Imagine you're a 12 year old, suddenly in charge of the guard shed at the castle gate, where you decide if elves, goblins and 100+ other characters should be admitted. It's a wonderful combination of deduction, narrative and puzzle games.

Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 1.43/day in the week to Aug 11 → 1/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,402 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Absolute Cinema
Si, a veces es un poco lento o te hace dar alguna vuelta más de la cuenta, pero en general es un juego muy variado y divertido, con personajes recurrentes memorables y donde sientes que realmente estás marcando una diferencia. Si fuese de rejugar, lo hacía sin dudarlo. Quizás solo 3 acciones por turno y que dos herramientas se pisan bastante serían otros fallos, pero creo que es principalmente para que la cagues porque no podías saberlo y pruebes que pasaría si hicieras las cosas diferentes. Mucho más que un papers please cartoon.

Love the game. I always love games where the game changes based on your actions. This is not just a sit down and click game. You have to think about your next move, the people you meet etc. Worth it!
fun lil adventure
Oh my, this game is so cute and witty. Love the Lil Guardsman and all the side characters. The voice acting is so on point. Spent 40 hours on it with most of it spent trying to chase down all the achievements. No regret.
its very fun and stratiegic witch is quite fun
Es bonito, de chill, historia entretenida, bastante gracioso No da para pasarlo varias veces, pero ese es el "loop" del juego, ver cuántas veces lo puedes pasar para saber que final sacas Vale lo que cuesta? Si, absolutamente Es bonito? Porsupuesto Es diberydo? Claro que sí De los pocos juegos indies que valen la pena y no solo porque los streamers lo juegan, dale una oportunidad!
good game and is fun
De los juegos más divertidos que he jugado en mi vida, si no el que más. Y en esta vida es difícil ser gracioso e ingenioso mientras construyes una subtrama política consistente. Encima todo aderezado con un arte chulísimo! Si es que no se puede pedir más!! Soy terrible en Papers Please pero en Lil' Guardsman he encontrado el lugar donde sí se me da bien ser inspector de aduanas <3
10/10 Arrested Lil's Dad for Illegal Gambling.
