Among Us: 12 Tips to Win as Impostor and Crewmate

Among Us is a game of lies, and the best players are the best liars. Whether you're the impostor trying to get away with murder or a crewmate trying to catch the killer, these tips will win you more games.

Playing as the impostor

As the impostor, your job is to kill the crewmates without getting caught. The key is to blend in. Do your tasks. Act like you're working. The moment you look suspicious, you're done.

Use the vents

The vents are your best friend. You can use them to move around the map without being seen. But be careful, because if someone sees you enter a vent, you're caught. Use them when no one's looking.

Kill when no one's watching

Don't kill in the middle of a crowd. Wait until you're alone with a crewmate, then strike. The best time is when someone is doing a task in a corner. Kill them, and move on.

Fake your tasks

You have fake tasks as the impostor. Do them anyway. Stand at the task, wait a few seconds, and move on. It looks like you're working, and it keeps you safe.

Blame someone else

When a body is found, be the first to point fingers. Blame someone else, and you'll look innocent. Just don't be too eager, or you'll look suspicious.

Playing as the crewmate

As a crewmate, your job is to find the impostor and complete your tasks. The key is to stay alive and pay attention.

Do your tasks

Your tasks are your win condition. If you complete all your tasks, you win. So, do them. But be careful, because the impostor is watching.

Watch the behavior

Watch how people move. If someone is following you, they might be the impostor. If someone is standing around doing nothing, they might be faking tasks. Pay attention.

Call meetings

If you see something suspicious, call a meeting. It's better to be safe than sorry. And in the meeting, share what you saw. The more information, the better.

The art of the meeting

The meetings are where the game is won or lost. In a meeting, you need to be convincing. If you're the impostor, you need to sound innocent. If you're a crewmate, you need to sound sure.

And remember, the impostor is always lying. So, if someone's story doesn't add up, they might be the impostor.

Among Us is a game of trust and deception. Use these tips, and you'll win more games than you lose.
