Love Island: The Game vs Papers Please
Love Island: The Game
Love Island: The Game is a romance-themed interactive story that is quite similar to Episode - Choose Your Story andChapters - Interactive Stories in terms of its gameplay. Inspired by ITV's hit reality TV show, Love Island, this game will put you into the shoes of one of the hot ladies, letting you choose your own smoking hot dates and create your own drama. Like the other games in the genre, you can customize your avatar's looks as well from time to time just so you can unlock the best possible plot for your character.
The only complaint that many players have voiced is that the diamonds that are needed to purchase unique clothes to open up new dialogue choices or to skip the waiting time in between parts of the story can be very difficult to earn as a free-to-play player. Expect to spend some real money on this game if you want to enjoy the best plotline of the game.
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.
