Choices: Stories You Play vs Papers Please
Choices: Stories You Play
Choices: Stories You Play is a choice-based collection of episodic stories that mostly consists of player-driven content and is quite similar to another game, Episode - Choose Your Story. In this game, you'll get to play out various stories via fun character animations and brilliant story choices. From the among the choices provided though, there are these special choices that are obviously the one to pick if you want a guaranteed positive outcome but will cost you diamonds. Like Episode, you won't be able to play multiple stories in a day since there's a limit, but if you're willing to pay real money, you can circumvent this restriction as well.In many ways, including the one aforementioned, this game is literally a clone of Episode (or vice versa depending on which app launches first). The only major differences between both games would probably be their content (the stories) and maybe the graphics (specifically the art style)... both of which are preferable in Choices.
If you can't put down Episode, you'll then enjoy playing Choices. Both games are incredibly similar even to the naked eye and you don't really need a website algorithm to tell you that Episode is the closest similar game you'll ever find for Choices.
Papers Please
Papers Please is a pretty dark, story-rich, point and click game where you're sole and yet most difficult job as an immigration officer is to approve or deny a throng of people, some of which are good but of course there will be smugglers, spies and terrorists, entering into your country of Arstotzka from the war-devastated neighbor, Kolechia. Thankfully, you'll have some information at hand to help you make your decision. There are lie-detectors, documents, fingerprints, inspections and other primitive methods along with, of course, a series of questions and follow-up questions that you can ask.Your every decision will determine the lives of those who go through your immigration booth and enter Arstotzka as well as for those who were turned back to eke out a living in a war-torn country. Your morality and empathy will be greatly tested in this game.
Papers Please is among one of the most impactful games of, perhaps, all time. The game is simple enough for anyone to get into and yet it challenges your very beliefs, your concepts and your morality as you stamp those immigration papers with the words "Approved" or "Denied". If you are looking for a thought-provoking game, Papers Please is just perfect for you.
