What Is That's Not My Neighbor?

Released on February 24, 2024, by Costa Rican solo developer Ignacio Alvarado (Nacho Sama), That's Not My Neighbor is a horror job simulator set in a 1955 apartment building. Available on Steam, itch.io (for those who purchased before the Steam release), and select online platforms, the game casts you as a doorman tasked with a chilling mission: identify doppelgangers—shape-shifting creatures that mimic residents—to prevent them from infiltrating the building.

Tips for Playing That's Not My Neighbor

• Double-Check Everything: Compare IDs and entry requests against the Daily Visitor List and dossiers. Even small errors, like an expired ID, can signal a doppelganger.

• Use the Phone: If a visitor isn’t on the Daily List, call their apartment to verify their story.

• Watch for Subtle Clues: In Nightmare Mode, doppelgangers have minor flaws, like slightly off facial proportions. Zoom in on photos to spot differences.

• Enable Trypophobia Filter: If you have trypophobia, toggle the setting to avoid triggering visuals.

• Organize Documents: Place completed forms in floor-specific folders to stay organized during hectic shifts.

• Be Cautious with the D.D.D.: Calling 3312 to neutralize a doppelganger is final—ensure you’re certain before pressing the emergency button.
