I don’t remember having a game from itch not download for me - and even the buyers who complained here have managed to download it. My guess would be that it has to do with your browser.
Under the assumption that you actually wanted to play the game you’ve bought: Have you tried a different browser? Or tried using the itch.io app? ( https://itch.io/app )
i downloaded among us on my ipad 4 but when i go and open the game, a white screen comes up with the word "among" enlarged and then exits the app. does the game even work on this ipad or is this model too old?
If you read the FAQ, you will find out how to get a refund.

Hey! I was having trouble too, but all you have to do is download the file, and then click it and put extract. You then open the newer file which is the one that got extracted/unzipped and there should be the among us game, click it and add it to your taskbar!

you need to run it with wine or proton (if a mac version exists) because they only provide windows downloads even though unity makes it easy to build for mac and linux
Depends on the security your school has on the Chromebook. If you can download PlayStore apps, you should be able to download it from the Google PlayStore.
ok so go under where you would change your skin color and find the "pets" category. There should be a small white coin on the left next to your character. click on it!

i think you can run wine or proton on a chromebook if your chromebook is x86 and you can executable linux binaries and install DEBs then have wine or proton run the exe
or download it from the playstore if your chromebook is arm
I have a thinkpad and I bought it what you do is create an itch.io account then you click buy and put in your credit info then you click download then go in your files and extract it then you can open it
If you're using a mac, understand that there's no mac port to begin with lol
You're best bet would be PlayOnMac or Nox if there's a mac port for nox that is.
And at least describe your problem in detail along with what platform you are trying to play the game on. This information helps us to at least understand what you are trying to stay. Because it's as easy as un-ziping the folder then clicking the application to run the game and get the game going. it's really that simple lol.
So unless you're trying to play on Mac, understand that there's no mac port to begin with :P
For the love of god read the files before buying it. So many people are calling this game a scam because they are on Macs, but the game clearly states it’s only for Windows. Read. The. Page.
Actually Dani didn't steal their game.He always says in his last part of his video that it was for entertainment purposes it's not to meant to take anything from among us team.But I think they will not give permission because if they gave the permission many people will go and start playing Dani's instead of really among us(Dani is popular so his game will also go popular if he released)
I don't know if these were bugs or hacks but in a server at the start of the game the lights were off and if someone turned them back on they would turn off again, and then when it stopped the door to electrical was closed for way longer then they should be. And then the meetings skipped themselves for no reason.
Edit: A few seconds ago I played in a server and someone named "abass" was exploiting, someone caught them and called a meeting but they changed the votes so someone else got voted off, afterwards they killed me, the person that caught them, and that persons friend all at the same time. You should really add a report option so it's easier to report hackers.
I would like to give you an idea, which I believe until you have already thought about it, of a form of game communication that you also have in many other moba style games: it would be much more practical to be able to communicate by audio, typing takes time, sometimes the time is short, 30 seconds, sometimes the keyboard takes a long time to rise, the keyboard disappears on its own, maybe that doesn’t make much difference for those who play on the computer, but with the sudden growth of the game, many people who play are for the mobile version, so I think that would help a lot in the gameplay. a suggestion, a button to chat the moment the discussion started, the player would have the option to just listen and not speak, leave the microphone off, and as soon as the discussion was over, everything would be muted automatically. so, that's it, it would be much easier in such a way, thank u
That's not possible sorry. Only possible if you're using the same platform. I suspect once they implement an account system this should be possible but at the current state nope.
This only works if you're using the same account i.e when you get a new phone simply using the same playstore account as you did in your previous device, if you're on a new computer use the same steam account as your previous computer, on your new iOS use the same app store account as your previous iOS device and you'll always have your purchases with you.
someone went on the purchase website and, putting my email address in the "purchase as gift" option, bought among us as a gift (I'm on Windows) and there aren't any among us files or any emails even mentioning a gift. i didnt have an itch account at the time of the purchase but it says that you don't need one in order to receive the gift.
Consider the possibility that your friend misspelled your email. It’s also possible that they made a mistake and actually didn’t buy the game. They can check with whatever service they used: If their service didn’t bill them for the game that is a strong indicator that something went wrong on your friend’s end… ;)
it's possible that they misspelled my email but i said it multiple times before they made the purchase. also the friend says they were immediately billed after the purchase was made.
Well, than all that’s left is to wait for support to get back to them - and them to get back to you. I wish you and your friend that this resolves soon.
You can check when the game was last updated, so if it was updated recently you'd know that it's on the latest version. I think a good way to check this is compare the last update on mobile (mind you steam and itch.io should update a lot sooner than any other platform, Android being the 2nd fastest to be updated and then iOS dead last as always LOL) and see if they dates link up and that's probably a good way to check.
I can't remember if steam indicates when the game was updated, so if there is a way to check when the last time the steam version was updated then that's actually more accurate way of comparing the update times to see if either are on the same version or not.

