Papers Please

Those trying to cross the border are a mix of anxious families, weary travelers, and a few confident individuals with well-prepared documents. Among them are desperate people with forged papers, nervously hoping to pass unnoticed. Blending in are the EZIC agents, who carry out secretive missions to undermine the regime, passing messages, smuggling contraband, and gathering intelligence. The rebellion in Arstotzka is a growing force, driven by dissatisfaction with the oppressive government. Rebels, including ordinary citizens and disillusioned officials, operate in secret, planning sabotage and protests. Despite government crackdowns, their resolve remains strong. The border scene reflects the broader struggle in the country, where the inspector’s actions can either strengthen the regime or aid the resistance. Every interaction is a critical moment in the delicate balance of power.
