The popularity of the latest indie craze Among Us is hard to ignore. From a little known game released in 2018 based on the Whodunnit premise, full of mystery, backstabbing, and all-around tomfoolery, the title by Innersloth has expanded to all corners of the Internet. Yes, including online p.o.rnography.
Not only fanart, memes, jokes, live-action, and animated parodies have been created to accommodate the game's newfound fame and build another online community, but content that serves "other needs" too. A recent statistic has revealed an explosion in popularity of the game on a rather "well-known" site.

Despite looking as plain as humanoid video game characters can be, with no distinguishing features that make them resemble actual humans, these colorful walking beans have been quite popular on P.o.rnhub, according to a spokesperson of the adult website.
The company claimed that, as Inverse reported, "searches related to the indie game have "skyrocketed" in the last thirty days", and it has been further revealed that "searches for racy Among Us videos began to pick up early in September and peaked on September 16 when nearly 700,000 searches were made that day alone."
Among Us P.o.rn is More Popular Than Overwatch
What's even more baffling is how these walking, task-performing, occasionally murder-y beans have grown more popular than one of the most commonly searched titles when it comes to Rule 34: Overwatch. "[Among Us] amassed 4.7 million searches on the porn site in September and average about 115,000 daily searches", Inverse reported.
This figure is bigger than the usual 100,000 daily searches for the shooter game full of characters designed to be specifically physically appealing, although less than Fortnite which accrued 130,000 hits per day. Among Us is one of the biggest searches on the Internet so it makes sense for the popularity to spread to even adult websites.

When Rule 34 is Pushed to The Limit
As video game-related p.o.rn searches are one of the most popular searches on the Internet, it's normally not strange to see a trending video game getting hits on P.o.rnhub or elsewhere. But they tend to be games where there are many characters and moments that translate very well into more NSFW content.
The rise of Among Us though has less to do with the high-quality graphics of attractive characters but more about pushing the boundaries of Rule 34 to the point of absurdity. If you did not know, Rule 34 is an internet joke that says if something exists, there will be p.o.rn made of it.
Right now, though, there doesn't seem to much adult content related to the game itself. A lot of the clips on P.o.rnhub resulted in mostly gameplay videos and memes, with sexually suggestive titles to bait users into clicking. "Can't believe I just got click-baited on the hub and enjoyed it," a user wrote in the comments about a gameplay vid uploaded as "HD P.o.rn".
But as long as the game remains popular, there could certainly be a greater amount of user-created Among Us p.o.rn making its way to the adult website in the future. It is an interesting reflection of the game's journey to global renown, even when it is pretty sticky and awkward.
