Someone is knocking. Before you touch that lock, ask yourself: is it really them? Let Them In? is a doorman horror game. You run the night shift of a crumbling apartment building where doppelgangers knock on the door wearing your tenants' faces. Your job: verify every visitor and decide — let them in, turn them away, or worse. HOW A SHIFT WORKS - Watch the peephole as each visitor walks up to your door - Talk to them: name, phone number, their story - Demand the identity document and compare every field - Dial their number on the lobby phone and see if the line matches - Smell the air, check lip color, watch for anything… off - Complete the checklist and make the call: approve or refuse Every correct decision pays. Refuse a real human and the neighborhood turns on you. Let a doppelganger inside and you will hear what happens to the tenants through the walls. BUILD YOUR BLOCK Earn money on every shift, unlock new buildings across the map, fill apartments with verified tenants and grow from one creepy lobby to a whole district. New days bring new tools — and smarter fakes. A CATALOG OF FACES Every character you meet is registered in your catalog: the honest, the suspicious and the things pretending to be people. Collect them all — if you dare to open the door long enough. Inspired by the paranoia of document-checking classics, tuned for one-handed mobile play. Short shifts, heavy dread, no filler.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Alpaca Master3 holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Papers please has 20 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 4% of Alpaca Master3's written reviews are positive against 33% of Papers please's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Alpaca Master3 ships an update every 3 weeks, Papers please every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
