#4 Dumb and Silent mode

This mode is also enjoyable to play with friends in Among Us, as it involves no talking, no chatting, and no means of communication during the gameplay. The in-game settings don't have any necessary tweaks and are set to classic, but players in-game are not allowed to speak a single word. Players' votes will speak for themselves.

#5 Murder, She Wrote mode
