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...

Among Us Fan Board Game Brings The Skeld Map To Tabletop

Among Us Fan Board Game Brings The Skeld Map To Tabletop

An Among Us fan made tabletop game is in the works by GK-Games, bringing the classic Skeld map and the mechanics from Among Us to tabletop form.

Among Us Fan Board Game Brings The Skeld Map To Tabletop

The hit game Among Us is in the process of being brought over to tabletop form, starting with the Skeld map. The concept of Among Us in tabletop form is no doubt unusual for the kind of game it is. It still has the potential to deliver the same amount of fun that can be gotten from the game.

The Skeld map is perhaps the most recognizable map in Among Us. It's the first map to select from in the game, and its sections and tasks are the easiest to remember and execute. Other tasks in maps like Polus can take a bit more time to grasp than the ones in Skeld. It's also easy to understand where impostors can get away with kills, such as the electrical room where there happens to be a vent in the back for impostors to make a clean getaway. The Skeld has remained extremely iconic for these reasons, and many crewmates and impostors alike have been ejected on this map.

GK-Game has posted their concept of an Among Us tabletop game on their Facebook page. The crewmates are set pieces on the Skeld map, and there are various types of cards for the game. There are suspect cards, task cards, sabotage cards, and portrait cards. The game is still a work in progress, so it's unknown exactly how these cards would be used.

There are certain kinks that would need to be worked out if this were to be turned into a full game. If a player were to get a kill as an impostor, there would have to be a unique process to expose and eject them, as an impostor wouldn't be able to get away with a kill without everyone seeing it happen. It's also unknown how tasks and sabotages would work and if they'd be similar to their Among Us iteration. A dice roll could theoretically affect some of these choices, but it won't be known for sure until the full game is completed.

But should this game be complete, it could serve as not just a way to have fun with Among Us in a new type of format, but it could also be used to potentially bring newcomers into the game. The mechanics obviously wouldn't work the same, but the same general concept would still apply to the video game, allowing fun for the whole family. For that, this tabletop version of Among Us could have the same chaotic fun potential that the video game exudes in its gameplay.

Among Us Theory What Impostors Really Are

Among Us Theory What Impostors Really Are Among Us' dastardly Impostors terrorize crewmates with various forms of killing and sabotage, and fans have theories about their origins and motives. The Impostors that give Among Us its name and central gameplay hook are, by design, a mysterious bunch. On the surface, they're nearly identical to Among Us' colorful crewmates, but Impostors exhibit certain strange and terrifying properties. Due to the game's lack of overt story, it's unclear what exactly Among Us' Impostors are, but fans have a few compelling theories. Unlike normal crewmates, Impostors have the ability to slink through vents, which - unless crewmates are small enough to do this, too, but simply have no need to - suggests they have some kind of shapeshifting ability. This would also explain Impostors' ability to open up a large mouth at the waist of their spacesuits and stab victims with sharp tongues. It's possible Among Us' crewmates also ha...

Every Among Us Kill Animation Ranked By Level Of Violence

Every Among Us Kill Animation Ranked By Level Of Violence Among Us is pretty brutal for such a simple-looking game with cute, rounded characters. Here's each kill animation ranked from least to most violent. Despite the rather cute and simple look of Among Us, the online science fiction game has some pretty horrific kill animations that are often shown when an Impostor is left alone with an unsuspecting Crewmate. This list will go over each one, ranking them from least to most violent. Killing is a natural part of Among Us as the premise states a parasitic shapeshifter Impostor has taken the place of one of the Crewmates in an otherwise productive crew of MIRA scientists, explorers, and researchers. Crewmates try figure out who the Impostor is while trying to stay alive, but fans know that death is an inevitable part of the game. In fact, the absence of one makes it near impossible to find out who the real Impostors are. Currently, there are only four different kill animations, but...

Among Us Map Timeline Theory How The Impostor Attacks Started

Among Us Map Timeline Theory How The Impostor Attacks Started One interesting Among Us fan theory offers an explanation on the origins of the Impostors and provides a timeline for when and where they appear. The online social deduction multiplayer title Among Us is a relatively simple game, but it's recent success has already brought about some interesting and complex fan theories to give more backstory to the space-themed setting. One theory gives a plausible explanation for how the Impostors came to be, incorporating each of the maps for more evidence. There are currently three maps in Among Us: The Skeld, MIRA HQ, and the latest addition, Polus. The developers are in the process of adding a new map, so this theory will only pertain to the ones already available. The Skeld is the primary map that takes place on a cargo spaceship which travels to the other locations. MIRA HQ is a tall building set high in a planet's atmosphere and is the location the Crewmates travel back to a...
