This review contains spoilers
This was a great surprise!
There is so much content here, and I’m not talking about inflated gameplay. There is a lot of really good variation in the game, considering that the main focus was the Papers Please styled country border job. At the end of the game, there are so many things to check that you’ll most likely develop strategies to be more precise. The gameplay and graphics are ok, they don’t get in the way of the fun.
Unfortunately, it does not run that well, I got a bunch of dips under 50fps (mostly while using the faster police car). The story is there just to say that it has one, and both main endings are very weak, and I think that the game lacks more upgrades and interactions between upgrading your base and the gameplay.
This game is such a gem, totally worth it when you’re in the mood for something chill that does not take itself that serious. It is a good game to get off of all that “gaming vibe” and just have some fun.

Okay okay, so imagine... papers please right? But it is 3D?!!? 🤯 Craziest concept.
There are also so many more features than a pure 3d papers please and pretty good depth.
Only encountered a few bugs, and minor annoying game design choices but some can be altered in the setting tab, and others are soon to be fixed I'm sure.
I will say, I'm not a huge fan of the amount of driving that is required though, especially since it's not very exciting, at all, except ofcourse for the Crossy Road nature of the AI when they drive full speed into a rock.. but maybe that's just russia ionknow.

Pegaram Papers Please e tentaram adicionar elementos de simulação e shooter em cima.
Em questão de jogabilidade, é padrão de jogos simulator, tu faz um bando de atividades pra juntar dinheiro e dar upgrade no seu posto, o problema é que essas atividades ficam repetitivas rápido e o jogo acaba ficando cansativo. Os segmentos de ação onde você tem que perseguir alguém fugindo ou atirar são terríveis, parece que só foram colocados de última hora pra dar uma diferenciada no gameplay.
Já em narrativa, o jogo é uma propaganda anticomunista rasa, cheia de estereótipos e sem sutileza nenhuma. Não me incomodaria se fossem críticas, mas o jogo lida com a história de maneira caricata, parece membro do mbl falando de comunismo no twitter.

Until the last, I didn’t want to being too picky, like a parody of Papers, Please in 3D - done quite well, no lags, no bugs, good graphics, enough variety in car checks,
But still, the game couldn`t deviate much from the usual simulator, if you want to complete it in one run in 1-2 days, then you will simply lose a lot of time on repetitivity, doing the same actions, but if you play 2 hours a day, to relax, I can recommend,
There are no complaints about checking the cars themselves, you need to work exactly 30 days and every 5-7 new rules appear that incoming people must follow, you check only 3-4 cars a day, and almost every day you they must take the arrested to hard labor and sometimes also stop in another place to hand over contraband, or buy tools in the store, very often bandits ambush you on the road, very often they attack your base, which you need to defend every time for about 5 minutes + very often you need to drive somewhere, to also help shoot the gangsters, and the shooting here .. this is not even the level of the "Polish shooter", it's just some kind of basic shooting mechanic, where you just click on the target, but there is no recoil, no impact, although after receiving the first machine gun it becomes a little less dull, why make so much "shooter" in the game about checking papers, especially when the mechanics are still so bad, I don't understand, but driving cars, by the way, is surprisingly pleasant here.
The plot here is anti-communistic, you can take the side of the rebels, or you can stay with the authorities, or you can maneuver and take for yourself from both, classic, but somehow basic, without a twist.. atmospheric, of course, but still, up to at least the heels of "Papers, Please" - as the moon, they could at least make the possibility of dialogues with the characters and their some kind of personal story branches, the workers here are just empty functions that are needed to shoot back from ambushes, if you upgrade them to shoot betters - you shoucl pay more for their daily salary.
But still, this is a good opportunity, from a technical point of view, to plunge into the 3d world of a border checkpoint in an authoritarian country. Wastes your time a little, nothing surprises, but satisfies.

До последнего не хотел душнить, как пародия на Papers, Please в 3D - сделано достаточно качественно, ни лагов, ни багов, хорошая графика, достаточное разнообразие в проверках машин,
Но всё же, игра не смогла сильно отойти от обычного симулятора, если вы хотите пройти её залпом за 1-2 дня, то просто потеряете кучу времени на репетативности, делая одни и те же действия, а вот если будете играть часа по 2 в день, чисто отдохнуть, то могу посоветовать,
Именно к проверке самих машин претензий нет, вам надо отработать ровно 30 дней и каждые где-то 5-7 появляются новые условия, которые въезжающие люди должны соблюдать, при этом вы проверяете всего по 3-4 машины в день, но почти каждый день вы должны отвозить арестованных на каторгу и ещё иногда заезжать отдавать контрабанду, или закупаться инструментами в магазине, очень часто на дороге вам устраивают засаду, очень часто на вашу базу нападают, которую надо отстаивать каждый раз по 5 минут+очень часто надо куда-то сгонять, чтобы также помочь перестрелять бандюганов, а шутер здесь.. это даже не уровень "польского шутера", это просто какая-то базовая деревянная механика стрельбы, где ты просто кликаешь цель, но ни отдачи, никакого импакта нету, хотя после получения первого автомата становится чуть-чуть менее уныло, зачем делать так много "шутера" в игре про проверку бумажек, тем более когда механика ещё так плоха, я не понимаю, а вот водить машины, тут, кстати, на удивление приятно.
Сюжет тут является антикоммунистическим, вы можете встать на сторону повстанцев, а можете остаться с властью, а можете лавировать и брать себе и от тех, и от других, всё по классике, но как-то всё базово, без изюминки, атмосферно, конечно, но всё же до хотя-бы пятки "Papers, Please" тут как до луны, могли бы хоть сделать возможность диалогов с персонажами и их какие-то персональные ветки развития, работники тут просто пустые функции, которые нужны, чтобы быстрее отстреливаться от засад, если ты их вкачаешь, и, чтобы с тебя списывалось больше за их ежедневное зп.
Но всё же это нелохая, именно с технической точки зрения, возможность окунуться в 3d мир погран-пункта в авторитарной стране. Немного тратит ваше время, ничем не удивляет, но удовлетворяет.

This publisher's games (PlayWay S.A) feel like they are cheaply made. But, very fun nonetheless. This game has you playing as a border police in late 1980s inspired soviet union. The base gameplay is very similar to Papers, Please where you have to check drivers papers and check for any discrepancies, with circumstances and laws changing every single day. As a border officer, your duties also extend to defending your checkpoint, chasing and arresting criminals. There is also a story, with multiple choices, but it only affects the ending. Shooting is horrible and floaty, so is the driving. Overall, a good game to relax in.
