not bad

good bones, abandoned by developer.

Democracy is non negotiable

This game is fun but has a lot issues. The border patrol aspect of the game is fun but repetitive and easy. Unlike similar games like paper please the complexity of the inspections never increases substantially. The game will randomly introduce certain rules for your inspection but after a few days the rules are reset and a new set of special rules is added. The complexity of the inspections never builds. In papers please by the end game you are checking for vaccinations, entry documents, passport forgeries, smuggling, and diplomatic papers just to name a few, while many of these tasks exist in Contraband Police you never really have to watch out for more than one special circumstance at time . There is also no time limit to border inspections, while this may sound like a positive the time limit at the end of each round combined with the mountain of paperwork the inspector must check adds a level of suspense and challenge. I never felt like there was any challenge in the inspections of Contraband Police.

The errand boy aspect of the game is tedious and repetitive. You are sent all over the border of Arcaistan to stock and resupply the border checkpoint. At first this is fun but after Dropping off the prisoners, buying supplies at vlads, and dropping of seized contraband at the police station 10 times it becomes repetitive and grindy

I will say that the border upgrade aspect of the game is incredibly fun. Being able to hire new guards and upgrade existing is a major plus and almost makes the grind worth it.

This game has a lot of potential but i wouldn't recommended it at full price. Around $10-15 dollars seems like a fair price for the game in its current state.

Great game

I got this game on a deep discount and I still feel ripped off. The series hasn't progressed technically since farcy 4 and in some ways farcry 6 takes several steps backwards. Total waste of an amazing actor as the main antagonist. Save your money and go play farcry 5 again.

This is a great game but $25 is too much, if it was $5 it would probably be one of the most popular games out there

probably one of the worst games on steam lol.

nothing but pain agony and suffering

I have played this game on and off for around 7 years now on an account with the wargaming launcher. Let me tell you right now, there is only pain and agony to find in this game. This game is pay to win, the developers have consistently made decisions to make gameplay as unfun and grindy as possible. Wargaming’s goal in developing this game is not to make a fun product, their goal is to make an addictive game and take your money away.

Bottom line, this game is pay to win, and this game IS NOT FUN, this game is designed to be as unbalanced as possible to get you to pay more money for a small relief from the agony that is this game.
