What Is Roblox the Mimic?
The Mimic is a spooky Roblox adventure set in Japan. It’s currently two different stories (for now) in one, each with its cast of characters (like separate books!). While the creators haven’t released everything yet, they’re planning at least four chilling chapters inspired by creepy Japanese legends.
If you have played horror games like P.T. or Until Dawn, Mimic is a little similar to those. In the horror aspect, it matches any scary experience. However, every story and book in Mimic is different, so your journey will be unique.
The Mimic Books So Far
All stories or books in Mimic are based on Japanese history and urban legends. However, they all come with a slight twist you can find out after playing the game. Each book has its world that you will venture into as different characters. Rebirth and Rage are still to unfold, while Jealousy is in chapter three. Here are the books in Mimic so far:
- Control: Yasu Masashige, fresh out of high school, returns to his alma mater to find his missing friends. But the search turns dark, leading him to a hidden dimension within Japan. Yasu confronts a monstrous being who has cursed his family for generations. To break the curse and save his parents and ancestors, Yasu must face this demon in an epic showdown.
- Jealousy: The second book in “The Mimic” follows Isamu, a man seeking answers after his brother’s mysterious death. He gets whisked away to another world by a creature from Japanese myth: the Umibozu, a vengeful spirit of a drowned priest. The story is still in progress.
