The story behind the fear
The year is 1955, and the Doppelganger Detection Department (DDD) has recruited you as their newest doorman. Jobs are scarce, so you accept the role even if it means staring danger in the face.
The building is home to dozens of colorful tenants, from teachers and bankers to seamstresses and chefs. But among them lurk doppelgangers, creatures that mimic appearance and mannerisms but falter under close scrutiny. The mystery deepens with every shift as you uncover unsettling secrets about your neighbors, the facility, and the growing doppelganger threat.
