What players say
Players say it is like Papers, Please but with more thinking and no time limit. The tutorial alone takes hours and the complexity grows satisfyingly. However, reviewers report game-breaking softlocks that force restarts, and the color grading can make it hard to identify people. Linux users note crashes under Proton.
