I played this game at the weekend and it's pretty much a textbook example of a game being art.

Papers, Please (www.dukope.com)

You play a guy who has been given the job of carrying out border control in the fictional land of Arstotzka. You carry out orders from above to make sure you only let the right people into the country. You do this by inspecting their papers.

Meanwhile you have a wife and kid and extended family at home who need food and warmth from your paycheck. But the job gets increasingly difficult to do as the country imposes more and more regulations for their border control.

I keep meaning to check this out, I saw it up on RPG.net a while back.

How long is the game? I know a lot of Youtubers have done it already, but most only play like twenty minutes. I've heard that it's really quick in its current state though.

Played it but not on camera. Was a cool time but not something I'd play every day for sure.

There's only a couple of levels right now, because the game is in beta.
