The value story
It has never been cheaper than $2.99. That was March 2024. Its cuts run 70 percent off as a rule. There have been 64 in the 8 years tracked, about 5 weeks apart.
On value it sits in the top 7 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 89 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 81 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Kynseed ($24.99, scores 65) beats it on value, while it beats Little Witch in the Woods ($19.99, scores 62).
71 from critics against 82 percent from players, and the player number comes from people who own the game.
Steam's global achievement data puts about 11 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. On an 11-hour game, the hours short of it still count in its price per hour. Of the 535 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 6 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2020 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 59 percent of the 202 reviews written there were positive, against 82 percent overall, and those are 9 percent of everything written about it.

What players say
I wish I could give a mixed rating. The political dystopia post-Brexist displayed in the game really hasn't aged well. The story plays heavily into the Brexit panic of the time. Years later, that dystopian future never happened, and much of it comes across as fearmongering in hindsight. The setting actually feels more reminiscent of 20th-century communism than anything related to post-Brexit. The political writing...
I'm a big fan of the Paper's Please style of games, so this got recommended to me at some point, so I picked it up and I gotta say, I was just disappointed. I discovered partway through that I was just having zero fun playing the game, and I think a large part of that comes from how quickly they expect you to be checking people in, a lot of the goals seem just about unattainable unless you're just blindly accepting...
Ending is VERY lacklustre considering how much of a slog the late game is. Fun for maybe 2-6 hours
