Among Us has been rising steadily in popularity, and almost every second person on the internet is now playing this game. Even though the video game released all the way back in 2018, the internet is only boarding the hype train now. Just as the name suggests, the objective of each match is simple to understand.

There is an imposter among the crewmates whose objective is to kill everyone on the spaceship.

However, the crewmates have the responsibility of finishing up their tasks, all the while trying to deduce which crewmate is the killer. The basics of the game are simple to learn, but they are hard to master. Each match is different from the other in this game, thereby bringing new elements into play every time.

Pets were added to Among Us by the developers to add further customization options. As one would expect, these pets do not provide any sort of competitive advantage to the owner.

However, its always nice to have a dog wagging his tail and looking merry around you, while you complete your tasks or go on a killing spree.

There are a total of ten pets in the game namely: Squiq, Bedcrab, Brainslug, UFO, Dog, Hamster, Mini Crewmate, Robot, Henry and Ellie. Each of these pets look very different from one another. While some of them are adorable, others might seem a little off-putting to Among Us players.

Step#1- Join a Public or Private lobby. (Private lobbies are recommended as you can comfortably make the purchase in-game without hurrying for the match)
