I could think of another variation of this game to make it more easy for younger children is that:
1. You play this game in 2 teams, players vs killers
2. You let both team do an English task, then let them Roll the Dice
3. You put a TICK for players according to the number of the dice on the Rocket, and a Cross vice versa for Killers
4. Which team got all the parts first win a round, of time up and if they have more parts of the ship (fixed or destroyed) they win.

I am amazed at how good you are at turning basically anything into a super fun game! Thank you so much for accommodating my request!!! I will 100% add this to my stockpile of games I use from your channel. The D&D spin-off was an enormous hit, so I’m predicting this game will also generate a lot of excitement. Nicely done!

What a fantastic game! I had fun using this game in my classroom. I very appreciate you guys creating amazing games for the ESL communities! Thank you!

Thank you professor Carson. This idea is amazing. If I were a student I would be very happy to have a class that made me study with a game like this one.

What a smart adaptation of the game Among Us! I love how you retain many of the features of the original version while still being able to create your own rules – many of them are also very meaningful. I can't wait to see how this is going to work out in my class. Again, your idea is awesome. Very clever and creative! Thank you for sharing it with us.

aaa thank you so much for your ideas! I have to teach about tenses on Monday and it's bit boring without game so I am so happy to find this game! Thanks fot your ideas! I've been fan of this channel for a long time and it always give me inspiration to make teaching learning process better.

Awesome video.. gonna use this in my class. You can even switch it up for math or science

[adamvalicek]

Guys, great game! Thanks for your work.. :-)

[MK-pkzw]

Wow, a really creative version of the game! I think I'll try putting numbers next to students' names so that the killer can just show the number of the student he want's to eliminate. Should be enough to deter anyone trying to cheat :)

[Bellamg]

Great game. Really attractive for the students

[DuyNguyen-wdcn]

Your ideas have always been so appealing, by the way, I cannot seem to find any magnets to work in this case.

[lyudmylashcherbatko]

Seems like another great game from you, Guys 😉 but I have a question ( and am wondering why nobody asked it 🤔): when the killer makes a mistake and someone notices that, it's obvious who is is the killer. What to do next? Is the game continued?

[lucassebastianjardelaranci]

Anything I can replace magnets with if my board is not magnetic?

[moonzz]

very nice seeing ur games!!!! can I see u guys on TikTok?

[望望-qe]

What if the killer doesn’t make any mistakes at all? How do others guess who the killer is?

[auraleedivinus]

As a teacher myself, I find this appealing. Thank you! I do have a question though. It seems that students who are already out of the game have a massive downtime of not doing anything, especially the first one who got killed/voted out of the game early on. I know that also happens in the game (they can even spectate on whoever the killer is during the "closed eyes" part, assuming they don't spoil to the others who the killer is). What do you suggest on what they should do during this downtime?

[ZodiusXx]

So what do the students who die do? Seems like their education kinda stops at that point

[spears]

We need real students in your videos pls 😥 in order to understand so much better the game

[hutch]

Any game that takes 17 minutes to explain (to NATIVE speakers, no less) is too complicated to use for ESL in my opinion. But regardless of that, don't TELL us how the game is played, SHOW us. Have someone else there to play the role of a student. Remember, this has got to be demonstrated to a class of kids who don't understand English that well.
Also, using the term 'killer' with kids is not something I would advocate.
