Welcome to the It's A Mirror Club how It's A Mirror are ya? (Due to a copyright claim there's a bit of a funny song switchout in the beginning tutorial)

Or just know it's 22:50 and 21:58
You can also call the residences to figure out if there are doppelgangers. Some of the people who aren't on the list are real (their family members will state they're expecting them to come in) and some doppelgangers look exactly like their person (their family members will state everyone is already in the complex).
@@allenkeettikkal3149afaik if the phone hangs up it means no one is home, which can mean they're legit but they'll have a different tell in that case if they're a doppleganger. Tbf though, I've already seen three videos on this game and I still miss things so no wonder one creator took to just impulsively calling the apartment every time because he kept missing moles lol
I love how others play this game and theyre like "well, this one thing is wrong, but maybe I should try calling the apartment to be sure" and Manly is just like "your nose is too small, obviously a doppelganger"
29:03 He's a doppleganger. His entry form didn't have his occupation, which was a shoe maker. He simply put he is a resident of the building. Also earlier in the video he let in a shoe maker but it was wrong. The guy's entry form said shoe MARKER, not shoe maker. There were a few others I noticed too. I feel like he kept missing these because he kept clicking on everything so fast
@@confusedjello7292 You mean the game where you're supposed to find details for discrepencies has discrepencies that are harder to notice if rushing or just going through the motions?
@@flyingstonemon3564 The guys who watch the videos and leave time stamps when people ask what time things happen are truly the hero's of going above and beyond what anyone else does. You are our hero
tbh i'm sure that the "cleaning guys" do it in person to make sure that the person they're cleaning out is, you know, a doppelganger and not an actual person it's pretty up to interpretation so I like to think that they do it in a way that gives the lowest risk of them accidentally murking an innocent human because of an erroneous report
@@nathanpierce7681 it literally states "neighbors killed" though 💀💀💀pretty sure the cleaners remove anyone and anybody from existence when they're called
@@nathanpierce7681 I don't think the cleaning guys unalive anyone, they exactly do as what they're called. They "clean up" what remains. The room itself, I think somehow dispatches the doppels and the cleanup guys just bag them. And
@@starlitteredDefinitely there will be penalty in Story Mode or Endless Mode etc. The only one available rn is Arcade Mode which is pretty much a one-shot gameplay.
@@starlittered The person in the intro video was not killed by any dopplegangers but had a horrible track record. There is only one mistake you can make aside letting a doppleganger in.
one of the really nice details I noticed is, when you dial the DDD number, the documents they give you are hidden behind the dial, so when they disappear it goes away with the dialer so you never actually see them go away. it's a small but really nice detail.
i love how every single person I've seen play this game has let the second person through by accident. It is simply completely not clear that you have to manually lock the door again.
5:18 I like how everyone makes the mistake leaving the door open at least once. Watching them saunter right in as you scramble to figure out what's happening, quite cathartic I must say
i accidently left the door open twice and on the first time, one of the women went right on in with squiggly arms, and the second time, william afton went in twice. like directly after one another
I remember when I saw one with a completely obvious imperfection, so I asked him about it and he told me that he looked “as handsome as ever” or something among the lines of that.. I love this game
there are perfect doppels with perfect paperwork so you're supposed to call the apartment if you aren't sure or if all the paperwork looks perfect, sometimes the people pick up the phone and tell you they are in the apartment which lets you know the person in front of you is a fake. the number to call for each apartment is on the apartment info
I love those games with universes that are so used to the otherworldly horrors to the point that they established rules and agencies that deal with them.
@@trueloverhnHe very well might have cut out the second and third doppelgänger. The first one was the woman where he forgot to close the door, the second might have been Roman (possibly forged papers) and the third one might really have been cut.
@@hoshueyeplopper4465at 13:23 it says that Izaack is born in 1965 when we know it’s 1955 so i think he was a doppelganger same with steven rudboys right after
@@hoshueyeplopper4465 i thought it was the birthday too and it bothered me once i noticed they were all off... so for me to think it was the birthday that means i either completely missed something, it wasnt explained well, or the explanation was cut out of the video
resident: is wearing a hat and has a slightly different nose than picture Manly: DANGER DANGER resident: has a violently deformed head Manly: hmm, let's question him first
Imagine being someone that tends to have bad acne breakouts in this world. "What's wrong with your appearance?" "I swear, it's just a very bad acne day for me!"
