@@ChadIsYou still get paid for denials and you can't detain anyone this early on. Plus detaining takes time so once you get good at the game it's better to just deny people quickly until you're required to give the reason stamp

East Grestin is Ivan’s favorite Arstotzkan city. Also, East is Ivan’s favorite cardinal direction. Also, cardinal is Ivan’s favorite bird. This passport is denied. *STAMP*
@@tophatcat9996 it's funny, not frustrating you can't be flawless on your first playthrough, specially in a game like paper's please, where is the fun in that?
Considering they've never played this game before, they were kinda getting into the swing of things by the end. Having two sets of eyes actually seems to be helping! Although, seeing how everyone is cold, sick, and/or hungry, I feel like things might get worse before they get better.
I know right? Literally everytime I've watched people play this, they're like "class 8 dwelling, that must be really fancy~" and I'm like it's literally an apartment 🤣
Plus Class 8 is the lowest dwelling you can have. Since you upgrade to a Class 7 and I think 6 (if you can afford the rent that is). So they literally slapped you into the worst housing imaginable, that is likely a small apartment crowded with multiple family members. This entire game is a subtle jab at how terrible Communism is. It’s a parody of East and West Germany during the cold war, or at least shares similarities. You do all this hard work, with what I assume is very little (if any training) and you get paid terribly for a (eventually) dangerous job. To the point where you may need to take bribes just to have enough money.
Ooh boy, I can already smell the frustration rising off the veterans of this game. He's gonna be lucky to have one family member left by the end of this. Either way, I'm glad he's playing it, it's bound to be entertaining.
I got some anxiety buildup at first due to their pacing but it's actually 100% ok because they're learning the game, it was easy to let all that go and just enjoy it. I just hope they keep with it until they get a good ending.
He's doing great, probably better than most. Reminder, he's ALSO DOING A SHOW WHILE PLAYING. Which requires more concentration than just playing by yourself.
so a couple pointers: start highlighting the discrepancies with the red ! button in the bottom right. this unlocks more dialogue from the person you're checking and sometimes they'll present you with a sympathetic story and you must decide whether or not it's worth the citation to let them in (3 citations causes you to lose your job iirc? or lose money). there's also the opportunity to earn tokens which are essentially just achievements the last issue in the video is bc when you asked the person what their purpose was / how long their stay is, they gave an answer that doesn't match their entry permit paper you earn more money based on how many people you can get through the check point, so you have incentive to check these details quickly & to interrogate discrepancies jic they have an explanation and can be approved I love this game so much, it really satisfies my hypervigilant mind & I hope they keep playing!! They would absolutely love Jorgi 🥺
I know you get paid more, the more people you check; but are they required to *_enter_* in order to get paid, or do they simply need to pass through the checkpoint? I.E, do you still get paid for denials?
That also matches what we saw here. The number stated at the end of day matched the number correctly processed, whether approved or denied. Personally, that seems to incentivize *not* hunting up the specific rules and just rejecting them, since they were not penalized in game for doing so.@@TurplePurtle.
The entire video, I felt uncomfortable that he didn’t use the inspect mode every time there were discrepancies. They ended up becoming the most strict officers than they act.
Some things you can just deny as soon as you see a discrepancy, it's not like person can have a second non-expired 0assport eithvhim in this game. Other things should be checked like a missing document that the person might have on him but forgot to present
I hope they'll realise after their first run that you can interrogate even when you know they have wrong stuff, see their side and be empathetic and let them him even if it costs you a penalty
You know for a fact there is a 50/50 chance they'll finish this run after making like thirty errors in one day, and a 5% chance they'll see any point to a second run. XD
My jaw literally dropped: YOU'VE NEVER DONE PAPERS PLEASE FOR THE SHOW?!?!?! Dude this new year of grumps is like a FEAST. I'm so excited for this episode lol.
