Quite fun with a great storyline. Fun trying to figure out how to have everyone survive (had uncle die as there was no way)

I really like the game, though the content can get a bit heavy - which is kinda the point. The mechanics build on top of each other in a nice way. I HIGHLY recommend getting a cheat sheet to glance at to save some time for the issuing cities though. Flipping through the manual can become tedious.

If you have attention to detail and about 10 hours of time, sit down and play this. Very simple. Builds upon its concepts. Great game, multiple endings.

In my opinion this game is such a classical masterpiece you just have to play it at least once in your lifetime. Basicly a border patrol pixel game which can get where overwhelming and immersive very quickly...

Who knew it would be so engaging and entertaining to be a passport control agent? Love the story and different ways you can play it. Beautifully animated and polished throughout. 10/10

Great game if you're detail oriented and like tediousness. Only complaint is that it isn't very long if you're not a completionist. (Main ending takes 6 hours) (But there's 20 endings so if you're into that)

For a pixel art game where you meticulously check documents as a immigration officer at a border checkpoint, which sounds extremely boring, this game was so fun and hilarious. I wish this game was much longer and had a lot more than the 20 or so endings.
It might not be for everyone since it requires you to pay attention, be detail-oriented and remember a whole bunch of things while the overall complexity creeps up quite a bit over time. As someone who enjoys that sort of thing, I love this game but, at the same time, I can see how it can be quite demanding/taxing for someone.

A masterful blend between storytelling and perpetual stress caused by an increasing workload and a depressing hellscape of the world you live in. One of the best games I have ever played, one that made me depressed yet euphoric when I made enough money to support my family.
Buy it and play it and experience Soviet-era depression, it will change you forever.

One of the most unique games out there. Going for all endings was very interesting. but nothing beats you first playthrough, helping jorji always, of course.
