Not for the first time this year, an unexpected indie hit has become overrun with cheaters. Fall Guys had its fair share of cheaters following mainstream success, and now the developer of Among Us is dealing with a similar problem.
A swift look at the social deduction game's Reddit page reveals swathes of complaints from players that they're running into cheaters. Sometimes it's people using more lowkey methods such as using Discord to tell their friends who killed them. More often than not, though, it's because someone is using a mod menu. They're woefully easy to come across, too. Several I found come for free and offer things such as the ability to kill without a cool down, super speed, and the ability to kill the imposter or guarantee you can play as one. Yikes.
If you need any reassurance, though, InnerSloth is looking into it. As Kotaku reports, the team is putting multiple features in place so they can attack the problem "from multiple angles so it can get better in many ways hopefully all at once".
