Is there a security guard simulator game?

Security guard simulator

Yes. A security guard simulator lets you live the daily routine of a guard. In LifeSim, you play a security guard on a 3D map of a real city. You talk to coworkers and visitors in your own words, and the game runs free in your browser.

How to play a security guard in LifeSim

Describe your guard in the text box, including your name, age, shift, and workplace.
Include a real city in your text so the game places you on that 3D map.
Use place search to find a real museum, hospital, or office tower for your post.
Add shift tasks to your to-do list and talk to coworkers by text or in person.

A sample life: the graveyard shift in London

Tariq, 24, works the overnight graveyard shift at an office tower in Canary Wharf, London. He sets a daily to-do item to write his Daily Activity Report before 7:00 AM. Each morning, he trades notes with Claire, the daytime receptionist.

On Tuesday, Claire texts him about a lost briefcase near the lobby desk. After his shift, Tariq uses place search to meet her at a café near the British Museum. She remembers his help, and they plan a weekend outing with other staff.

Real cities for a security guard life

In Las Vegas, large teams work for MGM Resorts and Caesars Entertainment. They watch casino floors and surveillance rooms called the eye in the sky. In Los Angeles, guards check badges at studio backlots like Warner Bros. and Paramount.

In London, guards work at the National Gallery or corporate towers in the City of London. Washington, D.C., has posts at Smithsonian museums, think tanks, and foreign embassies. You can also play in Johannesburg with its neighborhood patrols, or Stockholm, where Securitas AB is headquartered.

Hard shifts, late relief, and confrontation

Real guards deal with sore feet from concrete floors and boredom at 3:00 AM. Sometimes the relief guard for the next shift arrives late, and you must stay on post. Visitors can also act rudely when you check bags or enforce post orders.

In LifeSim, you play these moments through conversation and daily goals. You can text a late coworker or calm down an angry visitor in your own words. People keep a journal of past events, so a rude argument on Monday matters on Friday.

How to start and grow your guard role

LifeSim has no career ladder, promotions, or job performance scores. You start by writing your exact post and shift into the character box at the beginning. You can edit your boss and coworkers in your cast list to fit your workplace.

Your story grows through your goals, calendar, and relationships. A quiet night post leaves time to study for college classes, just like in real life. When you want a new role, you update your goals and talk to people to change your routine.

The real job: patrols, logs, and licenses

A static guard stays at one desk to check IDs, sign in delivery drivers, and manage access control. A roving guard walks a route with a flashlight and two-way radio. They scan RFID checkpoints on walls with a guard tour wand to prove they finished the patrol.

Entry rules depend on the country. In the United States, states like California and New York require fingerprints and classes for a Guard Card. In the United Kingdom, the Security Industry Authority issues licenses, while Australia requires a Certificate II in Security Operations.

Questions

Can I watch CCTV cameras or fight trespassers?

No. LifeSim has no combat, weapons, or camera mini-games. You play out shift events and access control through open text conversations.

Can I walk inside the building I guard?

No. Buildings on the map show from the outside only, with no rooms or interiors. You go to the real location on the map and play out your post in the story.

What does observe and report mean for real guards?

Observe and report is the main rule for unarmed guards. They watch the property, write logs, and call the police instead of using physical force.

How do real security guards get a license?

In the United States, most states require a background check and a classroom course for a Guard Card. In the United Kingdom, guards need a license from the Security Industry Authority.

Is LifeSim free to play?

Yes. LifeSim is free in your browser on desktop and phone, with no download or paid items.