Try using playonmac which lets you run windows programs on a mac
Refer to my post here for an in-depth explanation.

You're Welcome! Have Fun!
A MESSAGE TO LINUX AND MAC USERS:
the only version for PC is for Windows but that doesn't mean you can't play among us on linux or mac
LINUX USERS: use wine or proton
MAC USERS: playonmac or wine
Edit: don't forget to extract. the zip file isn't a portable executable...
Wine sadly isn't compatible with the most recent MacOS :(
Just wanted to say: Thank you for your efforts, niceperson!
Bluestacks too for Mac
You can also use bluestacks, among us is free there
I downloaded it on windows now how do I actually play it

I paid for this game on a MacBook but don't know where to find it to start playing. Please help.
me either im legit crying because im so stressed out about it.
you need to run it with wine or proton (if a mac version exists) because they only provide windows downloads even though unity makes it easy to build for mac and linux
Refer to my post here for some help on this topic. ;)
how do you get among us on a school cromebook????
Depends on the security your school has on the Chromebook. If you can download PlayStore apps, you should be able to download it from the Google PlayStore.

not sure if it comes in a (.zip) format but try extracting it or just buy it on steam

HI. I tried what you types but It didn't work.
Hey! What type of computer do you have? Mac, Windows, etc. Just tell me all the steps you did and I'll see what you did wrong
do u get the clothes for free if u buy it on pc?
you get certain customization for free but most of the customization are bought via packs on steam or downloadable content in game!
can i get a refund cause i was dumb and didnt see that it only works on windows and i got it on chromebook
i think you can run wine or proton on a chromebook if your chromebook is x86 and you can executable linux binaries and install DEBs then have wine or proton run the exe
or download it from the playstore if your chromebook is arm
does this not work on a chromebook
Yes it works on chrome book
if you are running windows on your chrome book then yes!
use wine/proton
or download from the playstor
horrible i want to play on my chromebook bc i dont have google play and it says not compatible with this device i am rlly mad.
You might have to install windows 8 or 10 first to download it because that’s what my friend did.
But i have a chromebook it says not compatibleatible when i try thanks tho :(
use wine/proton with linux mode
Hello! I would like to learn how to get Among Us on my Thinkpad, as I just bought it.
I have a thinkpad and I bought it what you do is create an itch.io account then you click buy and put in your credit info then you click download then go in your files and extract it then you can open it
can you make this game compatible to chrome
It is all u have to do is download windows 8 or 10 on your chromebook
use wine/proton with linux mode enabled (or whatever its called)
I bought the game where do I start playing help
If you're using a mac, understand that there's no mac port to begin with lol
You're best bet would be PlayOnMac or Nox if there's a mac port for nox that is.
And at least describe your problem in detail along with what platform you are trying to play the game on. This information helps us to at least understand what you are trying to stay. Because it's as easy as un-ziping the folder then clicking the application to run the game and get the game going. it's really that simple lol.
So unless you're trying to play on Mac, understand that there's no mac port to begin with :P
do you know how to update the game if you bought among us here on the inner sloth page and not on steam
You just have to re-download the game and delete the old one.
Oh go to files then click extract all then you can open it
Can you add a hide and seak mode to the game
The crewmates goal is to complete all tasks while avoiding the impostor(s). The imposter(s) goal is just to kill every crewmate
The rules is
no reporting dead bodys
You can't vote out the impostor(s)
You cant call an emergency meeting
You can't sabotage
To add more difficulty for the crewmates you can
Turn off the lights or disable comms
