    One could write a graduate thesis about the political ramifications this game had on an entire generation. But that same person would not be allowed to cross into fictional Arstotzka with their thesis, and that's the point. This game belongs in a museum, period. Play it while you can.

    I know my hours only say 33 minutes but trust me I have played this over and over on my old steam account. I would recommend this extremely, it is a classic game. I do get the shit scared out of me any time I get a pink slip for marking something wrong though.

    The game is OK but felt too much like work. I like that it throws difficult decisions at you (e.g. will you separate husband and wife if one has outdated documents) but the choices you make have very little consequences. I got a few different endings, and got one I'm happy with, but didn't feel like exploring all of them. Not a bad game, but I was expecting a lot more.
