Isn't it strange that none of the passengers carry luggage, even a small bag, and there is no possibility of searching it?

Any games, like fan games that have come out over the last what, 11 years?

I really like the story of papers please, and the whole idea of finding incorrect information with consistently changing rules. I think its a game idea that should be inspected more.

Quick Question

i know that there are lots of people who pronounce Arstotzka differently, but how does Lucas Pope pronounce it?

to me, it seems like how the creator says it, that's how it's cannonacily said. also please give me a source

without spoilers, is there a lore reason as to how you're automatically fined for incorrect choices?

is there a lore reason? if not, and it's just a game being a game that's one thing.

but for me I felt like I gave it my own reasoning.

in Artotska, the government really knows who should be allowed and who shouldn't be allowed. their surveillance is invasive and no one has privacy. They give someone a menial job as a toll worker to not only keep them occupied for the day (so they can't drift away from the government regime and think for themselves or otherwise) and it also keeps them dependent on the job, again making sure they rely on the government and that they don't stray too far away from the government's regime or else they'd lose their job and be locked up as what happens in the "death screens".

that's just my idea but does anyone else know if there's a reason in the lore? or is it just the game being a game? I'm only a few days in so there may or may not be an explanation which is why I requested no spoilers. Thanks
