You're a security officer deep within Area 51. Scan the staff, verify clearances, and decide who can enter the elevator and who absolutely mustn't leave. The deeper you go, the less certain you are that anyone standing before you is still human.
Modeled estimate, not a reported figure. How we estimate →
Security 51 is an atmospheric security guard simulator inspired by Papers, Please, and SCP paranoia. You're on duty in the underground bunker of Area 51, where the most dangerous part begins at the elevator: the shaft descends for miles down to unknown levels. Whether it's laboratories, anomalies, inhumane experiments, or something alien—you're not supposed to know. Your task is simple: let in those who have access and stop those who don't... even if everything looks "right" on the surface.
Everyone who passes through your checkpoint carries papers and passes. Your job is to check names, positions, clearance levels, and time, ensuring the number of people entering and leaving matches, and pay attention to any oddities. As time passes you'll catch yourself thinking that something's wrong more and more, and the only thing to rely on will be the protocols. But even they can be wrong.
With experience, you'll gain increasingly more accurate methods of identity verification, such as blood testing. Did that janitor simply open the wrong door, or are they a spy for an enemy government? Or are they not even human? When in doubt, quarantine the suspect. Sometimes you'll make mistakes and lock up an ordinary employee, and sometimes you'll find a titanium cell ripped open from the inside. Some decisions will have immediate consequences, others only after several shifts.
The consequences of every mistake go far beyond issues in the workplace. Let the wrong person out, and the infection will ravage the city. Isolate suspicious employees, investigate anomalies, and launch new operations to contain the threat before it's too late.
Remember, it's not just about who you let in, but who or what you let out into the world.

Здравствуйте! Неплохая игра в жанре Papers Please. Очень интересные идеи и механики. Относительно PP даже несколько попроще)) Своих денег стоит и если вы как я фанаты подобного жанра рекомендую.
Cooles game, wer "Papers Please" mag sollte unbedingt zuschlagen. Definitive Kaufempfehlung.

Introduces way too many mechanics too quickly. Causing confusion early on. The desk work itself is fun, but everything else you do feels added in for the sake of being different from Papers Please. For some I imagine this'll be great. But for me, it comes of as overwhelming. Great art direction at least.
für mich ein sehr gutes Papers Please like game mit viel VIEL potenzial
1) The devs think that a whale is a fish. 2) I beat one timeline and (minor spoilers) the leader started calling me kawaii and a cutie. Complete 180 in what I had experienced up until that point. What a just awful shift in writing in the absolute worst way possible.
Really fun game if you're looking for something like Papers, Please. It has parts that are better and others are worse but if you want something like it this game should fulfill that need and more if you enjoy the gameplay loop this game offers compared to Papers, Please. The pixel art style will always tickle something deep in my brain and I love how this game did that. Biggest con is that there isn't a crazy good story but in all honesty it works out because I just turn my brain off and do my job which is where this game shines.
不推荐喜欢Papers, please的玩家购买这个游戏,玩法和papers, please类似但是几乎没有任何主线故事,基本上就是查验身份游戏的循环和偶尔会出现的彩蛋小细节,这就是全部了,有点像是把喜欢papers please的玩家们骗进来杀,如果开发者后续还会更新故事的话可能会让这个游戏变得更好玩吧(但多半不会发生)
遊戲玩法沒什麼問題,但是內容引導不足,像過關後說可以開分支但是分支玩半天還是走一樣的結局 各種研究到底要研究出什麼也沒說明只能一個一個試,每天的報紙還以為跟故事主線有什麼關係結果完全無關? 主角像個無情的檢驗機器然後研究一完成直接按下全部殲滅按鈕,但由於缺乏引導讓我搞不懂這是正確結局還是我有什麼沒做對的地方,當然如果通通不考慮劇情只玩檢測那這5小時也算玩得挺開心的
