Security 51 Horror Sim Launches July 27, Demo Out Now
Publisher Alawar announced on June 26 that its horror simulation game Security 51 will launch on Steam on July 27. The game casts players as a security guard at a facility beneath Area 51, tasked with checking documents, permits, and credentials of people passing through a checkpoint to a dangerous elevator area. Suspicious visitors may be infiltrating janitors, enemy spies, or non-human entities. The full version adds systems not present in the demo, including blood sample analysis and microscopic examination of specimens, plus new locations deeper in the facility. Players can also use surveillance cameras inside the facility as evidence, spotting anomalies such as a person emerging from an elevator that should be empty or an employee who left the facility reappearing. The game draws inspiration from Papers, Please and Paranoia SCP. A demo version is currently available on Steam, and the store page lists Japanese language support.
