Reviews:

Metacritic (92)



______________________________________

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.

______________________________________

Warning:

This game contains mature themes, non-photographic nudity, and brief moments of pixelated violence.

    I remember this being (intentionally) quite cramped on pc, does it play well on a typically sized mobile phone screen?

    This just sounds like an actual job, but without getting actual money

    I thought the same, I can only imagine it’s our AI overlords subcontracting their work to the kind of people who’d enjoy denying people access to a country and do it for free.

    I found this very addictive for about 5 hours, then dropped it. Didn't quite meet the hype for me personally. YMMV.

    In fairness, even if your enjoyment tailed off, £1.79 for 5 hours entertainment isn’t too bad.

    Yeah, love those rewards. Bought myself the new Monkey Island release last week with them.

    Arstotzka so great, passport not required. Right?

    Can you buy a DLC of the barge?

    Would suggest to anyone that enjoyed this game to check out Return of the Obra Dinn as well (from the same one-man-band developer).

    This game and the concept behind it is highly recommended by Klaus Schwab. He has a hilarious review of it on his twitch channel where he jokes about making it compulsory for everybody on planet earth!!!
    LOLz what a scamp!! HAHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHHAAA
