Learn how to use the fingerprint system in "Papers, Please" to verify identities and deny or detain entrants.
You will occasionally get the opportunity to fingerprint somebody. You will be handed a fingerprint form, and must give it to the person. When you get it back, you can verify the on-site fingerprints against a fingerprint record. If the fingerprints match, the person is who he or she says he or she is.
Fingerprint records will also include a list of alternate aliases, as a few people may have a second name.
If a person claims to have a second name due to two pieces of ID with different names, but the fingerprint record claims no known aliases, you can link the 'No Known Aliases' with the false ID and use this as a reason to Deny the person entry, or to detain him or her.
- Always compare the fingerprint form to the official fingerprint record.
- Pay attention to the 'No Known Aliases' section on the fingerprint record.
- A discrepancy between claimed aliases and the fingerprint record can be grounds for denial or detention.