@@fuzzyotterpaws4395 When you've played the game for a while you realise you will get more money for your family the faster you work. So for people who have played the game a lot, this playthrough is slow. But that's fine because it's their first time.
@@fuzzyotterpaws4395 wow people really took this comment as negative huh. Also you can def go much faster but arins learning so i dont expect him to. Hes getting about 3 or 4 people through a day which is why his family at the end is almost dying so yeah he could be doing it better but that doesnt really matter. My original comment was just commenting on hes going too slow to keep everyone alive that doesnt mean i think the videos bad I watch game grump videos to laugh along side with danny about how bad arin is at video games. And thats why its funny.
Holy crap yes! I wanted a GG playthrough of this game for so long. I love the game and I hope you guys will do a full playthrough. You'll probably get a bad ending the first time unless you use a walkthrough but, no worries. This is not a comment you have to read in Dale Gribble's voice.

As much as I love this game and am happy that game grumps are playing it.... Oh my fucking god. Arin is so slow and doesn't interrogate. This will definitely be something
Truly hope they will do more than one run of this because the first run already died on day 1-2 when they take 5 times longer than needed to read every text especially during the very easy days. 😅 That being said, I'm glad they are properly figuring out all the details (except forgetting the interrogation button immediately), so they will have better eye for the details later. But my god, for veterans who have played the game before.. Seeing them move so slowly was like torture, especially when they already agreed that things are looking good and still double and triple check stuff before stamping as slowly as possible.. But honestly I'm glad they didn't fully skip the tutorial / instruction parts
SO EXCITED YOU'RE PLAYING THIS!!! ♥♥♥ Also, you're paid by how many people you get to get through (approved or denied as long as it's done correctly), so the faster you go, the more money you get ♥
@@chefdano3474 true, though he is noticing the lack of money he has which is like the first indicator that he needs to speed up a bit. And of course later on the citations will start piling up.
Boy, I feel like this one might not get the greatest views, but I really hope they keep it going for at least one more episode. At this stage, Papers Please just feels like a classic that every gamer should experience fully at least once in their lives.
Honestly, the Grumps’ stats/viewership (from what I understand) are weird enough that this might do quite well. A 10 year old game might not be great for the autoplay/recommendation algorithm, but for SEO, I’m pretty sure it’ll show up high (if not first) on the page if you search for ‘papers please’. a bizarrely high amount of the Grumps’ viewership comes from folks that are actually subscribed- so those first two factors matter less for them than the average channel. Personally, I’ve wanted to watch them play certain games (like this) for YEARS, and ngl, seeing it ‘finally’ happen after totally forgetting about it had me clicking and watching it IMMEDIATELY. wouldn’t be surprised if other older lovelies jump on watching this, as well.
How so? That game is all about deduction and connecting clues together (thinking about things like the chinamen shoes). Just watching the Amanda Adventure game and Arin couldn’t notice a missing pause button…when staring at it with a pause button in his hand…kinda doesn’t bode well
@@cassiebraun1076 It'd probably just be Sean screaming "WHAT THE FECK ARE YOU DOIN?!" at them the whole time and getting various levels of frustrated, honestly. :')
This is literally one of my favorite games and I was so happy to see that you guys had made a video about you playing it. Please keep going, the game gets more difficult and some of the decisions you have to make start to become more personal (like for example, if you are low on money, will you accept bribes, and if someone is asking to see their family, will you let them pass even if their paperwork is not in order). Also I love the sassy fashionista bordercontroller Arin working with gloomy bordercrossers. 🤣💕
Beyond elated to see them playing this and hope they play it as long as they can! Brian and Barry’s one-off was one of my first introductions to the channel way back when
Man, watching them struggle with the first day knowing what was to come had me stressed. Also Arin was clairvoyant when he predicted the guy doing the bombing.
Knew this was going to be a banger when he got the first entrant wrong. Also, him barely using the inspect button removed a year from my life. Never change, my grumpy boi.