This game reminds me of a dream I had where my reflection had multiple fakes and I had to point out my real reflection to make them disappear, or else the fakes would come out and kill me. It was obvious as first, but later in the dream the fakes started to resemble the real reflection more and more
Papers, Please has a strong formula and I am all for seeing more developers make their spin on it. This is a solid example of it, the doppelganger angle works as a way to justify it in narrative and throw some weirder discrepancies at the player.
I am especially in favor of more similar games without necessarily having the timer. It certainly establishes the tone of Papers Please but it makes it harder-to-unplayable for some of us.
The problem is that the devs didn't add anything worthy to the Paper Please formula. And various sequences are repetitive and slow. I guess this is ok to play if you just want a simpler game.
I'm wondering if Manly is colorblind. He also let in the housewife whose dress was covered in blood and almost let in the mom who had a grey eye instead of a blue eye, but he ended up catching it because of her entry request.
The dates on the IDs confused me so bad when I first started, I thought they were birth dates rather than expiration dates and thus had 3 innocent people "cleaned" while yelling "No damned time traveling doppelgangers are gonna get me!" and thinking I was so smart... Needless to say that feeling didn't last long. 😅
Okay but Manly letting in that doppleganger in so bored and *THEN* checking the list, for the quick, paniced realization to settle upon him, just as the door closes, before getting killed two seonds later, just- MUAH! Cinematic!
@@seulgi_ningx2When you look at the folders for the floors, each room has an apartment phone number listed at the top. Just pick up the phone and dial the number.
Not sure what happened to my comment, but here it is again. The folders show apartment phone numbers for each apartment. To call them, just click the phone and dial the number.
You should use the phone numbers of their apartments to call their family members, to know who is coming in, sometimes the person you’re investigating lives by themselves meaning if the phone gets answered the person you have is a doppelgänger despite how perfect their list, id and entry request is.
If someone isn't on the list but otherwise seems okay, you should call their apartment to check if they're actually out or not. This also applies if someone should be wearing a hat but isn't; sometimes they just forgot it at home and their roommate can confirm that.
Imagine the burden of living in this apartment building, not only you are afraid your neighbors/roommates are doppelgangers, but imagine you forgot your hat one day, or decide to not wear ponytails and just forget to update that info 😂
Might be cool if the legit people keep a receipt from a salon or from a plastic surgeon to show proof of why their appeaeance is changed (if its a big change like hair color or a scar disappearing) but they only present it if you question them on their appearance.
For the hat, Roman forgot his on one of my playthroughs and explained that he left it at home, and said I could call his wife to make sure. So I did, and she vouched for him and said he left it in the apartment. It checked out so I let him in and I survived that day.
That one guy that comes in to ask you the meaning of life ends up having like 30 different questions. You get an achievement if you get them all right, but it's pretty much required to google everything since one of the question even requires a cipher.
I only JUST started watching some videos for the game yesterday, so seeing the notification after I started was pretty funny. Manly just knows his audience too well I guess
Why were you like ‘Man’ though? Are you gay? Do you typically think of MEN before making your statement? You could have just thought “I hope he plays this game” but you instead thought “MAN I hope he plays this”. Mate, you’re a homosexual.
If you ever play this game again, each floor actually has its own phone number, so you can call it. Sometimes, the other person really isn't in the apartment. Other times, you'll find out they're already there, so even if everything looks legit, the person in front is an imposter.
*has phone and apartment phone number* *never calls apartment to see if the person not on the list is already home* *can't figure out how perfect doppelgangers are getting in*
Yeah, he's kinda rushing, not really paying close enough attention to the details, and not utilizing everything in the kit. It's one of those games where you have to slow down, go step-by-step, and use investigative skills.
Had a dream somewhat similair to this where I was hiding inside a shed, and I had a bunch of interconnected sheds. Some with people who I knew were real inside. Outside were occasionally real people trying to survive / people who were finding supplies and other times basically skinwalkers. The entire time I had to try to manage supply runs and try not to get other people killed inside other places, also locking out connected areas that have been destrroyed / taken by the skinwalkers. Weird dream, could probably make it into a game.
a tip for this game: basically, every document on the floors basically you can call the sister/wife/husband whatever they are, if they say they aren’t in the hotel it’s because they are real, if it isn’t real they are gonna say they are in the hotel,
Hey Manly, You remember the clown! I was wondering if you would. The time when you played Unlikely was unbelievable for me, and even knowing that this time for this game you were more likely for you to play it, it's still amazing to me, you are one of my favorite youtubers for so long, so it's a huge honor that you played my games.
