Prologue - Get Around, Get Around
These chapters will show very basic ways on how to play and make the use of some of the mechanics, tools and lingo.

Don't Forget To

Basics - How To Walk
The Waiting Room

Here's where one can enter a game, these are the lobbies. To start playing, go click on one of the names, after clicking on one, you will be taken to what I call the "Waiting Room", this is were you and the other gamers are waiting for others to join, before the host starts the game.


This is what the "waiting room" appears as.
Taste The Rainbow - Color Guide
Now please learn and address these colors by their actual names, like it's Cyan, not "Light Blue" (Unless, you're part of the Diet Revolution).
Quick Chat Wheel
Quick Chat is one of the modes of communications that one can use in the Emergency Meetings, unlike Free Chat, it is only work safe dialogue to debate of who is Sus.
I am not good at it.


Cheat Sheet

This is guide consists of a map of the "Quick Chat"' feature.

Giving The Boot - Reporting Bad Behavior
See that "Boot Button" that's below the "Talk"/"Dialogue" button at the upper right hand corner? That boot button is to kick out cheaters, hackers, and others that are severely disrupting the game.



Tip: Sometimes the button gets stuck, so press/click on it twice.
Warping There And Back
During a gameplay round, a cool trick to do, if one got disconnected, just click on the White arrow that's next to the "Private" button, to return to the action. This also works for "Public Lobbies".


Tip:

  • Don't panic and retype in the lobby password, the game will either forget the password/ that you were there or tell you to wait until the match is over and ask the host for permission to be let back in.
  • If that doesn't work just retype the password after five minutes and/or wait for the host's permission to be let back in.
    Tools - Ya have to take a picture of the lobby and it's code, for this to work.
The Coup d'État Fire Extinguisher


This is a weird fail safe that InnerSloth gave the gamers, mainly the Guests , to use against toxic Host(s). All you need is three votes, during Emergency Meeting .

Only use this fire extinguisher when the Host is:

  • Toxic
  • Cheater
  • A troll
  • Insanely out of bounds
Lobby Set Ups
Once you're there in the "Host Game" mode,
We're here, because of the "Color changing tutorial" from the last chapter.

this were the magic of designing your very own lobby, like selecting the map, number of Imposters, and other things happen.


Once you're done setting up. Select and/or click on the "Private" button at the bottom of the screen.


Last but not least, send the super secret code to your pals in Discord and other PM-ing means.
Super Secret Lobbies
Once your family member(s) or pals give you a code, you enter it in the "Enter Code".

Note: Most of the guys that use these lobbies are serious gamers that want to avoid toxicity, insanity, kids that don't know any better, and whatever Noodle Incidents that comes out of the Public Lobbies. Unless, you're playing in a Private Lobby, your encounter chances of seeing the serious gamers are next to nil.

Second Note: If ya see a Cyan (or Aqua or Turquoise, whatever you want to call my main color) with the name of Kaletile, accompanied by a Squig in the Public Lobbies. There's a huge chance that it's not me, due to "There's a million Kaletiles." (In Among Us, gamers can have the same Gamertag, if they're using the buildth in name generator).
No-Visor, No-Visor, We Will Make You One Of Us
One of the reasons why it's better to play on PC is this baby right here. Mainly, mods and what one can do with them.


I'm "cosplaying" as Aiden. But bare in mind, I don't want to touch any Among Us mods that I see in the Play Store nor do I know how to properly download a mod, so I can't give expertise on how to get one and set it up, since I don't wanna risk getting becoming a vessel to some unholy entity or accidentally get someone stuck in an actual creepypasta.

Go to r/AmongUs to help find the perfect mods for this.
Outdated Info
These chapters are about stuff that gotten rearrange or outright deleted, due to the latest updates.
Wanted: Missing Friends

It's very tricky to find lost friends once one disconnects from the lobby or a glitch happens, and I hope you're able to find them. Until, InnerSloth adds a friendlist, these tips have to do for now.

During a gameplay round, a cool trick to do, if one got disconnected, just click on the White arrow that's next to the "Private" button, to return to the action. This also works for "Public Lobbies".

Another way to get clues of how to find lost friends is to take screenshots of the lobby in the first second, before the game begins (I prefer to take screenshots after the first round, so, I can get a feel of what the gamers are like).

Android/iOS - Use the phone's camera to take a screenshot of the lobby.

PC
-
One of the ways to not be separated, there's less Lost Friends in PC and Console.

Steam - Go to your profile>Friends> Recently played with.

BTS - Not The Kpop Band, Ya Bakas! - AU - Game On - Gameplay Mechanics
Many of these stuff came form the "Kaletile/Cyan's Skeld Manual", which is why this guide sounds so similar. I am trying to polish and clean the Skeld guide that I chop it off into "smaller" bites.
