Among Us! offers two types of role playing: crew members and impostors. These two roles are competing against each other, and crew members can win the game by either completing all the tasks or by voting out the impostors. Either way, there are a number of things crew member players can do to enhance their chance of winning.

The first thing crew members can easily avoid doing at the early stage of the game is to not conduct tasks away from other people. This is because during this period before the first emergency meeting, the killing time freezing for  imposters is very short. Going away from the group may make yourself an easy target for the killer.

Another strategy is to perform your tasks visibly in front of others. This is a display of your innocence and trustworthiness so that other crew members can see and verify your identity. Meanwhile, it is better to start conducting more complicated tasks that take longer time and harder procedures. It is also important to familiarize oneself with the sequence and locations of different tasks when there are multiple stages involved. In doing so, crew members can check if the task someone just completed matches the corresponding location.

What’s more, there is an often ignored detail that helps to identify a real crew member from an imposter. On the interface of a real crew member, there is a task progress bar. Whenever a real task has been fulfilled by any of the crew members, the bar would proceed on all members’ screen. Therefore, crew members can pay attention to their progress bar whenever they notice someone is doing a task. If no change takes place on the bar, then the person is performing a fake task and therefore is an imposter.

The last tip is to report a witnessed murder at the right timing. Usually people would report and summon emergent meeting right after a murder or body is spotted. However, sometimes the imposter would sabotage the on-going tasks and cause some emergent troubles that postpone the meeting. Therefore, it would be wise to check the task progress before calling for an emergency meeting.
