Weird Among Us Cosplay Lets You Be All 10 Players At Once

Weird Among Us Cosplay Lets You Be All 10 Players At Once An Instagram user is making "low-cost" Among Us cosplays using his own body parts to represent the crew members of the beloved multiplayer game. An Instagram user has found a bizarre way to cosplay multiple Among Us characters at the same time. The social deduction game has taken the internet by storm despite being largely ignored when it released in 2018. The game has reached such incredible amounts of popularity that the developer cancelled a sequel to focus up on developing the current game. Among Us, like the similarly explosive Fall Guys before it, owes much of its success to its adorable, minimally designed characters. The astronauts in Among Us are small, beanlike creatures, decked out like Skittles in bright primary colors. Like in Fall Guys, players can purchase cosmetic accessories for their astronaut, including hats, and even little pets that can follow them around. While players are mostly interested in Amo...

How to Play Jester Mode in Among Us (Custom Game)

How to Play Jester Mode in Among Us (Custom Game)

In Jester Mode, a custom game mode for Among Us, one player is assigned the role of Jester. They need to be voted out to win the whole game.

How to Play Jester Mode in Among Us (Custom Game)

Players can become suspicious of just about everyone in a lobby when playing Jester mode in Among Us. Among Us is a traditional social deduction game, similar to Werewolf or Mafia. Right now, Among Us only supports the original, classic game format. Players are split into two groups. The larger group are the crewmates who are assigned tasks to complete and who must discover and vote to eject all the Impostors to win the game. The smaller group of Impostors usually contains one or two players. These players must sabotage and kill every crewmate to win the game. Players in the community have gotten creative building mods and custom game modes to change the format of Among Us and keep the experience fresh and interesting. One new game mode introduces a Jester role to the game. In this mod, the Jester's only goal is to act as suspicious as possible and get voted out.

This Among Us mod, much like the mod introducing the Doctor role, was demonstrated in a video by popular streamer Socksfor1. If a player given the role of Jester gets voted out, they win the game, and both the Impostors and the crewmates all suffer defeat. This mod makes it so every player is immediately suspicious of anyone acting suspicious so they don't vote out the Jester and accidentally lose the game for themselves and their team and can make crewmates hesitant to vote someone out. Here's how to play Among Us using the Jester role.

Players should note that it is usually only possible to play modded versions of Among Us or custom mini-games via private servers. This is because many of the mods and custom games require a high level of cooperation, and players need to adhere to house rules that may not be strictly enforced by the game itself. Players should try these games with a group of trusted friends to avoid any issues or lack of cooperation.

Once a player is assigned the role of Jester, they will want to act suspicious. However, if they act too suspicious, they are likely to be kept in the game, despite their antics, as it will be obvious they are trying to get voted out to win the game. The key to playing as Jester is balance; players will want to manipulate situations to appear suspicious, but not act so overtly guilty that it gives them away. That said, the Jester can still play up their innocence while the rest of the crewmates deliberate. They will need to do some of their best acting to get away with it.

If the Jester is found out and killed by an Impostor rather than through a vote, they will lose the game. For this reason, Impostors might specifically try to kill the Jester during the round. Players with this role will want to be careful not to be killed.

Other players can use the role of Jester to their advantage. Impostors can strategically look a little too guilty to appear like a sloppy Jester and be kept in the game until they manage to kill all the crewmates. They can also get into arguments with other players over who is really the Jester to add to the sense of confusion and suspicion. Crewmates who are innocent but incur suspicion can also act like a Jester to be kept alive long enough to prove their innocence, though this is less common and less likely to succeed. These techniques are not foolproof, and if a player is enjoying the game with people who know their style or skill level well, it can backfire.

In the video, Socksfor1 and his friends play with most of the usual game settings. They leave Confirm Ejects on, though this game could be played with that feature turned off to add another level to the mind games of this mode. Fans can see Socksfor1 and his friends playing with this game mode by watching the video below.

The Jester role makes it so everyone appears suspicious, and even the most subtle suspicious act could be a trick by a clever Jester trying to win the game. This makes it more difficult for crewmates to deduce who might be Impostors and also makes it hard for Impostors to win before the Jester gets voted out. In this game mode, one single player is in the game exclusively for themselves, and the other two teams must work together to eliminate this player before they can win.

What Among Us Least Sus Names Are

What Among Us Least Sus Names Are Appearing unsuspicious is a vital aspect of playing Among Us, and choosing the right name is an important part of that. What names are the least sus? Naming characters in Among Us is one of the funnest aspects of the game. Names can be a great way for players to make their friends laugh, or a way to confuse other players and even fly under the radar. However, a suspicious - or sus - name can be a surefire way to get ejected. So, what are some of the least sus names in Among Us now? Player perceptions regarding sus names in Among Us have changed with the game. When Among Us first rose in popularity last year, something as simple as naming a character "Honest Abe" or "Trusty Bob" could inspire trustworthiness. However, that's not really the case anymore. Most players will see this naming convention as a ruse, and it might actually backfire - making other crewmates more suspicious of someone with "Honest" or "Trusty...

Among Us Concept Art Shows How Fast Crewmate Design Came Together

Among Us Concept Art Shows How Fast Crewmate Design Came Together Newly released concept art for Among Us shows that the simple design of the crewmate was settled very early on in the development process. Concept art for Among Us has emerged online, showing that the design of the crewmate characters in the game was remarkably similar to the result and was finalized very quickly by developer InnerSloth. The game, which actually released way back in 2018, has become a surprise hit over the last month or so. In fact, the popularity of the indie title has risen so much that it has overtaken other surprise successes like Fall Guys on streaming site Twitch. Among Us takes the basic concept from social deduction board games like Ultimate Werewolf and transfers it to a video game experience. Players take on the role of crewmates carrying out basic tasks on a spaceship, while one is an imposter who is trying to kill off the rest of the crew. Psychological manipulation and deceit play an importa...

TellTale Games The Wolf Among Us 2 Trailer News & Latest Updates Though there's been little news on The Wolf Among Us 2 since its announcement back in 2019, that's finally changing. Here's what we know so far. Telltale Games announced the return of The Wolf Among Us upon the studio's 2019 revival, but there have been few updates about the project since. Based on Bill Willingham's Fables comic series, the first game was released over the course of five episodes in 2013 and 2014. It served as a prequel to Fables in which players controlled Bigby Wolf (a.k.a. the Big Bad Wolf), the sheriff of a hidden New York community occupied by fairytale characters called Fabletown. The story followed Bigby as he investigated mysterious murders in Fabletown, a community that had previously been fairly safe for a long time. The original Wolf Among Us game was praised for its noir tone, visual style and story. Now, after years without news on The Wolf Among Us 2, a recent Game In...
