One gamer found out the hard way that there is a limit to how many times an emergency meeting can be called in Among Us. As the indie game continues its popularity surge, fans are discovering more about the ins and outs of the game mechanics. Sometimes, however, these lessons come at a cost, as one player found out during their recent gaming experience.
Among Us has become a staple in the gaming community over the last few months. Being both entertaining in its escapism, and social in its multiplayer format, InnerSloth’s lockdown party favorite has continued to rise in popularity. Last month alone, the game was nearly as successful as Pokémon GO was in its heyday during 2016. Given the history and popularity that Pokémon already possessed before the release of its mobile augmented reality game, this is an incredibly impressive accomplishment from the underdogs at InnerSloth who, before this summer, were relatively unknown in the gaming world.
As with all games, a lot of the inside knowledge for Among Us comes from a first-hand experience of the gameplay. The more gamers play, the more accustomed they will become with wide open for the Impostor to strike. And strike they do, leaving the ghostly apparition of ReTrEx to watch the rest of the game unfold without them. This video is incredibly relatable to other Among Us gamers who have been similarly caught out.
There does not seem to be any stopping Among Us in its domination of the video game world. Knocking creative sparks in all walks of life have been well and truly fanned by the social deduction game.
In the future, hopefully ReTrEx will not run out of emergency meeting uses again. Although that said, it is nice to have someone else take the fall on behalf of all the other Among Us gamers, and allow them to use these experiences to enhance their own in game knowledge. Sometimes the needs of the many truly do outweigh the needs of the few.
Among Us is available for PC, iOS, and Android
