How to Play Among Impostors

Among Impostors takes the .io growth formula and makes your size literal: you are not one impostor but a group of them, and food collected around the map turns into more. A bigger crowd is your score, your strength and the thing everyone else in the lobby wants to take off you.

Being outnumbered is the danger, and the game is explicit about it — players with more impostors than you will steal yours, so avoiding a larger group is a survival decision rather than cowardice. That flips the usual .io calculation: growing gives you the option to attack, but it also makes you the target everyone else can see coming.

Three bonuses are worth fighting for. The protection shield blocks other players, speed shoes let you run fast, and the impostor bonus increases your numbers directly. Around that sit 15 different impostors to choose from, unlocked or strengthened with the money you earn at the end of each game and through daily bonuses — so time spent in the lobby feeds into what you can bring to the next one.

Among Impostors Tips & Tricks

  • Food collected around the map converts into more impostors, so your crowd size is a direct readout of how well you have foraged.
  • If another player outnumbers you they can steal your impostors, which makes retreating from a larger group the correct play.
  • The protection shield blocks other players outright — it is the most valuable pickup when you are already large.
  • Speed shoes let you outrun a bigger crowd, which is often more useful than fighting one.
  • The impostor bonus raises your numbers directly, so contesting it is worth more than gathering ordinary food.
  • Money earned at the end of each game plus daily bonuses unlock and strengthen characters from a roster of 15.

Is Among Impostors Unblocked at School?

Yes. Among Impostors runs entirely inside your browser tab as an HTML5 game, so there is nothing to download, install or unzip and no plugin such as Flash or Java is required. That matters on a school or office network, because the filters used on those networks usually block installers and app stores rather than ordinary web pages. It works the same way on a school Chromebook, an iPad or a phone as it does on a desktop — the game adapts to the screen you open it on. If the page loads for you, the game will run.
