One trick I like to use is wait to complete my tasks until the first meeting and then convince people to come as a group for the sake of safety.Īs for imposters, you’ll want to make good use of the space so you can pick off those who wander about. Be mindful of vent locations, as the south portion of the map is generally safer than the north. Be extra careful in the decontamination rooms, as they will seal anyone off from entering or exiting for a short period of time. I recommend always traveling with a friend or a group since it’s so easy to be isolated and killed. To be clear, Polus should only be played if you have around 8-10 people, as the map is almost too difficult for the crewmates due to its sheer size. I recommend keeping this map up if you’re new to ensure you don’t make a costly error. You can see every vent on the map marked in red along with where they can spit you out in green. There are also no vent locations in both the bottom right and bottom left portions of the map. These vents aren’t all interconnected, so you’ll need to plan carefully if you’re an imposter. Similar to MIRA HQ, these decontamination rooms will seal someone in for a few seconds, denying them access until the doors open.Īdditionally, there are twelve vents (which are holes in the ground) on Polus. Polus features 15 rooms, not counting any of the decontamination chambers that are required to go through if you want to enter a structure. This means there’s a lot of ground to cover between rooms, which can be dangerous if you’re a crewmate trying to complete your tasks. The biggest of the three maps in Among Us, Polus allows players to explore both inside and outside an arctic base. We also have the map layouts for MIRA HQ and The Skeld. Here’s a breakdown of Polus’ map, which is the biggest map in Among Us.

Each one comes with their own mini-games and challenges that you’ll need to understand as both the crewmate or imposter. One of the keys to surviving Among Us is a core understanding of the three different maps. This crafts tense scenarios, where people attempt to deflect, accuse, and save themselves from being ejected into space. Among Us encourages people to only talk during specific “Discussion” moments to level the playing field for the imposters. This multiplayer games tasks players with repairing a futuristic base as 1-2 fake crewmates attempt to systematically murder the opposing users. As an added layer of protection, Impostors are always advised to close the door while venting so that Crewmates cannot determine the player's identity using the vents.Have you ever wanted to betray your friends and make them question their trust in you for weeks? If you answered “Yes,” than developer InnerSloth’s Among Usis the game for you.The safest time to use the vents as an Impostor is when there is neither anyone around you nor anyone watching the security cameras.While hidden in a vent, both the Sabotage and the Kill button cooldown timers are paused, which means that Impostors cannot play an entire game hidden from the vents.This raises suspicion for the player using the vents, thus outing them as an impostor. Making sure that they do not come out of a room that no one saw them going into the first place.Keeping in mind that no security cameras are around when the impostor is trying to get into or out of a vent.The most important factors to keep in mind while venting as an impostor in Among Us includes:

However, in Mira HQ, each of the rooms is connected by a unified vent network, making it easier for the impostor to reach any room without ever leaving the vent. Out of the three maps available in Among Us, both The Skeld as well as Polus allows players to use the vent functionality to travel between two or three specific rooms connected with that particular vent route.
