- GDD Very well-made GDD. There are details on all the points, and it was very clear. Gameplay As a Papers, Please and Contraband Police aficionado, I hit the ground running. The gameplay is enjoyable for us bureaucrats. It's very novel that the weapons get to choose their owner. Weapons are cats. I had some trouble with the rankings designation. The classic bronze, silver, and gold are intuitive, but the other ones? Is Emerald better than a Ruby or a Gold? I have no idea. A short ranking list would be good. Same with the social status for the folks not familiar with the European caste system. Art I see the inspiration. It amazes me how a simple design can still have plenty of personality. Well done. Sound design At the time of this rating, there's no BGM or SFX implemented. Even simple SFX like a ding when you get your next customer and the sound of paper shuffling when they toss the documents would go a long way. Last thoughts I am sorry adventurer, you can't handle my strongest weapons. You are only rank Ruby. You could die if you yield this weapon. It's an enchanted triple axe; you need a permit for that. I really enjoyed your take on the Papers, Please formula. Great job.

A fun experience, a great concept and with a little more polish could see myself sinking hours into it!
What I liked
What I would change
Altogether It was a fun 5 mins!
I like the concept of the game! Scouring through the documents as fast as you can and the setting really makes those parts of the NPCs much more interesting. My one complaint is that the font choice was kind of difficult to read at times, especially when you're trying to find stuff quickly. Is a fun game to play though!
This is a great jam game- a unique premise that you'd only get by fully embracing the jam theme, and turning it into fun/strong game mechanics. Theres some reading to do but its not a negative trait. As a bonus, some of the names are funny :D If I was to give some constructive feedback, I would say that the font could be more readable for long format text like tutorials/explanations, although its okay to sometimes have some fancy fonts in some other places.
i absolutely adore these kinds of games so i had a blast trying out yours! ðŸ˜
it took me a bit of getting used to what document was what since there was no visual guide in the left-side guide but it was pretty smooth sailing afterwards! it was a lot of fun and i can definitely see myself playing this for hours 💙