Looks like your game is blowing up this time around, I've seen non-stop notifications for it from random channels on the sidebar over the last few days. Congrats!
Living in an apartment must be hell your life is constantly at risk, every 5 minutes theres a loud-ass siren going off, the entry protocol takes 30 minutes
@@ak_nora There was also the fact he kept messing up IDs because he never bothered with ones that were expired and just marked them as okay, since it's 02/1955 in game, yet some IDs are 1950...
Reminds me of papers please. You gotta be real thorough to find even the slightest discrepancies. I’m curious to see what the deeper story is in the full release
I think one of the things you missed doing, which let the doppelganger in, was using the apartment phone numbers in the files to check whether residents were actually out, or actually in their apartments. At least, I assume you would have shown some of those phone conversations if you had.
@@erisvile9443agree. A lot of RU-vidrs don't mesh well with my preferences. They aren't necessarily bad RU-vidrs but I find quite a few annoying to me personally
@@erisvile9443I just watched Diedevdie play nightmare mode and I didn’t think he was obnoxious. It was the first video of his I watched tho so take my recommendation with a grain of salt
@@creeperizak8971That’s not really proven by the expiration date, though. The game takes place in 1955, so the ID isn’t expired. It’s more likely that a doppelganger is just forging their documents anyways.
I wish he clicked on the extra details though. He let 3 dopplegangers in the first try and I want to know who they were and what he missed XD Because he got it wrong on one of the Elenois Sverchtz dopplegangers where he did guess she was a doppleganger but it wasn't because her head was bigger
Imagine if someone walked into the doorway and saw his or her doppelganger trying to get in. Or the opposite situation where a doppelganger has to quickly and quietly walk out before the person its impersonating sees it.
i saw this game randomly in my recommendations and was like "fuck, manlybadasshero would the perfect guy to play this game." the sheer elation i felt when i saw this in my notifs is indescribable
@2:21 to 2:52 the audio completely cuts out from game & mic Not dogging, I just thought it was odd his mic is also muted. I'm guessing it has to do with copyright shit cause RU-vid is going crazy with that again. VaatiVidya (Dark Souls lore legend) literally just had to claim rights to his own content because it was on a second channel of his and RU-vid struck him for it.
_"Your nose is off"_ Imagine standing at a window in your building and some guy looks you over and says something like that. And you're actually who you say you are. I'm thinking some very bored, tired, disaffected customer service type who couldn't care less about you or your need to get home. This was hilarious - I liked the art and the humor. Agree that I would have wanted more weird scary doppelgangers, but I liked the subtle differences too. The random quiz portion was a little odd. You were right about the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy answer, MBH. I think the quiz, if it has even more obscure questions, makes more sense and is more fun for streamers getting info from their live audiences than for people just playing by themselves tho. Obviously derivative of Papers, Please but in a good, fun way.
*It's unbelievable that he didn't once called the apartment number at all* I mean every time he looks in a folder each one has it's own phone number you can call and not once was that utilize especially with the very detailed Doppelgangers
One thing that Manly may or may not be able to notice is you can call the apt phone number by checking out the file. You can double confirm if the person who is not on the list might already be in the apartment.
ManlyBadassHero the badass doorman! Also, remember to call the apartment number, even if the appearance is perfect. Some doppelgangers have perfect disguises.
My introverted ass never lets anyone into my home. I’d survive this shit so easy. Probably wouldn’t even realize anything was happening. Fun fact I actually got a letter from my city once telling me that I had to remove the shock button from underneath my doorbell. I kept the outdoor floor mat that says “fuck off” though.
I hit one of those by accident as a kid and we ended up bothering the neighbor even more because my parents thought their doorbell was broken and dangerous. Very awkward explanation lol
I don't normally comment but I just had to say that you gotta be one of the best horror youtubers. Playing obscure titles, not annoyingly yelling the whole video and not plugging a bunch. Keep it up.
