* ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIV Shadowbringers'': During the 5.2 story, Ardbert's corpse is possessed by the Ascian Elidibus, who initially attempts to deceive the Scions of the Seventh Dawn into thinking he is the genuine article. You get your choice of how to make him blow his cover; [[HandshakeSubstitute offer a fist-bump]] ("Ardbert" asks if there's something wrong with your arm) or mention [[AmplifiedAnimalAptitude Seto]] ("Ardbert" acts as though the amaro is dead).

* An interesting case in ''VideoGame/DragonQuestVI''. The Hero enters Somnia Castle in the other world after discovering you look exactly like the missing prince. The chancellor, having heard that someone in town purchased noble clothes like what the Hero is wearing and he asks the name of your long dead sister. [[spoiler:''All'' of the available choices are wrong. Then again, it turns out that the Hero ''is'' the Prince of that world's Somnia...[[LiteralSplitPersonality sort of]].]]
* PlayedWith in ''VideoGame/Fallout2'' by Renesco the Rocketman when you're looking for parts. After giving the password, you're asked for the second password - your only response is to cuss out the foreman for not giving you the second password. Renesco then says to relax, that there was no second password. Humorously, if you leave this quest on the backburner for too long, you can forget the first password too...
-->'''The Wanderer:''' Marcus says... shit...\\

* In ''Jolly Rover'' James tries to pass himself off as a pirate named Davey and is promptly stumped by Melvin asking where he and Davey were when they got drunk on a keg of rum and thought they were two young princes. It takes the help of a parrot to get past this point.
* A body-snatcher variant appears in ''[[VideoGame/MegaManBattleNetwork4RedSunAndBlueMoon Mega Man Battle Network 4: Blue Moon]]'', in which Lan got suspicious when Mega Man tells him to forfeit the tournament. So Lan decided to quiz him, and the player selects the answers. For the first couple of questions, it's entirely possible to get the question ''right'' (subverting the trope), but then Lan throws out a question about the strongest Navi Mega Man has ever faced, and none of the choices given have actually existed in the series. This allows Lan to determine that Junk Man is controlling Mega Man's body. Interestingly, there ''is'' a question about Lan's TrademarkFavoriteFood, but while the canon answer should be "curry" (which isn't a choice given), [[DubInducedPlotHole in the English version]] the correct answer is "hamburgers".
* In ''VideoGame/ProfessorLaytonAndTheCuriousVillage'', the protagonists get suspicious about [[spoiler:Inspector Chelmey]] when they find a newspaper article mentioning the man's love for sweets when previously he had violently objected to being served tea and cakes. They question him about this and mention his wife's name... only they give the wrong name, and he proceeds to parrot the mistake, exposing himself as an impostor.

* In a ''VideoGame/Yakuza6'' sidequest, Kiryu receives a call from a scammer pretending to be Taichi, one of his wards at his orphanage in Okinawa, who asks that Kiryu give a large sum of money to an accomplice in the name of helping a sick friend. Smelling a rat, when Kiryu goes to meet with the accomplice he pointedly asks if "Taichi" ever mentioned how he got the "huge burn scar" on his face (which, of course, the real Taichi doesn't have), and is almost dumbfounded at how quickly the scammers exposed themselves.
** The next game, ''VideoGame/YakuzaLikeADragon'', has the assasssin Mirror Face perfectly disguise himself as Adachi while attacking the real one. Ichiban asks them some questions about traffic laws, where one of them is clueless while the other gives out the correct answers. Ichiban then attacks the latter, which turns out to be Mirror Face after all, who complains how the real Adachi could have ever worked at the DMV with such incompetence.
