Greetings! The communist state of Arstotzka had just ended a 6-year war with neighboring Kolechia and reclaimed its rightful half of the border town, Grestin. Now, you have just been named as a stationary immigration officer to the Ministry of Admission at Grestin Border Checkpoint. An apartment will be provided for you and your family in East Grestin. Expect a Class-8 dwelling.  

• Your job as an immigration officer is to control the flow of people passing through the border and carefully examine their papers
• Decide who gets to pass through, who gets to be denied, or worse comes to worse, who needs to be imprisoned
• Use their documents, fingerprints, and different items to find out if they are visitors, workers, or spies/terrorists.

Reviews

Well-paced, straight-forward game play combines with vivid storytelling to make into a fantastic game. More than a tale of bureaucratic spot the difference, Papers, Please is a game of intrigue and excitement balanced by fear for your family.

Critical Hit    

Papers, Please is anything but a standard adventure, but beneath the seemingly unappealing premise of bureaucratic drudgery and human misery lies a fascinating game of choices, surprises, and intrigue.
