Wiki History Listing


V1 A social intrigue party game developed and published in 2018 by InnerSloth, in which players are randomly divided into [[Crewmate (among us)|]]s and [[Impostor (among us)|]]s. The Crewmates must attempt to complete all required tasks and/or expose the Impostors, while the secret Impostors must [[murder]] or frame the Crewmates or sabotage the Crewmates' efforts.

Although released in 2018 as a relatively little-known game, it had a sudden boom in popularity in September 2020, with regular concurrent numbers of well over 250,000, reaching widespread [[meme|memetic]] status on the Internet. The game has a low entry barrier and cross-platform play, allowing users across all devices to enjoy the up-to-15-multiplayer experience. Also notable for its dark yet cute style and slapstick cartoon violence.

The game would later spawn a wide variety of post-ironic [[meme|memes]] in 2021, usually revolving around a parody of Stonetoss comics, a photoshopped image of [[Jerma985]], anything that looks like the in-game characters and/or having the name sounded like "Among Us/Amogus" or "Sus", or simply using the in-game character itself as a "punchline".
