Have you ever wanted to be the helpless tool of an uncaring bureaucracy? (http://dukope.com/)

Well, now you can be.

To quote the description:

A Dystopian Document Thriller.

The communist state of Arstotzka has ended a 6-year war with neighboring Kolechia and reclaimed its rightful half of the border town, Grestin.

Your job as immigration inspector is to control the flow of people entering the Arstotzkan side of Grestin from Kolechia. Among the throngs of immigrants and visitors looking for work are hidden smugglers, spies, and terrorists. Using only the documents provided by travelers and the Ministry of Admission's primitive inspect, search, and fingerprint systems you must decide who can enter Arstotzka and who will be turned away or arrested.

It's surprisingly fun.

It's also up on Greenlight, so if you like it, give it a vote.

The beta is pretty good for a little bit, the full release looks like it incorporates several more factors into it.

Hehe, it actually is quite good. Nice bit of dark humour throughout, what with suicide bombers and human trafficers getting through with no way of stopping them, offset by that dude who keeps turning up with dodgy passports drawn with crayons.

Shame the beta ends on day 9, my entire family had just died so I was finally starting to make some money.
