- Mind-bending storyline focused on AI ethics

- Survival based on logic, not just reflex

You play as a test subject in an underground simulation lab. The Mimic uses voices from your past—family, friends—to trick you into false choices. The real challenge? Knowing what’s real and what’s generated by the AI.
Gameplay Features:
- Voice-trap puzzles
- Simulation within simulation levels
- Multiple endings based on memory trust
Visuals & Sound Design
The environment is sterile yet haunting. Cold metallic walls and robotic whispers surround you. Sound is everything in this game—from the voice of your mother to a corrupted alarm tone, every noise has meaning.
Should You Play It?
If you enjoy psychological horror with deep lore and slow-burning tension, Secret of the Mimic is a must-play. It may not be for those seeking fast-paced action, but it offers one of the most mentally immersive horror experiences of the series.
