Hilarious...and Oddly Authentic

This game has a special draw for me, as I'm an actual consular officer in real life...I never thought I would pay money to play a game vaguely based on my actual job, but here we are. The game does a good job of capturing both mundane interviews and more complex cases. And some of the applicants are startlingly reminiscent of people I encounter on the actual job - the guy who can't get his paperwork straight but REALLY wants to go. The people who are not trying to commit fraud but give you near-useless non-answers. The people who do the same but ARE trying to commit fraud. The devs did a great job of ramping up the amount of information you need to routinely be looking, which is sometimes true to life in how it sometimes unnecessarily complicates certain routine issuance cases. Game is well-designed and charming, and definitely worth a good look at this price point.
