So I had this wild idea pop into my head the other day. What if we took the concept of Papers Please but gave it a horror makeover? Picture this: you’re sitting at your desk late at night reviewing passports. But instead of normal documents you get these eerie photocopies that sometimes look downright terrifying. The images might be distorted or have creepy details you can’t quite explain. It would add such a spine-chilling element to the normally mundane task of checking documents. Can you imagine how unsettling it would be to flip through those passports not knowing what nightmarish image might appear next? I think it could make for a really unique and scary gaming experience. Has anyone else ever thought about mixing bureaucracy with horror like this?
That’s a rad idea! Kinda reminds me of World of Horror with its creepy bureaucratic vibe. Could be awesome if the photos slowly change as you look at them. Might make me think twice about renewing my real passport though!
Sounds like a trippy game idea! Maybe add some creepy sound effects too.
Could have the player slowly lose their grip on reality as the night goes on.
Wonder how they’d handle wrong decisions… spooky consequences?
Love this concept! Mixing bureaucracy and horror is genius.
Could add weird noises or whispers coming from the passports.
As the night goes on, maybe other office objects start looking off too.
Lots of potential to create a really unnerving atmosphere.
Ooh, that’s a cool twist on Papers Please. Sounds like it could be seriously creepy.
I’d love to see some subtle horror elements creep in over time. Maybe the stamps start leaving bloody marks or the ink smears into weird symbols.
Definitely a unique concept that could mess with your head in the best way.
That’s a pretty cool concept. It reminds me a bit of the SCP Foundation stuff, where mundane bureaucracy meets cosmic horror. I could see it working well as a short indie game. Maybe as you process more passports, reality starts to warp around you. The office gets darker, things move in the shadows. Could be a fun way to build tension without relying on jump scares.
