This game was fun, similar to papers please, but with checking food. There's different characters to talk to, you can show and give them items to gain info. But it does drag on a bit at the end, there are quite a few 'filler' days where nothing happens. Even with sped up dialogue and skipping task unlocked (once you complete an ending), it seems like you need to sit through a lot of stuff to try and get a different ending so I'm not gonna try for a different one.

Interesting lore and story, good Papers Please-esque gameplay, different choices. Watch out what choices you make, you might need to replay several levels if you make the "wrong" ones and get stuck Solid game

Playtime: 25.4 hrs I used to think that games like "papers please" aren't my cup of tea not because of the gameplay (coz I like this aspect very much) but because of the nature of the game, that you are deciding the fate for the characters in the game which strangely makes me feel guilty if the outcome is not good even if I know they are not real people. But I guess people change with age because now I no longer feel the guilt as much as in the past which means I get to enjoy the gameplay and the story of the game in a whole. For this game I like the gameplay, and the story is okay if not a bit predictable and old-fashioned. Also, the game makes full achievements relatively easy because you can skip the actual game play and just speed through the story for lots of the achievements.
