Among us, the multiplayer does not work

If multiplayer among us doesn't work for you, there are a few things you can try. First, make sure you enter the code correctly if you are trying to join a friend's session. Also, make sure you're on the same network as your friends if you're trying to play local multiplayer. If you receive the " Game not found”, Then try to have another person to host the session. If you get the " Game not found”When attempting to join a public game, wait a few seconds and try again or search for another session to join. A few server issues among us have arisen as the game has grown in popularity, so stay tuned to InnerSloth's Twitter account for updates and fixes.
