Security 51 Verification Checklist Tool

Use this interactive checklist during live Security 51 shifts on Steam. Alawar’s checkpoint punishes skipped steps — a missed ID compare or headcount gap can surface horror three days later. The tool below mirrors wiki protocol from Document Verification, Spotting Anomalies, Elevator Headcount, and late-game guides without opening multiple tabs mid-queue.

Progress saves in your browser local storage on this device. Press reset between shifts if you want a clean tally. No promo codes or external accounts required.

How to use this tool

1. Open before Start Day — align with Getting Started bulletin reading.
2. Check items as you complete each visitor — do not batch-check at end of shift.
3. Reset after shift or when switching careers for Endings hunts.
4. Pair with Early Shifts Walkthrough while learning day-specific bulletin exceptions.

Checklist line explanations

Bulletin and Start Day — Special rules override habit. Photo-match traps on Day 4 per Early Shifts Walkthrough require literal bulletin reading.

Name and ID — Cross-document fields from Document Verification. Post-patch incorrect passport numbers appear in Launch Patch Notes.

Photo compare — Face versus document portrait unless bulletin waives photos when paperwork alone decides.

Clearance and time — Floor authorization and schedule windows; escort pairs count as two in headcount.

External anomalies — Skin, speech, posture per Spotting Anomalies.

X-ray — When unlocked and required — X-Ray Scanning.

Biometrics — Fingerprint and blood when suspicion remains — Fingerprint and Blood Tests.

Headcount — Enter, exit, duplicate checks — Elevator Headcount.

Deny, quarantine, guards — Escalation paths — Quarantine Protocol.

Sanity prep — Buy food between shifts — Sanity and Supplies.

Device setups

• Dual monitor — checklist on second screen, game fullscreen primary
• Phone — mobile browser beside laptop running demo or full game
• Controller players — phone checklist while using Controller Controls

Demo and full game

Checklist covers systems present in demo and full release. Demo may lack X-ray and biometric lines until unlock — skip unchecked items until tools appear per Demo vs Full Game.

Updates

When Updates Hub documents patch changes, revisit checklist habits even if line items stay stable — bulletin text changes meaning.

Compare procedural discipline with Security 51 vs Papers, Please — Lucas Pope players often already checklist mentally; this tool externalizes the habit for horror escalation you have not trained yet.

The checklist does not judge you — the facility does. Click every box honestly before the elevator moves. Empty cameras and duplicate colleagues never warn you which step you skipped; this tool does.

Late-game checklist extensions

After floor 2 promotion per Late Shifts Walkthrough, add mental lines for ward processing and emergencies even if the interactive component has not yet expanded:

• Ward send logged — confirm bulletin allowed isolation routing per Isolation Ward.
• Emergency resolved — Machina Fatorum or security choice documented per Emergency Protocols.
• Camera archive — tarot or anomaly photo captured when hunting Camera Inspection achievements.

These extensions prevent achievement grinds from skipping narrative-critical steps while chasing counters in All Achievements.
