Guide Among Us with all the tricks and secrets to win
‘ Among Us ‘ has become a revolution within the video game industry, being a title that with a fairly simple and direct premise has managed to hook millions of players around the world. And all this taking into account that at the end of September 2020 it does not have versions for consoles that could further increase its player base.
Having said all this, the title developed by InnerSloth and launched on June 15, 2018 is a title that has come to stay, so, being many of you who will be spending hours and hours on Among Us , we have prepared this guide with tips and tricks for you to get the most out of the title, whether in the role of Crewman or Imposter.
Tips being a crew member
Throughout the many games you play in ‘ Among Us ‘, it is quite likely that, due to statistics, you have to be more Crewman than Imposter, which will expose you to constant danger in the face of 1, 2 or 3 players more can kill you at any time. That is why below you have a series of tips to follow to increase your chances of success:
Don’t follow anyone
Starting with something basic, the key to Among Us is in the trust that the crew have in each other to unmask the Impostor, which is why the best thing you can do is that your companions do not suspect you. To do this, the simplest thing is not to harass anyone by following him since this act can make the other person think that you are waiting for the exact moment to kill him (which can cause that in a later vote they will kick you out).
Do visible tasks with people around
Contrary to the previous point, if what you are interested in is diverting any type of suspicion towards you, there are a series of tasks that are visible to the players, such as throwing the garbage, doing the medical scan, among others. In case you are suspicious, at the time of the discussion, comment that you can do these tasks in front of people and, if not, that they can throw you out the next time. If you do this, you will be clear of any doubts.
Finish the tasks
It is something so, but so basic that it is surprising that many do not. To win the game you can do two things: either find the Deceiver or finish the Tasks. So do not stay around and finish what they ask of you.

Do not accuse without foundation
Something very common in discussions in Among Us is that some players start accusing others without evidence. And be careful, I am not saying that this is done when it has been seen how one has beheaded another in front of us, but that there are people who do it while perhaps at the other end of the ship. Do not do it, as you may lose a partner unnecessarily.
“If it’s not him, you vote for me later” don’t do it
Closely linked to the above, but which, in addition, is equivalent to that if you make a mistake, the crew team loses two members in a single play. A very bad habit that only does favors for Imposters.
Vote Skip before voting randomly
Also at the time of voting, trust in other players is essential and, above all, not make it so easy for the Deceiver. Therefore, if you see that it is not clear, do not vote for anyone in particular, but for Skip. This is because, randomly and in a 10-player game, there will be 1 in 9 that you hit. Too low a percentage to gamble.
Do chores, even dead
Another very bad habit is the fact that, once dead, the players do nothing. This is a mistake, since even though I can’t catch the Deceiver, you can derail his plans by completing the tasks, so that if you advance enough, you will end up winning.

Tips being an imposter
Being an Imposter is cool. I will not deny it. Going around knowing that you are safe is one of the best feelings in the game. However, it also entails a “responsibility”, since victory is exclusively in your hands, having to face all the players in order to win. And, in the same way, doing it in such a way that they don’t get caught.
Disguise
It’s as simple as not being cheeky. For example, if you previously said that being a crew member it is ideal not to follow anyone so as not to create unnecessary suspicions, here it is with more reason, since if you are caught it will be automatic defeat. And also by way of advice, do not say that you are new and that you are learning to play. In all my games, that person has always been the imposter.
Do not accuse the crazy
Something typical in Imposters is wanting to divert attention to other players, either by reporting him or accusing him in the vote. To begin with, let’s say that if there is no report, they cannot fire you, so avoid them for as long as you can. Also, don’t accuse other players madly, as this often makes others suspicious of you. It is better to be observant while others roll their eyes to each other.
Wait your moment
Obviously you are interested in killing all the characters as soon as possible to win the game, but you do not have to anticipate events. That is why you must wait for the ideal moment to kill, whether you are alone or, failing that, when you can kill without anyone nearby and with an escape route.

Don’t kill in camera zones
And related to the above, another point to take into account is not only that there are players nearby, but also that they are not watched. For example, in The Skeld there are cameras in the corridors, so if someone is on security, they will catch you squarely. That is why you should avoid corridors and crowded places at all costs, since they usually have someone watching them.
Use the sewers
In the same way, in closed areas you can see yourself in the situation of being caught even when you are alone. For example, imagine that you are in Eléctrica, you kill, you go out and one enters. Obviously when he sees the body he will report it and he will know that it was you. For this reason, it is better to escape through the sewer, since this way you will have quick access to a room where you will be safer.
Sabotage
Finally, a key point to win is to periodically carry out sabotage, which consists of manipulating some element of the scene that forces the players to go there to fix it. This serves both to move people through the corridors, being a perfect opportunity to kill, as well as to disguise, since if you are going to fix the problem, many will think that you are not the impostor. Finally, there is also the possibility of winning the games like this, since in those sabotages with a countdown, if it reaches 0 you will have killed all the crew.
