Among Us is an online multiplayer social deduction game developed by Innersloth. Players take on the roles of “Crewmate” and “Impostor” in this game. The former must complete certain tasks in order to win the game while being cautious of the Imposter who kills the Crewmate. Furthermore, players can also deduce who the Impostor is to win.

This game was once one of the most streamed video games on platforms such as YouTube and Twitch. Its popularity led to the release of a new VR version and a new mode called Hide & Seek. More interestingly, recently, the game was recreated in real life by the popular English YouTube group Sidemen.
