TLDR: If you like papers please give this a try. Games pretty short though and have to do multiple playthroughs if you want all the endings. If you're a fan of something like papers please but want you be want to be a psychiatrist instead of a border guard this is the game for you. It can be a little confusing when you first start because it just throws you in there. There are instructions for all the tools you use though and for the most part it's forgiving for messing up a time or two when you're first starting. They're 9 endings and the game is pretty short per playthrough. (2-3 Hours) I also picked this game up on it's anniversary sale as well for a 1$ so that's a win.

Honestly, I love playing Papers, Please and I usually don’t like other games that try to copy the same mechanics. I saw this game for 1€, loved the aesthetic, and since I’m interested in psychology, I thought: why not? Damn… in the end, I honestly liked it even more than Papers, Please. The morality is way more conflicting, the choices are much harder, and the gameplay is both more fun and way more stressful at the same time. I’ll remember this experience for a long time. I really don’t understand why this game isn’t talked about more, because for 1€ it’s an absolute steal. I would recommend everyone to play it. Masterpiece. 10/10.

short, multiple endings, but a fun, emotional story with a charming artstyle, and a satisfying gameplay loop. definitely worth the money, especially on 1 dollar sale.
