Capitalist Propaganda

this game makes it look like arstotska is a horrible place to live even though the protagonist can easily sustain a family on a single salary. just obey the rules and everything's fine

The game experience is well adapted, they improve in some areas even

Played this game in PC, then in a touchscreen latop, but this version is very well adapted.

One of the few non-cringe, funny & decent games here

As the title said

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!
