I've been sitting on this game for years.

My husband is an immigrant. We were scared of border checkpoints for 6+ years. Not because he'd done anything wrong, but because in the US, your fate is up to the officer you run into that day. So despite him having all the necessary paperwork to take a trip to Canada on our many Great Lakes vacations, we waited until he was a citizen.

Papers Please is obviously saying something. It's not exactly subtle about it. But to me, the reality of being tossed around by the American immigration system made it something I couldn't spend too long playing.

I won't be rating this game.
