Introduction
Hello, and welcome to this guide to Polus.
Here, you'll learn about the map, some of the tasks, and more!
Map Layout
The layout is (kind of) complex, with a left and right side and a middle.


On the left is Electrical, Communications, Weapons and O2.
Like on The Skeld, Electrical includes the lights sabotage. However, now Electrical also includes the cameras; but you have to flick through the cameras individually to go through them.
O2 doesn't have a sabotage anymore.
O2 has a Boiler Room (more on that later).
Communications still has its own sabotage.
Weapons still incorporates its tasks from The Skeld, but in a smaller space.

On the right is the Laboratory and Specimen Room.
In the Lab is the MedBay squeezed in there.
The specimen room has two entrances/exits; one in Lab below MedBay, and one in Admin.
Speaking of which, let's move to the middle.

In the middle is the Office, Storage, Dropship and Admin.
Storage is MUCH smaller now, only incorporating one task.
Dropship is the spawn in the beginning, but after one emergency meeting/reported body, they spawn in the Office, much like Mira HQ.
Office has two main components; Office and Admin.
In Admin, you have the Admin Table, which is the same for The Skeld and Mira HQ. Admin also incorporates an entrance into Specimen room.

Sabotages and Vents
Sabotages:

Doors;
You can lock the doors at Storage, Electrical, Laboratory, O2, Communications, Weapons and Office.
To unlock them, click Use, and then click or tap on the switches that are to the right.

Main Sabotages;
You can sabotage Lights, Communications (comms) and Reactor.
There is no O2 sabotage.
To fix them, they are the same as fixing the sabotages on The Skeld.

Vents:

There are 3 vent systems in Polus; one that goes near Electrical and O2, one that connects Communications, Storage and Office, and one that goes from outside Admin to inside Admin to outside Lab and then inside Lab.
Thanks for reading!
If you've found a few things you'd want to have changed or added, then feel free to add a suggestion in the comment section.

This took me an entire day of proof-reading, checking tasks on the Switch version of Among Us, and trying to remember all that I could to put into this one guide!
So if this helped you or anyone you know, then you're welcome.

And with that, I guess I might be seeing you on the frosty purple planet we know as Polus!
