Fnaf's secret of the mimic has finally solved security breach. Thanks to the inclusion of the

mimic's backstory, we now have the answers that we have been

dying to understand for years. What is the mimics goal? What is the deal with Mexas? And why was the

law of security breach so confusing in the first place? You know, besides the whole Scott not

telling steel wool the story thing. I thought I could do that without telling Steelwall the story plot.

Hello, internet.

Welcome to Game Theory, the show that has ingested so much FNAFlaw, it too has chosen violence.

That's right, today we're tackling the second main character in our three-part secret of the mimic extravaganza.

The mimic.

Although I say that, as I was writing this episode, one thing became very clear.

There is way too much to say about this character to fit in just one episode, and so I'm going to add a bonus fourth episode to our lineup. Today, we're gonna focus on the Mimic's past and present, and next time, it's future. Then let's actually talk about this one-of-a-kind villain. Well, actually, despite me referring to it as The Mimic this whole time, the one key thing secret of the Mimic was very clear about, it's really not one-of-a-kind at all. Which, to be fair, is something we've been believing for a while now. In Tales from the Pizzaplex, we see two versions of the mimic. The Mimic 1 program, which was the Mimic software that Edwin Murray created to put into a half-finished endoskeleton to play with his son David, which was then later used by Fazbear in the storyteller, and then

there's the Mimic 2, which was Fazbear's improvements on the original design, creating an

endoskeleton that could change its shape and size to fit any costume or animatronic.

However, how all of that tied into things like security breach and ruin were pretty speculative,

especially as we didn't even know if the book's

stories were in the same continuity and whether we could rely on them wholesale or not.

My personal theory was that yes, those two mimics were indeed present in security breach.

With the mimic 2 being the physical endoskeleton we find in the basement of ruin,

and the mimic 1 program being what we now know as Glitch Tram, taking over Fasbear's systems

and using it to manipulate people into doing its bidding, like Helpy does to Cassie in Ruin,
