Why the game doesn't instantly show on my phone after extraction? I see nothing but files. I click on those but nothing. How do I play the? Game now? This really sucks. (Rude ppl mind your own brain if you cannot help, move on)
If you want to play it on your phone you have to download the game from your device's app store. The Google Play Store for Android, or the App Store for iPhone. The version here is for Windows, meaning it's for a desktop computer or laptop running Windows.
That depends on which Linux distribution you're using. Are you using Ubuntu or are you using something else? If you're not sure, you can check by searching your computer for "info" or "system information" and something will probably come up. You could also type "lsb_release -a" in a terminal, without the quotes, and press enter. Did you buy the game?
To update the game from itch.io, download the new version the same way you downloaded the game before.
If you're logged in and you bought the game here, it will say "You own this game" at the top of the page. Click the download button right below that and it'll take you to your download page. Download the game, extract the files, and replace the old game files on your computer with the new ones.
If you want the game to update automatically, use the Steam key on the download page and add the game to Steam, or use the itch.io app.
Just go to your download page and download the game again. Once you have bought it, you can download it as many times as you want, including the new versions.
comon men people are asking begging for a vice chat in the game . no discord no.in among us people like me are begging for years now but to we recive it no we dont.if u dont want to added thats fin but u will los my dowload my trust . and i say it once more time plz inersloft add a speaker in among us
"How do I extract the file from the zip?" - Right click on it, and select, "EXTRACT ALL"
"How do I start the game?" - Double click on "Among Us" or "Among Us.exe"
"Can I run this on a Mac or a Chromebook?" - No. You would need a windows emulator
"Why isn't the demo working?" - The demo is meant to be used on android devices, such as tablets or phones. You can also get it on iOS via the play store.
"Why do I have no pets" - You have to buy pets from the steam store.
"Why is this game not free?!" - Because of how there are no advertisements, it can't be free. Among us on mobile is able to be free because of how they can use ads, but Unity doesn't support ads on computers, so it can't be done. Therefore, they made it so you need to pay money, because they lost out on you giving them money with ads.
"How do I get the steam key?" - It will show up on the download page, alternatively, buy it from steam
"I can't buy pets or skins!" - This is only available on the steam release. Follow the previous question for installation instructions.
"How do I update?" - Download the files again. Alternatively, use the steam release, which auto updates.
"You should add..." - No, you're not funny, or original. The devs do not read this comment stream often, and will not see your idea. Tell them on twitter.
"How do I mod the game like socks?" - This is not built into the game, or supported. Look around on the internet for answers, this is not your place to ask.
"I FOUND A BUG I HATE THE GAME" - Wow, thanks. Report it to them on twitter!
"It keeps saying that I disconnected from the server!" - Yes, that is what happens when you disconnect from the server when your internet connection drops or the servers are overloaded. Try waiting a few minutes.
"They need to get better servers" - Sure, you can finance that.
"They should make it for Mac or Chromebook" - Both of those computers have a more "locked down" nature, which makes it harder to run. It is possible for them to release for mac, but chromebook would be really hard to do.
"Why are there so many cheaters. I met a cheater!" - This is because networking is hard business, and it is very hard to keep cheaters out while keeping people in.
"I deleted the files and my save is still there wtf is going on" - This is because the save data is stored in %appdata%\..\LocalLow\Innersloth\Among Us. If that is too hard for you, just keep it there.
"Can I change the keybinds?" - Sorry, no. You can try to remap the keys, but I would recommend just getting used to it.
A PSA:
I am so sorry for the people who are going to buy the game, and then get scared off by these idiots who yell about their easily fixable problem.
If you found this, and it is buried deep in the comments, please copy and paste it to the front again, I don't want people with issues ranting in the comments anymore.
If this helped you, please let me know in the comments! I love to hear from people who I help!

A actual, honest review:
For the people who are considering buying the game, I highly recommend it. It is better with friends, but I really think that having this game is so much fun, and I recommend it to everyone. As a crewmate, the game is difficult as you try to catch the culprit. As an imposter, it is amazing, as you have to think up alibis for yourself. 10/10, great game
HOW DO YOU UPDATE?! I spent my own money on this game and i cant even update it. This website and game platform is sketchy and I'm regreting buying it from here should've made a steam acct or gone anywhere but here. DON'T BUY OFF HERE buy off Steam No one can update from here. You also have to do some sketchy File extract this is very sketchy and dont buy from here its official but absoutly horrible
Just redownload the .zip file and that's it, yeah sure steam auto updates it but buying the game here actually helps more, why are you even claiming this kind of things? like what the hell? File excract is normal, not "sketchy" aswell as the first place it the game was published. If you don't know how to do something so easy it's your problem
if you go to steam or create an account there's a pin that came with game when you bought it and put that in the game redeem game area and it should be self explanatory from there

The version here is for Windows, meaning it's for a desktop computer or laptop running Windows.
Because the game is free on phone -_- is it that hard to... open the play store and... look for the game?
I can't play this on linux!
This game is designed for Windows, but it runs great on Linux through Wine
how do I install wine?
That depends on which Linux distribution you're using. Are you using Ubuntu or are you using something else? If you're not sure, you can check by searching your computer for "info" or "system information" and something will probably come up. You could also type "lsb_release -a" in a terminal, without the quotes, and press enter.
Did you buy the game?
I am using debian on a raspberry py.
