- Once the room is created, if it is private, it will have a 3-letter code that you can see at the bottom of the screen.
- Share the code with your friends or family so that they can enter the server of the room you have made.
- You can start the game when everyone has entered or at any time you want after having a minimum of 4 players inside by clicking on the button "START".
- If the room is public, you must follow the same steps, only that it is not necessary for other users to enter a password to enter, so any player from anywhere in the world will have the possibility to play with you.
- Once the waiting room is full, you will press “START”, And if the servers of Among Us allow it, the game will begin.
Join a game
This is as simple as the previous one, only that you will not have control of the moment in which the games will start, so you must be very vigilant.
To enter a room you will have to follow the following steps:
- Open the application whether you have it on your PC or mobile.
- Go to the option "online"
- Select the second option "Find Game"If you want to enter a public game, or enter"Private”, For a private game. If you have chosen the last option, you will have to wait for the creator of the room to provide you with the access password so that you can join the game.
- If you decided to join a public game, you will have to select one of the dozens of rooms that will appear on the screen.
- Before entering one, you will have the possibility to choose the type of game you want to join, selecting the map, the number of imposters, and the language of the chat.
When the game starts in Among Us
Once you have entered one, you will be with the rest of the players in a small closed booth with a laptop in the center. You can use this to change your appearance.
But you must be very careful, since the creator of the room can start the game at any time.
When this happens, a small sign will appear at the bottom of the screen with a countdown that will indicate the exact moment when the game will start.
When the counter reaches zero, the screen will go black and then you will appear at the side of the table where you can call emergency meetings.
There the game will have already started.
