Among Us is the hit asymmetrical survival game that offers boatloads of fun with its intrigue and mechanics of deception. In this game, players are divided into Crewmates and Impostors: The former must run around the map completing specific tasks in order to win, while the latter has to blend in and slowly pick them off one by one without exposing their real identity. In this manner, every match is a chaotic mess of Crewmates running around to and fro, with the Impostors trying to sabotage rooms, isolate them, and kill them when the opportunity presents itself.

Most of the fun in this game comes from player interactions—players can chat during emergency meetings to discuss who is the most suspicious and who to kick out, while the Impostor can also throw shade at the others to misdirect and confuse everyone else. However, as a Crewmate, running around completing tasks can also be exciting, especially since you never know when the Impostor can walk by and kill you. Learn more about how to optimize your Among Us experience on PC.

In this sense, as a Crewmate, it’s important to learn about the different tasks in every map in order to speed up your mission and win every match. Moreover, as an Impostor, knowing about every task can also come in handy as it will let you blend in better and protect your identity. In this article in particular, we’re going to talk about the different tasks in the Among Us’ third map, Polus.

These are all the Polus tasks in Among Us. As you can see, this one is a bit smaller than Mira HQ and The Skeld, but the different rooms are mostly detached from each other and players must travel across the dark courtyard to get from point to point. Moreover, with the exception of some windowed rooms, most of the zones in this map are isolated from the walkways, which make them ideal spots for ambushes.

In cases like these, where death could come at any moment, it’s ideal to know about all the tasks on the map and how to complete them in record time. Luckily, with this guide, you’re now ready to head into Polus and carry your team to victory!
