What Parents Need to Know about Among Us
Published 28th October 2020
A free online safety guide on Among Us.
Among Us is one of the most popular games of 2020. A space-themed ‘social deduction game’ where 4-10 players take on the guise of Crewmates, who must complete various tasks around their spaceship, while randomly selected Imposters must try their hardest to sabotage the others’ efforts. The Imposters have to remain undetected through rounds of voting to win. While Among Us is a largely safe game, it’s still prudent to be aware of any potential risks young ones might encounter when playing.
In the guide, you'll find tips on a number of potential risks such as hacking, mild violence and inappropriate language.
