Sep 18, 2020Booth outstays its own conceit, but is so often excellent along the way I still want others to experience it. Until it loses its head, it’s a smart reinterpretation of 1984, an intelligent commentary on the current state of certain rather large dictator-run nations, and an ingenious evolution of the Papers Please concept. Right up until it isn’t any more.

Aug 3, 2020Booth is an impressive debut with plenty of depth. It may feel a little too close to Papers, Please from a gameplay perspective for comfort, but it delivers a surprisingly touching story with well-crafted characters alongside its puzzle gameplay and wonderfully haunting music.
