Among Us fans recently came up with many interesting and new thrilling modes for the game. Murder, She Wrote, is one of the latest modes introduced by fans, and the title is totally inspired by the American crime drama television series originally released on September 30, 1984.
In this article, we take a look at the new set of rules, format, and other in-game settings that are necessary to alter in Among Us.
How to play the Murder, She Wrote mode in Among Us?
Note: The Murder, She Wrote mode in Among Us is only to be played with friends and not random players. This mode is unofficial, so hosts will have to officiate their games to ensure everyone is playing it right.
General Rules
-
- Impostors can sabotage the map
- The imposter has to blend in with other members.
- After the game starts, pretend like you are doing tasks.
- The only person that can use the chat after reporting a body is who reported.
- It only changes the way players interact with each other.
- Crewmates can fix the sabotages.
- Crewmates need to finish all their tasks as soon as possible.
- After a dead body is reported, no one is allowed to answer any questions.
- Only the cremate reporting the body can answer all the questions.
- Every player can ask the questions, but only the person who reported the dead body can respond.
Now, let us take a look into the in-game settings of the custom Murder, She Wrote mode.
In-game settings:
Recommended Settings for Murder She Wrote Mode are:
- Player Speed – 1.5x
- Crewmate Vision – 1.0x
- Impostor Vision – 1.0x
- Kill Cooldown – 30 seconds
- Kill Distance – Short
- Visual Tasks – On
- Common tasks – 2
- Long tasks – 3
- Short tasks – 5
- Emergency Meetings: 1
Depending on the level of the other players around, you may want to change some settings. As this game is more in line with the original mode, impostors may end up having too much of an advantage, because this time only one person can answer. So, the killer itself might just report the body and create a history and call it a day. That also means that a poor crewmate that reports right after a sabotage may end up on a very difficult situation and even floating around on space.
This mode in Among Us is super fun to play with friends as only the person who reported the body could respond to the following questions. Hence, the other crewmates are led by the vision of that person, which may be deceiving or true vice-versa. It either assists the impostors in their gameplay or paves a difficult way for them as the person reporting states what he/she had witnessed during the game.
