User reviews

Fun, challenging, addictive

I really enjoyed this game! I was addicted to it for like 4 days straight until I finished with one of the good endings.

Immigrant won’t give me their passport

The games very good and well implemented on mobile, however there is an instance where an immigrant will not give me their passport making it impossible to complete the day. I have to restart the day to get it to work! They will give me an entry ticket but not their passport. Please fix this!

Little Potato Man

You were always my favorite

Attention-to-detail Fun

Really enjoying the game so far…definitely makes you dot your Is and cross your Ts. Wish that the passport would self-center under the approve/deny stamp though…

Asking nicely for landscape orientation

Great game, super fun. Wish there was a landscape version! That would make the game much better and easier to play.
