I have a soft spot for dense satire about something I don't know much about, and this is definitely that. The mix of "Papers Please" bureaucracy and life sim gives them lots of room to have fun with the satire, and there's already plenty of branching options within this one-week demo. It's paced well, too; I appreciate how the first day makes it painlessly easy to be honest, only to start to introduce home expenses you can't quite stretch on your starting salary to tempt you into just a little bit of corruption. As a treat.

It's too bad this didn't end up getting developed past the early access demo, because I think they were on to something fun.
