How To Be Detective In Among Us

Among Us features a Detective role that allows you to investigate deaths and identify the impostor. This guide walks you through enabling the Detective role and using its investigative tools to narrow down suspects and solve the mystery of who the impostor is.

Enabling the Detective Role

To start using the Detective role in Among Us, you first need to make sure that the role is turned on in your game settings. This must be enabled before the game begins.

Understanding Detective Notes

After somebody gets killed in the game, you will start receiving detective notes. These notes are crucial to your investigation and allow you to record important information about the death. In these notes, you can document details such as where the person died, where their body was found, and your suspicions about who the impostor might be.

Adding Suspects to Your List

As a Detective, you can choose people you are suspicious of and add them to your suspect list. To add someone to your suspects, simply press Q while selecting a player. Each death allows you to add up to three suspects to your suspect list based on your observations and deductions.

Matching Time and Location to Identify the Impostor

The key to solving the case is cross-referencing the time and location of deaths with player locations. If a player’s location at the time of death matches where a body was found, they could be the impostor. However, if their alibi shows they were in a different location when the death occurred, you can eliminate them as a suspect. For example, if someone died at Communications but a suspect was at Electrical at that time, that suspect cannot be the impostor.

Conclusion

By enabling the Detective role, carefully documenting deaths in your notes, building a suspect list, and matching player locations with death times, you can effectively solve Among Us mysteries and identify the impostor. Use your investigative skills, trust the evidence, and help your crew eliminate the threat.
