That’s Not My Neighbor casts players in the role of a doorman with a twist. Set against the backdrop of 1955, the game unfolds in an apartment building that’s become the hunting ground for doppelgängers—sinister entities that mimic human appearance to perfection for unknown, likely malevolent reasons. Your task is to sift through the masquerade, using a blend of wit, observation, and a series of verification tools to ensure that these impostors do not breach the sanctuary of the residence. With each interaction at the door, the tension thickens, as the fate of the building’s inhabitants rests squarely on your ability to discern truth from deception.

A Duel of Wits and Observation

Armed with the essentials of a makeshift detective—telephone, checklists, and a keen eye—you navigate through your shifts under the ever-watchful guidance of the Doppelganger Detection Department (D.D.D.). Your office, albeit small, becomes the epicenter of a silent battle against the encroaching threat. The tools at your disposal, from the security window to the detailed folders of resident information, are your allies in this clandestine war. Each visitor brings a new challenge, a puzzle where the pieces don’t always fit neatly together. The game elevates the mundane task of verifying IDs and making calls into a thrilling exercise of espionage.

Doppelgangers: The Silent Menace

The core of That’s Not My Neighbor revolves around the eerie calm of this covert confrontation. Doppelgängers, with their unnerving precision in mimicking human traits, introduce a constant sense of unease. The game’s strength lies in its ability to make the ordinary extraordinary, transforming routine checks into moments brimming with suspense. As players delve deeper, they’re drawn into a narrative that blurs the lines between the mundane and the macabre.
