First Class Trouble (PC) resembles the Steam hit Among Us, but forgoes the playful comic look. In asymmetrical multiplayer, you play as either a killer robot or a human, trying to survive on a cruise ship. The game is free on Epic until January 19.
What is First Class Trouble? First Class Trouble takes over the popular game concept of Among Us, where one or more traitors attempt to sabotage a group of players.
On a cruise ship, the ship’s artificial intelligence has gone haywire and is now sucking up the oxygen. As a human, you must try to reach the core of the AI in order to defeat it.
In your way are “Personoids”: killer robots that look like humans and are controlled by other players. They try to prevent humans from escaping and to kill them.
Using the environment chat, hints, and arguments, you must try to find and eliminate the saboteurs, or cleverly deflect suspicion onto others to wipe out the humans.
Here you can see the trailer for First Class Trouble:
First Class Trouble is well received: On Steam, the game has an overall rating of 79% positive reviews. The recent reviews are even 89% positive.
First Class Trouble is not the same as Among Us, but has many similarities. A major difference is that you never really know how many Personoids are still alive. So you always have to decide whether you have eliminated everyone or if someone else needs to die – just to be sure.
First Class Trouble is particularly good when you have a group of 5-6 friends to play with. It’s less fun alone or when you have to find groups. You spend so much time in queues and often have the bad luck of ending up in toxic groups.