9:56 Lucas Pope apparently. He got the inspiration when he was at the airport as the people working there were checking his paperwork. He also made Return of the Obra Dinn, which is an outstanding game of logic and deduction.
the game: use the BIG RED BUTTON to let the game analyze the information Arin and Dan: *proceeds to analyze and check each person’s documents without use of said button*
i was looking foreward to arin having 1.5 brain cells and immediately failing the first person in the easiest part of the game i did not expect that he wouldnt even be able to open the passport
Just some advice, unless it specifically says so in the rule book you only have to check expiration date. If there's more obvious signs, eg: gender or photo doesn't look the same, that's when you do discrepancies. All of the people you let in, or not, after your shift is over doesn't give you money. You only get money from letting people in. There will be times when you don't know what to compare to get a discrepancy detected. If its a photo, you have to click photo + persons face. It'll then give you the chance to fingerprint them. You use the discrepancy on both sets of fingerprints and it'll either say discrepancy detected, or not. If it says no corelation, it means you have chosen two things that correlate with each other to search for discrepancy. Once it starts adding work permits, you have to check EVERYTHING. It takes forever but there should be obvious changes. Make sure you look carefully at duration of stay. If its not the same time they say they're staying, you pick up the communication page and tag the duration of stay on the work permit and them saying their different duration of stay. There's going to be times where you get letters from people with names of people you can't let in, if you want a good ending. Tag both the name on the letter and name on the passport and you can detain them. DON'T DETAIN PEOPLE FOR JUST EXPIRED PASSPORTS (unless you're getting paid for it by one of the guards.) only detain people if they don't have documents or you find bombs on them. Jorji is going to come back and you will always have to deny him, he has very obvious things that you can deny him for so don't look to hard for things to deny him for. Anything that's not passport/work permit etc you don't have to keep on the magnified table on the right side, you can keep it on your table. If you get paid not to let people in and you don't have any money taken off you for doing the wrong thing, then I wouldn't let them in. You only have to do 2 things wrong and then you start getting 5 credits taken off you. If they're giving you more than 5 credits especially, you can afford to do the wrong thing.
I strongly recommend turning on Easy mode to give you guys more time to check things and joke around with less threat of losing your whole family to starvation and disease. :) I want y'all to have fun and see the story to the end!
Ooh an interesting game pick. I'd actually love to watch them play Beholder - the second one is very much inspired by papers please but has a lot of interesting stuff outside of that
I'm hoping that Arin figures out that you can correct yourself if you accidentally deny or approve them by just giving them the other stamp, but I'm not that hopeful considering that I don't think the game outright tells you this?
Arin being surprised that you are given access to public housing while working this job and also misunderstanding class 8 housing (believing it to be the best class when it’s quite the opposite) is the most American thing ever
Taking a moment to point out that we deeply appreciate the implementation of manual subtitles for videos. These are annoying and hard to make but very important. Thank you editor / GG.
You guys deserve so much love atleast more love because 300K averaged viewing an episode is so not worth the amount of passion and dedication that comes with this channel I love these two men very much y’all have given me so much happiness and joy in the modern world I love you fools and I will continue to be a lovely as long as I breathe
I really hope this becomes a series. I want the boys to discover the true depth of this game, and I think it’ll make for some great goofs and some spectacular gaffs.
Honestly, for a first play-through, Arin is doing pretty decent. Yeah, he could pick up speed at inspecting, but for his first time, he's learning pretty fast. I really want to see more of this. The only tip I would offer is that you get paid by the number of people you process which is why it pays to keep a good pace up. You can also take bribes if people are trying to get into the country with false documents so it's not a bad idea to interrogate even if some documents are wrong/missing instead of just immediately denying entry.

I can imagine them in that job position because their goofy act cushions the blow as they strictly deny people.
