About This Game

The year is 1981, and as a young officer trainee, you are assigned to work at a border post in the mountainous region of Karikatka. Entry into the Acarist People's Republic is strictly regulated by the party and your every move is monitored! The situation at the border escalates when your comrade is killed during one of the interventions...

Document control
Every visitor must have a set of valid documents. Even the slightest discrepancy means refusal of entry. Over time, the number of documents will increase and errors will be more difficult to detect.

Smuggling detection
Our intelligence regularly provides information about suspicious drivers. Search their vehicles using a UV flashlight and then use the appropriate tools to extract the smuggled goods. No amount of contraband should cross the border!

Shootouts
In some situations you will be forced to use firearms. Your station is a constant target for Oberankov's gang attacks, and every away mission carries the risk of a clash with the enemy.

Police chases
Desperate smugglers may attempt to escape from the control zone. It is your duty to stop and arrest them! Buy and upgrade police cars to improve the effectiveness of your pursuit.

Post management
Upgrade your police station to increase its defenses and improve subsequent inspections. However, keep in mind the rising cost of maintaining your station. Successful inspections, foiled smuggling and successful interventions are a few ways to earn cash.

Special assignments
Always be ready to intervene in an emergency. Solve crime puzzles, support your comrades and thwart the Blood Fist rebels. Make decisions that will determine the future of Acaristan.

The game is great, good story, well detailed and quite fun. Worth cause it was on discount, though before buying the game I'd highly suggest for others to think through if they want to spend the money for a game that is finished within one day. Two minor downsides: - Through the game within one day and after that all you can do is repeat the process. - Steering of vehicles is rather bad

The game ties a story alongside a very simple mechanic loop. Grab the driver's papers, scan around the vehicle for various amounts of contraband, ensure the papers line up with 0 discrepancies, send the driver away or offer them passage. This game is similar to that of: "Paper's please" if those reading this are familiar with that title. I've earned all the achievements in the game, and I firmly believe I'll continue to play this title throughout the years whether the same content, or with mods that are available. I haven't personally viewed mods, but I have a hard time believing they don't add amazing mechanics to the game.

It would be amazing if you made a multiplayer mod where one player could be a smuggler and the other a cop. The game is amazig

If you're looking for a chill game about decisions with first person shooting then I think you're gonna like this game. The devs update farely often, and it can be played a few times before running fully out of content. It does get a bit boring after the first playthrough, but let's be real most story games are also like this. I myself enjoyed it for quite a while and is easy to get back into after months of not playing it.

Its a jank 3D version of Papers, Please. Even at 15 hours or so, it goes on a little too long. But if you are looking for something to scratch that Papers, Please itch for awhile, this is it.
