Remember this from papers please?



Turns out there is a real life version of this from the Department of Homeland Security that's publicly accessible.

https://www.cbp.gov/sites/default/files/documents/Carrier%20Information%20Guide-%20English.pdf

It's uncanny how close to the game the real life document is (or how good of a job the game did in copying the real one, if that's what happened).

Cover


Convoluted rules that differ by country of origin and a lot of other stuff


Basic documents


Advanced documents


Slightly different versions of the same exact stamp (which I always thought was bullshit in Papers Please but I guess not)


Needing to be familiar with certain features of selected foreign passports (which I also thought was BS in Papers Please)


I should do another playthough.

Are you just amazed that a video game that parodies real life immigration and border control would reference real life immigration and border control or am I missing something here

The creator got the idea for the game after dealing with all the immigration and border controls while he traveled. Only makes sense that he used examples of real life to mimic the game.

Also, durrrrrrrr

You follow the path
fitting into an infinite pattern.

Yours to manipulate, to destroy and rebuild.

Now, in the quantum moment
before the closure
when all become one.

One moment left.
One point of space and time.

I know who you are.

You are Destiny.

Oh man I just re-started Papers Please (since I never got the best ending last time) and I just found out you only have to feed/warm your family every other day.

It's so much more relaxing now.
