They have also had many Spinoffs, such as music videos, animatronic ride parodies, a Choose-Your-Own-Adventure video, or a re-enactment of other games such as ''VideoGame/MarioKart'' or ''VideoGame/{{Roblox}}'' maps.

** During the 'If Water Fights Were Like Battle Royale', Judah has a RunningGag of putting water balloons in his back pocket with the tendency for them to pop in case it smashes into something or he has to crouch. His defense to his teammate Elijah is '''"IN CASE OF EMERGENCY!!"'''. Later on, [[spoiler: he ends up winning the whole Battle Royale against the other last survivor Shiloh because he still has one balloon after his pool noodle got knocked out. "'''IN CASE OF EMERGENCY!!'''' indeed.]]

'''Britney''': So help me Judah, ''you say that all the time!!''

--> '''Cole:''' Green tried to throw me and Judah out.
--> '''Josiah:''' It's Micah? I knew it.
--> '''Judah:''' No, the other green one. You know, the awkwardly tall green guy?
--> '''Micah:''' I’m not ''that'' tall.
--> '''Judah:''' THE GREEN RAINBOW FRIEND!
--> '''Josiah:''' Oh.
--> '''Britney:''' All right guys, let's vote out orange.
--> '''Shiloh:''' Britney, you can't vote out the orange Rainbow Friend.
--> '''Britney:''' No, I just wanna vote out Judah.
--> '''Josiah:''' I am so confused.
** Later on, when the Rainbow Friends throw out Josiah, Daniel suggests using the crewmates' names.

--> '''Cole: Green tried to throw me and Judah out.

--> '''Micah:''' I’m not that tall.

--> '''Mary:''' The human green!

* One-SteveLimit: In the Rainbow Friends crossover, the crewmates confuse the colors of the Rainbow Friends with the colors of the crewmates and vice versa.

--> '''[[spoiler: Josiah:]]''' Okay, I AM the imposter but THIS was not me.

** "RED SUS!!"

** Parodying ''VideoGame/MarioKart'' instead of ''VideoGame/AmongUs'', with similar characterization and the same DancePartyEnding in the end.

** Rainbow Friends was adapted into its own interpretation. They would later face off against Huggy Wuggy in a special {{Crossover}} and invade a round of Among Us.

* UnluckyExtra: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]] sometimes, but generally anyone with a last name other than Nelson has lesser importance in the videos. They are often thrown out early or on flimsy circumstances in Among Us games [[HiddenVillain unless they are the last imposter left.]] And in the duo battle royales they don't last long or if they are paired with one of them go out first. Special points go to the Gray Team from the water park royale; they are the first two out and five and a half minutes in the video pass until another full team get ousted.

** In ''If [[VideoGame/PoppyPlaytime Huggy Wuggy]] was in Among Us'' episode, Huggy Wuggy indiscriminately eliminates everyone he comes across and he can't be voted out in the ''Among Us'' manner (he ''always'' comes back to the game), forcing the Crewmate and Imposter side to work together to find a way to get rid of him. They try to throw him out, but that didn't work either. [[spoiler:And for once, the truce doesn't end after Huggy Wuggy is out, both Crewmates and Imposters participate in the DancePartyEnding.]]

* FiveSecondForeshadowing: In the second too many mods episode as the roles are listed that are active in the game slowing them down will reveal both that there was an invisible character in the game and [[David actually had the power Elijah claims later on, thus the latter is the absorber this time.]]

* VideoGame/BrawlStars had its own adaptation, with [[spoiler: Elijah]] taking the overall win.

** In the Rainbow Friends video Nancy attempts this with [[WebVideo/TheGameTheorists The Game Theorists]] channel in a lore filled room, but is cut short by [[spoiler: noticing Blue right behind her.]]

* ZombieApocalypse: The Zombies episode involves the Crewmates trying to survive a zombie infection started by [[spoiler:William]]

* AstonishinglyAppropriateAppearance: In the modded games the players who have the special roles are given a change to their appearance that reflects the role. [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]] for the jester (at least during the game), original zombie imposter, shapeshifter and absorber due to their identities being shown as a mystery and the guardian angel as it's only given after being thrown out.

* ItsQuietTooQuiet: Said verbatim by Shiloh and Daniel in the first trio battle royale as they traverse while concealing their teammate Zoe.

* ExcusePlot: Shiloh's mom has a bunch of tasks for the crew and a party is held later, but only the Crewmates or Impostors can be in. The Rainbow Friends [[=Crossover=]] reveals this is for the [[FunWithAcronyms Missions Operations Management run by their mom]], but that's all you need to know about 'plot', the rest is basically how many ''VideoGame/AmongUs'' parodies and shenanigans you can cram in.

