Lots of multiplayer games that encourage action, but few are able to create unique gameplay to create interaction with the players. Primarily, games that make a social discussion fun are played face-to-face, but there are also many co-op games that have a similar theme. One of them is Among Us, who is now very popular.
Among Us was previously released on Steam in November 2018 ago. Now, the game has been downloaded by more than one million users on the Play Store and looks set to be a prolonged trend for some time to come. The reason is, during a pandemic, games that emphasize social interaction like this are very attractive.
How do Among Us present a memorable game? For that, follow the full review from me below, let's go!
Exploring Headquarters and Fulfilling Tasks
In the game Among Us, players have to find out who is the Impostor. Meanwhile, Crewmates have to complete tasks if they want to win easier. In this way, Among Us combines cooperation and makes the players have to work individually to achieve common goals.
We will be overcome with suspicion, who is the friend who actually completes the task while the Impostors steal the opportunity to kill the Crewmates. Not infrequently, we will be overcome with fear if someone suddenly follows us. In fact, this person may just want to complete the task as a Crewmate.
Uniquely, each task given contains a minigame element and makes it very fun to do. The Impostors can also sabotage and make the crew have to fix important elements if they don't want to die from oxygen or lose energy generating power.
We will be carried away completing tasks and discussing by racking our brains if a corpse is found. Did the killer report the crime himself, or was he just a Crewmate who was terrified of seeing his friend killed?
Unique Map Selection
This year, Among Us officially released their third map, Polus. This game then became very popular after being released for free on the Play Store if previously it had to be purchased for 5 US dollars or around 75 thousand rupiah. Players can already get all three maps for free if they play on a mobile platform with advertising conditions.
In these three maps, you can choose a spaceship, a base in the sky, or a new colony on planet Polus. Each area has a unique location and several different missions, although some of the patterns of the tasks involved are the same. In this way, we can feel the variety of games when trying out the games in it.
There are times when this difference in maps makes us happy to explore the space in it. Every time there is an emergency, we will definitely go back and forth to a certain place and make the playing experience feel very different. For example, there is always a chance that the impostor will stab him to death or find an unexpected corpse.
Become an astute impostor
The game will feel very exciting if you have the opportunity to become an Impostor. In this game, only 10 people can play a maximum of one time while Impostor can add up to three people each time. This composition can be adjusted, along with the many tasks that we will complete.
Generally, if the number of Impostors increases, there should be fewer tasks so that the game can be faster. For Impostors, finding an opening to kill without getting caught is no less tense. The reason is, we must be able to find an alibi if we want to be free from the suspicion of Crewmates.
By holding Sabotage, we can also adjust the rhythm of the game and keep Crewmates busy. In each folder, we can also use the door to the vent to disguise our activities. You have to be smart to find excuses and pretend to complete the task if you want to win to become an Impostor, deh!
Unsupported Connectivity
Following its popularity, the servers of Among Us often get interruptions from the direct experience of me trying out the game. Especially for mobile which has been played by many people. There are times when in one day we will find that the matchmaker in the game is fully charged and we have to wait patiently.
On the other hand, the PC version of the game runs very smoothly. In fact, Discord bot support can make verbal communication feel easier. We will be able to talk to other players in each discussion session and those who die will switch channels. Meanwhile, the canals for Impostors were also distinguished.
Henceforth, Among Us can develop into a very exciting co-op game for many players to try. Do not rule out if this game will be busy until the end of the year or even the journey will become as popular as the Werewolf board game that many people already know.
As a light game release, Among Us brings a unique experience to feel the tension of doing things and can't trust anyone. Here, player communication is a strong value to be able to win in every game. As if building our communication bridge that was damaged by a pandemic, this game will leave a very exciting recreation room.
So, did you also have time to try Among Us? If so, don't hesitate to share your impressions in the comments below! Keep following my game reviews and other interesting writings, ciao.
