Among Us The Game

Video game “AMONG US” is a trend even in Porn

That Among Us is one of the most popular video games of this year is an undeniable fact and the least surprising considering that it was launched in 2018 by the video game studio InnerSloth, with virtually no one fall back on its existence.

For those who live on another planet, Among Us, is an online multiplayer game that takes place in a space-themed setting, in which players take on one of two roles: Crewmates, and a predetermined number will be Impostors.

The popular game, not only triggered Discord downloads but also triggered themed porn searches on PornHub, one of the leading adult content platforms. As usual, when a game gains such popularity on the web its success permeates other contents; for some reason, this game also impacts searches on pornographic sites.

Among us searches

PornHub revealed at the beginning of October that the searches for ‘Among Us’ on its platform started to increase around September 1st, but it was not until September 16th when they registered almost 700 thousand searches for ‘Among Us’ porn, achieving a total of 4.7 million porn searches in all of September for that video game.

Interesting, but… what’s the game all about!

Well… Among Us its basically a social deduction game, where the main goal of the Impostors is to covertly sabotage and kill the Crewmates before they complete all of their tasks around the map and the Crewmates goal is to identify the Impostors, eliminate them, and complete tasks around the map before they get killed.

Players suspected to be Impostors may be eliminated via a plurality vote, which any player may initiate at any time. Crewmates win if all Impostors are eliminated or all tasks are completed whereas Imposters win if there is an equal number of Impostors and Crewmates, or if a critical sabotage goes unresolved.
