Overview

IP, PLEASE is a pixel-art browser game presented as a fictional border checkpoint. The official page describes it as a “Papers, Please” style game in which the player serves as an East Asia timezone checkpoint inspector named Claude and identifies travelers pretending to be American. The visible interface combines Chinese and English copy and organizes play as daily shifts.

Key Features

• A title screen introduces the inspection premise, with sound and fullscreen controls.
• The station scene includes a waiting area, road, checkpoint, booth, clock and countdown-style status display.
• Players call the next traveler, inspect a character portrait and dialogue, and move the visitor’s document from the booth to the desk.
• The document exposes an IP address and a region line; an observed session showed “115.235.20.8” and “China · Zhejiang · Telecom.”
• A Rulebook shows the current entry rules, including permitted countries or regions and prohibited areas.
• A decision-stamp control completes the inspection. An in-game hint also describes double-checking documents or examining a traveler’s words for inconsistencies.

How It Works

1. Click the opening screen to enter a daily shift.
2. Use the lower-left booth control to call the next traveler.
3. Inspect the visitor, drag the document onto the desk, and consult the Rulebook.
4. Use the decision stamp to choose an outcome and continue the checkpoint workflow.

Use Cases

• Short browser sessions for players who enjoy document inspection, deduction and rule-based decisions.
• A compact pixel-art interaction study for exploring bilingual interface copy, visual feedback and procedural checkpoint scenes.