** In the second too many mods game references to VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}, Franchise/{{Batman}}, VideoGame/{{Halo}}, Franchise/{{Shrek}} and [[WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast]] are made in the same way.

** In 5 after [[spoiler: Leah sabotages so Elijah and Judah can't just vote her out Daniel whispers that he thinks it's Judah. After the latter calls a meeting once the former fixes it Leah makes the same move to no avail.]]

* IdiotHero: Judah is usually portrayed as someone not very bright in the head, tending to do dumb things and constantly passing through [[MostDefinitelyNotAVillain impostors faking tasks]]. He also at one point fails to recognize Britney when she wears [[PaperThinDisguise a wig and a color other than red]] when everyone else already knew it was her.

* MissingMom: Shiloh's mom is the one who gives the tasks, but otherwise remains not seen in the videos. [[EarlyInstallmentWeirdness (She did however sometimes appear in non-gaming-related sketches from before they took off.)]]

[[StealthSequel Stealth Prequel]]: The Project Playtime video shows what happened to the others when they first went to the Playtime factory, ending with Elijah receiving their help letter and calling for Shiloh.

* In the NERF Zombies video Elijah is shown having an axe with a bunch a grenades on it. [[spoiler: This ends up being the weapon he uses to eliminate alpha Michelle when he's left as the SoleSurvivor.]]

* TokenMiniMoe: Jocelyn, Micah's 'neighbor's kid' that he took care of, is the only pre-teen character and represents the Mini Crewmate.

Unlike the usual live-action re-enactment of ''Among Us'', [[GameplayAndStorySegretation there are several deviations to the rules.]] Aside from no one being dead, talking is allowed outside meetings, but decisions can only be made during meetings. Additionally, reportable crimes are now no longer just 'dead body found' (since no one can die) but include mundane chores misconducts like breaking vases, littering, not washing dishes, etc. And because of this, the Ghost feature isn't heavily used, once someone is eliminated they can't help further in either finishing tasks or sabotaging [[EarlyInstallmentWeirdness (this only appeared once in the earlier episodes).]]

''If Everything Was Like VideoGame/AmongUs'' is a series of web videos done by Shiloh Nelson and her siblings (big brothers Ejilah, Micah, Judah, Josiah, Daniel and big sister Mary) and close friends. While she already made several [=TikTok=] videos where they engaged in friendly pranks against each other, this is a series that blew up in popularity, causing continuations and somewhat consistent characterization throughout the videos.

There have been several Spinoffs, such as music videos, animatronic ride parodies, a Choose-Your-Own-Adventure video, or a re-enactment of ''VideoGame/MarioKart'' or sometimes ''VideoGame/{{Roblox}}'' maps.

Shiloh and her bros, along with this series, can be viewed [[https://www.youtube.com/c/ShilohBros here.]] They also have a second channel [[https://www.youtube.com/c/NelsonBoys/featured here]] and have a channel translating their videos to Spanish [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1s3g9xwJjUsaQY0RXZVZBg here.]]

* AffectionateParody: The series contains several nods towards the game's elements and players' actual tendencies, as Shiloh and her bros often play video games, ''VideoGame/AmongUs'' included. For instance, whenever lights are out, sometimes, multiple people try to fix the lights to no avail, referencing how players tend to stack and fix the lights together, only to fail because they (due to lag) tend to turn off a switch that was already turned on by other players.

** In the HalloweenEpisode Josiah has the Teddy Bear role, which allows him to hold imposters in a hug. [[spoiler: Mica ends up suffering from this.]]

* CharacterAsHimself: Everyone who appears here goes by their real name, the only exceptions being the characters from those plugged in from their home series with others playing their role.

* ChekhovsSkill: Elijah's special skill is to do tasks in the dark. While at first many accuse him of being an impostor, this comes in handy when he becomes the only crewmate in Among Us -1.

* CharacterAsHimself: Everyone who appears here goes by their real name, the only exceptions being the characters from VideoGame/PoppyPlaytime and Rainbow Friends with humans playing their role.

--> '''Micah''': "Whoa whoa. I'm actually an imposter guys."

* MostDefinitelyNotAVillain: Some of the characters as impostors will fake tasks by doing something ridiculous or act evil with others around them, and somehow other crewmates aren't concerned about it and move on.

** Rainbow Friends was made into its own interpretation.

* UnluckyExtra: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]] sometimes, but generally anyone with a last name other than Nelson doesn't fair well in games and has lesser importance in the videos. They are often thrown out early or on flimsy circumstances in Among Us games [[HiddenVillain unless they are the last imposter left.]] And in the duo battle royales they don't last long or if they are paired with one of them go out first. Special points go to the Gray Team from the water park royale; they are the first two out and five and a half minutes in the video pass until another full team get ousted.
