Social Deduction

Best Social Deduction Games on Steam

Social deduction games hide one or more traitors in a group and ask everyone else to work out who is lying before it is too late. They are as much about reading your friends as about the game itself, which makes them the loudest and most memorable thing you can play with a group. On Steam they come with a bonus layer for achievement hunters: role-specific and win-condition achievements that push you to play every side of the table.

1Among Us
Among Us
The game that made the genre a household name: crewmates finish tasks while impostors sabotage and kill, then everyone argues in the meeting. Its achievements cover both roles and its different maps.
