Trouble In Terrorist Town, better known as "Traitor Town" for censorship reasons, is a popular gamemode for Garry's Mod.
So what is it? Well, it's basically Among Us with guns. The players spawn in the map and have 30 seconds to prepare. Then, their role is revealed to them, and they must carry out their goals as that role in order to win. There are four roles: Innocent, Detective, Traitor, and Jester.
Innocents are...just that. They're part of a group that has some untrustworthy member(s) who are trying to kill them. Their goal is to kill them before they all die.
Detectives are like innocents, only with fancy gadgets they can use to figure out who the traitors are more easily, or to help innocents survive. Just like the innocents, the detective must be killed for the traitors to win.
Traitors/Terrorists are the untrustworthy people of the bunch. They gave only one goal: To kill everyone else. Like the detective, they have fancy gadgets. Unlike the detective, these "Gadgets" are things that a real-life terrorist would use.
The Jester is a player who must intentionally act suspicious in order to get killed by the other players; this role only exists to discourage "Random Death Matching", or RDM.
It sounds simple, but there's a catch: There is no way to discern players' roles by looking (except for the detective, who wears a hat). This game can and will make you paranoid as hell after a few rounds, and it WILL give you trust issues. You have been warned.

Traitor Town is quite popular, and is actually quite well-made compared to other GMOD gamemodes, like Prop Hunt.
For example, one of the most annoying things people can do is "Random Death Matching," or killing players randomly, thus ruining the point of the game. To fix this, there is not only the aforementioned Jester, but also a "Karma" meter. Karma is a measure of how you behave in the game. Randomly killing other players when you're not a traitor will result in your karma going down. The lower your karma is, the less damage you do to other players. (For example, if you have 769 karma, all of your attacks will only deal 76% damage; the max karma is 1000, or 100% damage.) If your karma drops too low (below 25%), you will be kicked and temporarily banned from the game.
Also, if everyone dies (i.e the traitor uses a suicide bomb and successfully kills every player in the game), the Traitors will win the round; after all, the Traitor(s') goal is to kill everyone, not to survive.
