Among Us, Summary of Advanced Tips When Playing Among US

This guide provides a clear, practical overview of among us, summary of advanced tips when playing among US, with useful context, important details, and straightforward takeaways for everyday readers.

Capture Common Tasks

On each map, Common Quests are those assigned to all Crewmates. So, the first thing you need to do when you start a new game is to open the task list and see what tasks you have in common. If you see a player who doesn't do that quest, be suspicious of them.

On the other hand, if one is on a quest while you're not, it's the Impostor pretending!

List of general quests in each map:

• The Skeld – Fix Electrical (Fix Wiring), Swipe Card (Swipe Card)
• Mira HQ – Electrical Repair (Fix Wiring), Enter ID Code (Enter ID Code)
• Polus – Repair electricity (Fix Wiring), Look up keys (Insert Keys), Scan boarding pass (Scan Boarding Pass)

Pay attention to Crewmate's vision

The crew's vision is set by the room owner, when starting the game, pay attention to its parameters in the Crewmate Vision line. As an Impostor, train yourself to control Crewmates' vision. That way, you will be able to strike at the right time, in the right place and cover up all your clues.

Remember Camera location

Cameras on the maps The Skeld and Polus are an effective tool for Crewmates to find out who the Fake is. So, if you are an Impostor, be very careful where the camera can see it. If you see the wall-mounted camera flashing red, don't do anything shady.

In the passage of the vent (vent)

When playing Impostor, try to keep in mind the range of movement of the vents. Then, when playing Crewmate, you can use this information to suspect a player even though they're not in the same room as the corpse. For example, if there are dead bodies in the Electrical room, the people in Security or Medbay are also very suspicious because the vents in these rooms are connected to each other.

Find out the task completion time

If you try to fake a mission, you know how long it takes to complete, if you try to fake the Clear Asteroids mission but only stand there for 3 seconds, the bystanders will immediately doubt. You can also use this to suspect another player.

Check the room when passing ?i

Impostor always tries to kill people in hidden corners and few people pass by. So make it a habit to check each room as you pass, unless you absolutely need to get somewhere quickly.

Keep a consistent way of speaking

If you talk a lot, make sure you talk a lot per match. To keep quiet and let others argue, you should continue to maintain that attitude in the following games. If a quiet player suddenly spoke unusually, they would be met with great suspicion.

Turn off the light

When Crewmates start to go in groups, it's hard to take down one person. The most effective method at this time is to break the light. When Crewmates had such extremely low visibility, it was hard for them to grasp what was really going on. Based on that, you can deny your position and even blame others.

Don't trust too soon

Smart Impostors will take advantage of this. They will stay with you for a long time but not kill you, so you become trusting them. It shouldn't be like that. The person traveling with you may just be trying to take advantage of your protection to achieve an end goal.

Destroy the Community to disable the Camera

Breaking Community is definitely the weakest and least chosen feature when you play Impostor. But its true power isn't just disabling the task list. In addition, it also disables Camera and some other features in the Admin room. When you realize that someone is watching the camera, destroy the Community to 'blind' them.

Kill in the group

This is a very effective strategy in many cases. When Crewmates are standing on top of each other in the same place, like when they fix a light or perform a task. You can take advantage of this, pretend to join them and hit 'Kill'. When a corpse lies down, it will be difficult for Crewmates to see who has done the action and they will be extremely confused. Meanwhile, you just have to pretend to be bewildered like them.

'Catch' the leaders

When you enter the game room, there will be some more experienced players and they will become the detective of the game. If they were Impostors, these people would be a huge threat. Notice who is confidently leading discussions and investigations. Then try to kill these players before they find out who you are.

Do not do visual tasks alone

Intuitive tasks are a useful tool for you to prove yourself clean. Leave the visual task alone until someone comes with you. Now do this task in front of them, and they can see and verify you. On the contrary, if you are Impostor, don't try to pretend to do visual tasks, crewmate will definitely vote for you.