"Look, there is a really good explanation as to why I'm missing these papers. You see-"

I suppose you don't really NEED to use the inspection tool if it's something obvious like an expired document. Still bothers me tho
Some things you can just deny as soon as you see a discrepancy, it's not like person can have a second non-expired 0assport eithvhim in this game. Other things should be checked like a missing document that the person might have on him but forgot to present
Until you need to provide a reason, you could just say they are breaking the unwritten "Have *ALL* your documents ready" rule.

That being said, I'm glad they are properly figuring out all the details (except forgetting the interrogation button immediately), so they will have better eye for the details later.
But my god, for veterans who have played the game before.. Seeing them move so slowly was like torture, especially when they already agreed that things are looking good and still double and triple check stuff before stamping as slowly as possible..
But honestly I'm glad they didn't fully skip the tutorial / instruction parts
After MatPats retirement, I’m gonna need for Arin to be serious about his GameGrumps retirement plan
Arin has already said his retirement plan: he's going to die on camera, fully monetized
@@haywoodjblome4768😂 for real .
SO EXCITED YOU'RE PLAYING THIS!!! ♥♥♥
Also, you're paid by how many people you get to get through (approved or denied as long as it's done correctly), so the faster you go, the more money you get ♥
Yessss this game is so good. I can already see Arin getting super annoyed
In order for Arin to get upset, he needs to first realize he's doing terrible. Which he has not yet done.

@@chefdano3474 true, though he is noticing the lack of money he has which is like the first indicator that he needs to speed up a bit. And of course later on the citations will start piling up.
i love the batter profile pic OFF is a fantastic game
joining in on the love of the pfp. OFF is a childhood classic for me
Please play again, my boyfriend has said "They still haven't posted Papers please yet" every day since this video
Boy, I feel like this one might not get the greatest views, but I really hope they keep it going for at least one more episode. At this stage, Papers Please just feels like a classic that every gamer should experience fully at least once in their lives.
Honestly, the Grumps’ stats/viewership (from what I understand) are weird enough that this might do quite well. A 10 year old game might not be great for the autoplay/recommendation algorithm, but for SEO, I’m pretty sure it’ll show up high (if not first) on the page if you search for ‘papers please’.
a bizarrely high amount of the Grumps’ viewership comes from folks that are actually subscribed- so those first two factors matter less for them than the average channel.
Personally, I’ve wanted to watch them play certain games (like this) for YEARS, and ngl, seeing it ‘finally’ happen after totally forgetting about it had me clicking and watching it IMMEDIATELY. wouldn’t be surprised if other older lovelies jump on watching this, as well.
I'm surprised they did so well already.
Hell yeah. Hope this gets a full series.
This was lovely, and reminds me that the grumps haven't done "Return of the Obra Dinn" which would fit them like a glove
How so? That game is all about deduction and connecting clues together (thinking about things like the chinamen shoes). Just watching the Amanda Adventure game and Arin couldn’t notice a missing pause button…when staring at it with a pause button in his hand…kinda doesn’t bode well
Ahhh, papers please, that famous game, that was played by jacksepticeye and his potato man. And detained!! It's such a classic !!
i love the potato man, i cant wait for them to see his…. story
I wish they had Jack helping them out with this ❤ it would be an amazing Guest Grumps ❤
@@cassiebraun1076 It'd probably just be Sean screaming "WHAT THE FECK ARE YOU DOIN?!" at them the whole time and getting various levels of frustrated, honestly. :')
This is literally one of my favorite games and I was so happy to see that you guys had made a video about you playing it. Please keep going, the game gets more difficult and some of the decisions you have to make start to become more personal (like for example, if you are low on money, will you accept bribes, and if someone is asking to see their family, will you let them pass even if their paperwork is not in order). Also I love the sassy fashionista bordercontroller Arin working with gloomy bordercrossers. 🤣💕
30:55 actually, you got paid $50! It's just that half of that is rent, and the other half is food and medicine for one of your family members
Beyond elated to see them playing this and hope they play it as long as they can! Brian and Barry’s one-off was one of my first introductions to the channel way back when
Hope they continue/finish this one, would love to see their reactions to where the game ends up going
Five minutes in and i can already tel this playthrough is going to make me so mad
who the heckenstein recommended a pay-lots-of-attention game to Arin?
