How it feels

a tense, bureaucratic simulation where you wield power over fictional lives while navigating absurd corporate rules and unsettling revelations.

What players say

Players compare it to Papers, Please and say it captures the feel-good tedium of document checking but often disappoints with a repetitive loop and a story that feels irrelevant or unfinished. Some find it addictively fun, while others call its choices meaningless and say its body language lacks impact.
