1 - About Among Us Maps And Tasks Guide

There are 3 types of tasks in Among Us: Short Tasks, Long Tasks and Common Tasks. Some of them are also considered Visual Tasks (people who do Visual Tasks are 100% not impostors).

There is no way to be sure about the certain length of "short" and "long" tasks - some tasks are considered "long" on certain maps and "short" on others. Common Tasks are assigned to the whole crew - everyone would have the same list of common tasks.
