Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 2/day in the week to Aug 7 → 2/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 25 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 10 places towards #1, and the 2,413 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.

流程不长，有些支线感觉没头没尾的，背景感觉也还有没交代的，后续能出个dlc补完剧情么
Teller's Duty is fine. The art is really wonderful, and the actual game of checking for valid transactions is fun and not terribly difficult. Having a cast of regular customers is an interesting twist on the papers please format, that does lead to some story lines over the course of the game. The issues though... There's quite a few glitches and localization issues in the game. You have to keep hitting the bell until the next customer shows up because it doesnt work after one interaction. The story sometimes is trying to be funny and sometimes is trying to be deep, and it doesn't really accomplish either. The characters are very flat, especially the love interest, and there's no real... Theme. Things happen. But there's no meaning to it really. Some things that were supposed to be funny really rubbed me the wrong way too.. Several irl political figures (Putin, Trump, Musk, etc) are included as gags, which I can see some reviewers enjoyed but for me really took me out of the experience and was a huge bummer. I don't want to be reminded of those pigs when Im trying to play a game. The story in general felt like a tween boy's attempt at political commentary.

这样黑暗的城市还有存在的必要吗，果然导弹才是对的吗？
After playing Teller's Duty for around 12 hours, I can say that I genuinely enjoyed the experience, especially when it comes to the story. The game manages to deliver an engaging narrative with several unexpected plot twists that kept me curious about how the story would unfold. The art style is one of the aspects that makes this game stand out. It has a unique visual identity that helps create the atmosphere and tone of the world. As for the character interactions and dialogues, some conversations can feel repetitive at times, but overall they are still varied enough to keep the story engaging. One of the strongest aspects of Teller's Duty is how it allows players to shape the direction of the story through their choices. Throughout the game, I felt like I was constantly faced with difficult moral decisions: whether to become part of a corrupt system and silence those who oppose the regime, or to help fight against the corruption and injustice that is happening. In my opinion, the game does a great job of presenting heavy topics such as corruption, power, and government systems in a story that is surprisingly easy to follow and accessible. It also includes many subtle satirical elements that reflect the darker sides of political systems and governments in some countries today, while still keeping the narrative interesting and enjoyable. Overall, I would highly recommend Teller's Duty, especially for players who enjoy story-driven games with meaningful choices and interactive narratives. The game successfully makes players think about every decision they make and the consequences that follow. Overall Score: 8/10
Teller's Duty builds on the tried-and-tested Papers, Please! formula to bring a fresh takee on the genre set in its own war-torn world. A while back, we also tried 1998: The Toll Keeper Story, which is similarly a narrative-driven simulation with some money counting involved. What sets Teller's Duty apart from the aforementioned games is the greater level of interaction with your restrictive boss and uncle, and the characters you build relationships with. Each customer revisits the bank, building up a sense of trust with the ones who consistently fill in their forms correctly. Our MC's story is also unfolding with each chapter. At the end of each day, we get to experience a short time at home, deciding whether we can afford to eat, pay the bills, and support our family living in the countryside. Mistakes carry heavy penalties. The art, sound, and gameplay feel polished. So for a smooth and enjoyable simulation experience, Teller's Duty is an easy recommendation. Hi I'm Himetokki! I love playing and writing about indie and otome games :> I stream, do short writeups about my experiences and participate in game festivals. See you around!
通关就结束了，回来上我自己的B班，客户倒是和游戏里一样神，真正的惩罚
So I played the game for myself after reading some of the reviews that are - unfortunately - less than helpful. Honestly, I cannot understand the negativity. Full disclosure; I have *not* played "papers, please" and I think “tellers duty” suffers unfairly by getting compared to it. To this end, I am not as biased as some of the reviews here. I personally loved the game. It was nice and cozy, the addition of some real life characters was funny, though I think the dev could have ripped on them a bit more, if he is already including them in the game. All in all, it's a slow, relaxing game that does not take itself too seriously. I have only played it in english so I cannot speak much to other translations, but I didn't notice any glaring errors. I loved the artstyle and the story. I think the ending might be take it or leave it for some people, but I personally didn’t have a problem with it. It just shows that our character is not this super influenced unstoppable force and sometimes life just goes that way.
demo感觉还行，没想到正式版玩下来很不OK，30天重复的工作，怕假钞还需要一直人工清点。小游戏、突发事件、支线剧情也很少，赚的钱不知道何意味，没什么用，结局只打了艾米丽的，就不想去探索其他结局了，因为又是重复枯燥的内容，客户也有详情册，但是感觉没有用，很多东西没有额外选择，抢劫银行的枪战真的是又臭又长，我差点以为bug一直打不死。客户对话也无意义也触发不了什么，基本每天完成工作就是回家吃饭喂猫，连其他地方都不能去。其实艾米丽结局我也没看懂，是怎么就结婚、分离、生子、阴阳相隔了，后续呢？而且没得选，就是看结局动画，加上玩法枯燥，我也不想再打其他结局了，我以为会有什么双面间谍或者更多的选择剧情，总之就到这里，也不想玩了。
玩前：柜员有什么难的。玩后：我连数钱都数不明白
Game simulasi seru menjadi teller bank yang berada ditengah krisis dan pemerintahan yang amburadul. Sangat relate sekali dengan kondisi sekarang
