Papers, Please has long been one of my favorite games of all time, so the concept of Monthly Dystopia instantly appealed to me. This might not be quite as groundbreaking as Papers, Please, but it gets a lot closer than I would have expected!
As the name suggests, Monthly Dystopia casts you as a drone working for the propaganda department of a 1984-style authoritarian government. Your daily grind is disrupted when a local elderly care center is burned down and your grandfather comes to live with you for a month. Before long, you find yourself caught up in a plot with local resistance forces that could end in you escaping this broken country—if you survive.
Seeing as a big part of the game is focused on the drudgery of day-to-day life in a dystopia, the gameplay isn't always edge-of-your-seat stuff. I spent a lot of time filing away documents at work, cooking soup for grandpa, and making trips to the local market to spend my very limited money on essentials. But those boring tasks make the resistance scheming even more exciting when it breaks up the monotony.
Monthly Dystopia also deserves big props for its lovely black-and-white art style. The dull visuals play right into the themes of the game, and infrequent bursts of unsettling soundtrack also add to the atmosphere. It's great stuff and helps make this one depressing authoritarian regime that's well worth experiencing for yourself.

Monthly Dystopia: Game review
Monthly Dystopia is a rather complex text-based RPG game with a compelling plot. The game offers a highly compelling narrative in which you must behave admirably but can also flee to freedom if you are aware of the risks and avoid being apprehended by the so-called dictator. The game's gameplay is really straightforward; all you have to do is pick an answer from a list of dialogue options, and the game will proceed accordingly. You might even get stuck in the game at some point, which is incredibly annoying since no matter what choice we select, the game will just get stuck in a loop with no way out of it. I had to restart the game to go beyond that. I found it to be quite grating, and I didn't care for it at all.

Glory to Arstotska 10/10
Paper's please is a border patrol simulation where you are a border officer for the Arstotskan government. At the end of your shift you must learn how to balance expenses for your family (or just let them die). Apparently, money is more important than citizens as a measly 5 dollars in debt is enough to land you in jail. And as every totalitarian goverment has it, there a revolution ongoing. This man is a messenger for the Order of the Ezic Star. If you ever choose to go down this route and render the revolution successfully, a new government will be established. However, get caught and you will face the highest of consequences.
