Given thatAmong Usis a game where players try to determine which of those among them is secretly a murderer, it’s only appropriate for Ghostface to become a part of it. In commemoration of the fifth movie finally making its way to theaters,Screamcosmetics are soon heading to the popular murder-mystery video game. Celebrating the inclusion are several members of the cast who played the game, most likely getting reminders of their experience in filming the newestScreamstory.

From the start,Screamhas always been about the characters working to uncover the identity of a masked killer taking them all out one by one.

The simple concept struck huge with players makingAmong Usone of the more popular modern games.
This isn’t the only gaming experience that’s been put together to help promoteScream. Online, fans can also play aScreamtrivia game that lets them explore Stu Macher’s house. Players go through each room of the house trying to avoid becoming Ghostface’s next victim, answering trivia questions to proceed or exploring the home while avoiding the killer.
