Among Us-Style Social Deduction Gets Fantasy Twist In Eville
Developer VestGames and indie publisher Versus Evil recently unleashed new information about Eville, the Among Us-like social deduction adventure whose fantasy twist will come to PC via Steam sometime this year. Versus Evil is no strange to the ongoing social deduction craze given its 2021 release of First Class Trouble, another Among Us-inspired title that pits passengers on a luxury spaceship against a rogue AI.
Indie developer Innersloth originally released Among Us on mobile devices and PC in 2018, inviting players to take part in an experience that turned everyone into a suspect. The title received little in the way of widespread attention at launch but went mainstream in 2020 thanks to popular Twitch streamers giving it a platform. Unsurprisingly, a litany of copycat experiences has followed in Among Us' wake, some more successful than others. And it seems the social deduction genre is only getting its feet wet. In the following months, those interested in the genre can expect something a bit more fantastical to hit the Among Us-style scene.