Lmao, he couldn’t figure out to drag the passport then stamped denied and gave up
As if you did good on your first run.
Then don’t fucking watch it?
@@OtisCluckare you a personal friend of dan or arin? this is a weirdly hostile attitude for you to take in defense of total strangers
Man, watching them struggle with the first day knowing what was to come had me stressed. Also Arin was clairvoyant when he predicted the guy doing the bombing.
Arin saying that it's too much information while just reading the description of the room. Oh boy we are in for a blast!
I’m already so entertained imagine all the ways this is going to go wrong. Going to be a game Dan tries to help Arin a lot and he won’t listen.
Knew this was going to be a banger when he got the first entrant wrong. Also, him barely using the inspect button removed a year from my life. Never change, my grumpy boi.
9:56 Lucas Pope apparently.
He got the inspiration when he was at the airport as the people working there were checking his paperwork.
He also made Return of the Obra Dinn, which is an outstanding game of logic and deduction.
It breaks my heart to know this game is going to be abandoned in one or two episodes… 😢
NOOOOOOOOOO
the game: use the BIG RED BUTTON to let the game analyze the information
Arin and Dan: *proceeds to analyze and check each person’s documents without use of said button*
doesn't it take a stupidly long amount of time to have it check each thing vs just glancing with your eyes?
@@KairuHakubi Yeah, visually checking it is much faster.
Seans scream of glory is stuck in my head again😂
Glory greatest 🙌🏽
I love how no matter how many times they read it, or say it out loud, they'll immediately forget and mess it all up. I'm so excited for this series.
"There's so much more extra stuff now!" Arin says, three days into a game that very steadily ramps up the amount you need to check.
I just got to that part as I read your comment. lol
i was looking foreward to arin having 1.5 brain cells and immediately failing the first person in the easiest part of the game
i did not expect that he wouldnt even be able to open the passport
the absolute chokehold this game had on me a few years ago was insane
Please continue this one, there's so many awesome shenanigans afoot you both are going to really love!
You dressed Arin up in one of the outfits and made him fit in with the artstyle for the thumbnail. Props.
I've waited years for a Grumps playthrough of this game
Why
Always psyched to see someone play Papers Please
this episode starting with Dan Reading my immortal nearly gave me a heart attack
God, I love papers please
Just some advice, unless it specifically says so in the rule book you only have to check expiration date. If there's more obvious signs, eg: gender or photo doesn't look the same, that's when you do discrepancies.
All of the people you let in, or not, after your shift is over doesn't give you money. You only get money from letting people in.
There will be times when you don't know what to compare to get a discrepancy detected. If its a photo, you have to click photo + persons face. It'll then give you the chance to fingerprint them. You use the discrepancy on both sets of fingerprints and it'll either say discrepancy detected, or not. If it says no corelation, it means you have chosen two things that correlate with each other to search for discrepancy.
Once it starts adding work permits, you have to check EVERYTHING. It takes forever but there should be obvious changes. Make sure you look carefully at duration of stay. If its not the same time they say they're staying, you pick up the communication page and tag the duration of stay on the work permit and them saying their different duration of stay.
There's going to be times where you get letters from people with names of people you can't let in, if you want a good ending. Tag both the name on the letter and name on the passport and you can detain them.
DON'T DETAIN PEOPLE FOR JUST EXPIRED PASSPORTS (unless you're getting paid for it by one of the guards.) only detain people if they don't have documents or you find bombs on them.
Jorji is going to come back and you will always have to deny him, he has very obvious things that you can deny him for so don't look to hard for things to deny him for.
