Among Us is silly fun, but I felt like it’s more fun to be an Imposter. Being able to nonchalantly walk around, hide in the vents, murder people and then disappear is just a great time, and there are folks who’ll quit if they don’t get to be Imposters, which is disappointing. Like, we all get the hats we’re handed, just wear yours and make the game great. You can finish a round of Among Us in about ten minutes if it’s handled properly, and it can be far less if someone quits or if the game arbitrarily crashes. The PC version is quite stable, but the Android version is very much a device-by-device situation. To be honest, most of my early exit games were bitter players. So be aware that, with a very low entry price point and a free price point on the mobile, you’ll get a mixed bag. If you don’t enjoy chatting, the game can be boring when it comes time to vote, and the main activities can grow stale if you’re at it alone. But it’s still a joy that I haven’t experienced in an online game in some time, and the reaction from the world at large finally getting on board and playing this thing in droves speaks to the appeal.
