“Among Us”, a multiplayer game developed by American game studio InnerSloth and released on June 15, 2018. The game takes space as the theme and background, and the player will act as one of the crewmates or one of the imposters. The goal of the crew is to find the impostor and get them out of the game or complete all the tasks, but the goal of the impostors is to kill all the crewmates without being discovered by anyone before they throw you out of the spaceship. Although the game was released in 2018, it is almost unknown to anyone when release. It then becomes popular until 2020 because many Twitch live broadcasters and YouTubers start to play the game. In response to the sudden popularity of the game, the game developer announced in August 2020 that it would develop the sequel “Among Us 2,” but after that, they announced that they would cancel the development of the sequel one month later and shift the focus to improving the original game.
In addition, players also started to play some special game modes that is made by themselves or the others, evolving “Among Us” from the original ordinary gameplay to various gameplays. As mentioned earlier, the normal gameplay is for the player to act as a crew member or an impostor and play the game until they win by completing their objectives. The creative players have also developed quite a lot of different modes. Let me introduce you to one of them!
The first one, hide and seek mode is one of the most popular game modes. The rules and format of the “Hide and Seek” mode are more interesting and exciting than the original “Among Us” gameplay. There is only one impostor, and you must declare yourself as an impostor before making a countdown at the beginning. Then when the countdown is over, he/she will start hunting down teammates and killing them, and the crew cannot report the corpse but must complete all the tasks to win. If you are interested, you can refer to this video and try it with your friends!
There are also modes like GMod’s Prop Hunt.
Of course, there are more other modes that are very interesting and fun, almost all of them are created by fans themselves, such as “Dead by Deadlight Mode”, “Small Talk Mode”, “Only color name Mode” and so on. All of them are very interesting, so make sure you try one of them out one day! I can confirm that you will fall in love with one of them!
But not long ago, Among Us’s official Twitter posted a twit with a photo, which caused a series of “chaos.” A crewmate who walks on four feet! The official even said humorously, “What if…”. I think I do know that nobody wants it…

But the next thing is even more bizarre. From the official image, a player opened up his mind and become creative, then made a crew member walking on MORE feet! It feels a bit like a centipede. . .