Anything that's not passport/work permit etc you don't have to keep on the magnified table on the right side, you can keep it on your table.
If you get paid not to let people in and you don't have any money taken off you for doing the wrong thing, then I wouldn't let them in. You only have to do 2 things wrong and then you start getting 5 credits taken off you. If they're giving you more than 5 credits especially, you can afford to do the wrong thing.
Loved it, but this was the most relaxed papers please I've ever seen 😂
Most people are stressed trying to be as fast as possible, but not Arin
this is like the absolute worst game for Arin and Dan to be successful at...and i'm loving it hahahaha
We neeeeeeed a full playthrough of this!
“Wow this sounds like a dream world!!!” 😭😭
I strongly recommend turning on Easy mode to give you guys more time to check things and joke around with less threat of losing your whole family to starvation and disease. :) I want y'all to have fun and see the story to the end!
Game grump playing Paper Please finally makes me unreasonably happy pls play more
Ooh an interesting game pick. I'd actually love to watch them play Beholder - the second one is very much inspired by papers please but has a lot of interesting stuff outside of that
I only got to the second level, did I miss anything important?
praying for a second episode of this, loved this one!
I'm hoping that Arin figures out that you can correct yourself if you accidentally deny or approve them by just giving them the other stamp, but I'm not that hopeful considering that I don't think the game outright tells you this?
Yeah, the game recognises the most recent stamp you used, but it doesn't tell you directly.
I thought the denied stamp always overrode the approved stamp
Arin being surprised that you are given access to public housing while working this job and also misunderstanding class 8 housing (believing it to be the best class when it’s quite the opposite) is the most American thing ever
Taking a moment to point out that we deeply appreciate the implementation of manual subtitles for videos. These are annoying and hard to make but very important. Thank you editor / GG.
Arin screwing up the very first one is a baaaaad sign. I have a feeling this is gonna be painful to watch. XD
Then don’t watch it
Yay! Curently recovering from surgery, and the grumps are playing one of my faves. Gonna help with the mood ^^
Hope you feel better soon
Hope you don't rupture a blood vessel😅
love how arin saw and pointed out the red butotn on the bottom but barely actually use it
Y’all gotta play this again! I love papers please
i want them to keep playing this so badly. i also really wanna see an animated of this
Incredible throwback!!
You guys deserve so much love atleast more love because 300K averaged viewing an episode is so not worth the amount of passion and dedication that comes with this channel I love these two men very much y’all have given me so much happiness and joy in the modern world I love you fools and I will continue to be a lovely as long as I breathe
GameGrumps Lunch Break Chronicles, Day 11:
Prepare yourselves, we’re going into struggle meal territory 😅 Ramen today. It’s aight. 7/10
NO WAY PAPERS PLEASE???
Eating lunch while watching this too 🤞
aw, now i want ramen. i have a sore throat, so i'm watching this with a glass of water and a dream.
Day 11?!
I missed 10 whole GameGrumps Lunch Break Chronicles?!?!?!
I'll never be able to find them all there's too many comments😭
bro, I always look forward to your lunch break chronicles, and your cover of I own a car is stellar!!
I’m also on my lunch break watching this lmao
I really hope this becomes a series. I want the boys to discover the true depth of this game, and I think it’ll make for some great goofs and some spectacular gaffs.
I legit want this playthrough to be series :)
Honestly, for a first play-through, Arin is doing pretty decent. Yeah, he could pick up speed at inspecting, but for his first time, he's learning pretty fast. I really want to see more of this. The only tip I would offer is that you get paid by the number of people you process which is why it pays to keep a good pace up. You can also take bribes if people are trying to get into the country with false documents so it's not a bad idea to interrogate even if some documents are wrong/missing instead of just immediately denying entry.
i used to watch jacksepticeye play this game sooo many times when his videos first came out and well after that, this is so nostalgic lol.
