

Enough interest for some BigFooty game nights?

Kirran getting imposter 3 times in a row and self reporting each time was amazing

That was glorious.

The other day when they had Megami playing as well and Kirran managed to convince Quinn that Megami was the imposter despite Quinn being with Megami practically that whole game.

Kirran is actually a genius.

Also love Lani just getting everyone to vote Kaiser off for no reason straight away.

Just wish there was a paid version on mobile so I don't have to deal with the ads after every game.

They've posted a couple of edited versions on their TFSGaming YouTube page that cuts together their perspectives from their individual streams which is hilarious.

I usually use Lani's stream but Taka, Grant and Kirran are also hilarious.

Was nuts to find out that a few guys at work play among us so got my first taste of it tonight, being imposter without a 2nd imposter is bloody hard haha
