Description
Congratulations. The October labor lottery is complete. Your name was pulled.
For immediate placement, report to the 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. Glory to Arstotzka.
The communist state of Arstotzka has just ended a 6-year war with neighboring Kolechia and reclaimed its rightful half of the border town, Grestin. Your job as immigration inspector is to control the flow of people entering the Arstotzkan side of Grestin from Kolechia. Among the throngs of immigrants and visitors looking for work are hidden smugglers, spies, and terrorists. Using only the documents provided by travelers and the Ministry of Admission's primitive inspect, search, and fingerprint systems you must decide who can enter Arstotzka and who will be turned away or arrested.

Mindless work is not fun.
Why does a game like this exist? I get the point of this game as it is trying to illustrate though gaming how life of a communist worker is. How everyday they do the same monotonous job for little to no pay I get it. But the thing is that being a communist worker is not fun. Videogames are about having fun. This game don't even function as an educational game as it is based on fictional nations. I can't recommend this game.

Not as good as I thought
Going off the first page reviews this game looked awesome and different. After playing it for about 20 minutes, I'm honestly confused how people think so. The first few levels have me screwed. Woman walks in, picture doesn't look like them, looks like a guy, name is also a guy name. Denied them, get a warning. Had that happened 3 times in a row. Though I don't like that is on a time limit. I would rather seeing so many per day over how fast you can get them through.
