Papers, Please

I'm making a list of the games I play and trying to make friends with those who play the same game.
If you don't know, Papers, Please is a 2013 game created by Lucas Pope. It is a border checkpoint game where you are the inspector and checks immigrants' and native's passports/ permits/ etc, things that are needed to go to the country Arstotzka, either for visiting, traveling to somewhere else, or immigrating legally to Arstotzka.
The game is set in 1982 when a war between Kolechia and Arstotzka just ended and the city of Grestin is separated into West Grestin (Kolechia) and Arstotzka (East Grestin).
You can inspect immigrants' and native's papers and discover discrepancies. You can either accept, deny, or detain the immigrant/native. You can also check fingerprints and search inside parts of immigrants' or natives' if there is possible suspicion. There are also many interesting stories inside the game and a total of 20 endings.
Overall, the game is quite depressing as it shows the daily life of a citizen in a communist country but sometimes also sad, happy, or other emotions.

Glory to Arstotzka!