so you just... stand around and get killed? Lmao this idea is dumb
no you dont stand a round you run from the impostor
For the love of god read the files before buying it. So many people are calling this game a scam because they are on Macs, but the game clearly states it’s only for Windows. Read. The. Page.
they should use wine/proton or playonmac
Thank you for saying that out loud, so that others don’t have to. ;)
Thankyou for this game. I found this game on Youtube . likes for among us 😍😘👍😊😀
Yo diría que hagan algo con los que entre y salen ni bien empezó la partida
Qe se pueda hablar en la partida y no usar discord porque hacen equipos
Qe pongan una especie de rango para ver quién es el mejor
GIVE DANI PERMITION PLZ -
Yes please give him permission
They wont, they just wont because dani stole their game
Actually Dani didn't steal their game.He always says in his last part of his video that it was for entertainment purposes it's not to meant to take anything from among us team.But I think they will not give permission because if they gave the permission many people will go and start playing Dani's instead of really among us(Dani is popular so his game will also go popular if he released)
really, whats wrong Innersloth? just give dani permission to upload among us 3d already! im wanna play already among us 3d!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
yea it will be really fun but it can be a loss for among us also.I really wants to play Dani 3d among us
I don't know if these were bugs or hacks but in a server at the start of the game the lights were off and if someone turned them back on they would turn off again, and then when it stopped the door to electrical was closed for way longer then they should be.

Sounds like hacks. Not much can be done, you're gonna have to ban them yourself or make a new lobby.
Alrighty.
thanks innersloth huge fan after playing the game
ho
I love among us!!!!
It won't let me buy anything it says loading failed: purchasing unavailable and I don't know why but I want to buy stuff!!!
Maybe you can try get the game on steam? The steam version has purchasable cosmetics. Itch.io sadly doesn't support DLC AFAIK.
I would like to give you an idea, which I believe until you have already thought about it, of a form of game communication that you also have in many other moba style games: it would be much more practical to be able to communicate by audio, typing takes time, sometimes the time is short, 30 seconds, sometimes the keyboard takes a long time to rise, the keyboard disappears on its own, maybe that doesn’t make much difference for those who play on the computer, but with the sudden growth of the game, many people who play are for the mobile version, so I think that would help a lot in the gameplay. a suggestion, a button to chat the moment the discussion started, the player would have the option to just listen and not speak, leave the microphone off, and as soon as the discussion was over, everything would be muted automatically. so, that's it, it would be much easier in such a way, thank u
Is there a way I can transfer my in game purchases from what I purchased on mobile over to my PC?
That's not possible sorry. Only possible if you're using the same platform. I suspect once they implement an account system this should be possible but at the current state nope.
This only works if you're using the same account i.e when you get a new phone simply using the same playstore account as you did in your previous device, if you're on a new computer use the same steam account as your previous computer, on your new iOS use the same app store account as your previous iOS device and you'll always have your purchases with you.

Tell the person who bought it to reach out to support with the email they used to do the purchase: https://itch.io/support
he already has
Consider the possibility that your friend misspelled your email. It’s also possible that they made a mistake and actually didn’t buy the game. They can check with whatever service they used: If their service didn’t bill them for the game that is a strong indicator that something went wrong on your friend’s end… ;)

Does the recent update come with this game because I know that on steam the update is there but is it available on itch.io?
