Set on a ghost ship in 1808, gameplay footage revealed to date implies that it's a kind of time-travel detective experience, the player charged with piecing together the events that led to these skeletons on the deck and in the cabins, several of which quite clearly belong(ed) to people who didn't die of natural causes.
Instead, we've got Return of the Obra Dinn to look forward to. It's center-aligned, which soothes my OCD, and the multi-touch controls feel natural for manipulating all the paperwork."

Papers, Please was ported from its original PC platform to iOS devices in late 2014, introducing even more players to its roller coaster of when rights are wrong and when the only way to keep your family alive, until next week at least, is to work dirty in your booth, taking bribes and even turning away immigrants whose paperwork is completely correct.
