A game so simple yet it became the most played game of the year in 2020 and is still being widely played to this day. If you've been living under a rock and haven't heard of or played Among us yet, here's essentially how it works. It's similar to games like Secret Hitler, Town of salem, Werewolf, etc. where one player is not who they say they are and the rest are regular players. In an average match there are several teammates whose main goal is to either complete all the tasks needed in the game, or to vote out whoever the imposter is. The imposters goal is to kill as many teammates as they can while not getting discovered or voted out by the other players. When the imposter kills another player, the other teammates can report the dead body by calling an emergency meeting and everyone discusses what happened and what they saw, obviously the imposter wants to lie here and convince everyone that they aren't the imposter, which depending on who you're playing as can be easier said than done. An incredibly simple game but yet works so well and is some of the most fun I've had all year.
