How To Play The Thanos Mod

This mod slims the crewmates' ability to win the game, considering the range of abilities that the impostor could do. When the impostor takes on this role and utilizes the Soul Stone, Thanos could resurrect a dead crewmate and transform them into an ally or a second impostor. A resurrected crewmate can only access the Sabotage button when they become an impostor. Although they have no power to kill other crewmates, they can help Thanos win the game.

Interestingly, when a crewmate is killed using the Snap button, the camera will shake, notifying the others that the impostor has used this particular ability. In this mod, crewmates have a couple of choices: they either die trying to complete their tasks before the impostor kills all of them or resurrect as an impostor and betray their teammates.
