Among Us Gameplay
The admin can start the game, which will trigger a random selection of 1 Impostor and 9 Crewmates which is a standard setting. The Impostor has the ability to kill and hide in the small vents waiting for his prey to walk in alone. To make the game more interesting, the in-game chat is disabled and whenever there is an Emergency meeting, the in-game chat is enabled.
As mentioned above in-game chat can only accessed when there is an Emergency Meeting. To initiate Emergency Meeting, you can either press the Use button in the Cafeteria where you spawn or find a dead corpse of your fellow crewmate and press Report.
There would be enough time provided to chat and decide whom to vote. The player who gets the maximum vote will be thrown out from the spaceship and if the Impostor is caught you all will naturally win. If the Impostor is still not caught the game continues until there is only one Crewmate left.
Win Condition:
Crewmate- Catch The Impostor, or Complete The Tasks to win.
Impostor- Kill (n-1) Crewmates whereas n is the total number of Crewmates. For example, there is a total of 10 players, 1 is Impostor and 9 is Crewmate. So, if the Impostor manages to eliminate 8 Crewmate, he wins.

Among Us How To Catch The Impostor
You can periodically watch the security cameras in the Security room which shows whoever passes through the hallway or enter any room. You can judge whether they leave alone from that room or you can catch the Impostor committing the crime on the alley where the cameras are focused.
The Impostor does not focus on completing any task and want to isolate a crewmate and kill him. To avoid such situation, you can be aware and as soon as it’s possible, complete your task and watch security cameras to catch the culprit. You may take turns with your friend, but are you sure he is trustworthy?
The game involves treachery and instantaneous judgment skills. The less the crewmate alive, the more the possibility of catching the Impostor. On another way around, the less the crewmate alive, the more is the chance for the Impostor to win. So, there is literally no advantage for any side.
