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.
