Person of European Heritage #112: Welcome to Relocation Block B, your new home. Your designated role is 'Bouncer'. Work hard, stay out of trouble, and we might let you stay in the UK.
In an alternative Britain where Brexit talks have collapsed, an extreme far-right government has taken power. Citizens of European heritage have been rounded up and exiled. Forced out of your previous life, you find yourself in the midst of a booming gig economy, fighting to scrape by and return to the city you call home.
Not Tonight is a post-Brexit management game, fusing a time-pressure RPG with a politically charged story where every decision matters. Will you join the resistance and fight the regime -- or keep your head down and hope that one day this will all be a distant memory?
- Man the doors of pubs, clubs, festivals and parties, finding work via the BouncR app
- Check IDs, manage guestlists, and stop revellers from becoming unruly
- Upgrade your apartment, bouncer and equipment to better prepare yourself for the future
- Decide what lengths you'll go to in order to survive in a Britain on the verge of collapse

I found this game and I really like it especially with the multiple endings and how you can decide how you want to play your character with the quests.
It has it's charm yes. However I found this game more enjoyable to watch than actually play. It becomes frustratingly repetitive and on the whole boring for the amount of irritation it brings. The BIGGEST issue is the inconsistent UI. The date format is different in THREE separate places on the screen at the SAME time and in a game where checking dates is paramount it makes it unfun.
Lovely game.
A cool little Papers, Please!-em up. It has plenty of shortcomings, but makes up for it in style, music and decent gameplay. It goes without saying that if you haven't played Papers, Please! first, you should do that instead, as that is the game this is trying to imitate, and Not Tonight doesn't quite hit the mark of that one (but comes pretty close).
For a game that makes you focus and find the small errors, the game itself has some errors that seemingly never got addressed. Such as the bosses telling you one thing, but the actuality of the stage checks being the polar opposite. For example, at one point, a boss told me that he doesn't care about income checks and I shouldn't bother with them, but my handbook of rules for the current day specifically says that I should, and the handbook is correct. Similar issues cropped up 2 or 3 times during the playthrough.. The game always refers to the people you inspect as 'clubbers', even when that is not appropriate. The game tells you that you can do a thing, but you actually cannot - when you first get drugs, it says you can flush them in the toilet, but there is no such functionality. There is a bunch of erroneous triggers for determining the 'good ending' that specifically say you did a thing during your playthrough when you most certainly didn't. The starting barks from the boss for the day will mention stuff like "Check tickets!" even if the venue in question doesn't have tickets. The rejection barks from the queuers can be complete nonsense, not matching the situation that happens at all.
It could have so many more things to check on the documents, but it just doesn't. The list of things to check stays fairly trivial till the end, and the only document cross-check you have to do is the photos, while it could have been more - names, ids, supplemental info. The additional documents also could have expiry dates, but they don't. The holograms/stamps for the documents could have fake versions, but they don't. The form/paper the documents are printed on could have fake versions, but they don't. There's many more potential details like these, but they were not implemented, I believe, to make the queue move faster, as it is a timed game, much more so than Papers, Please!. At later levels you have to keep breakneck pace to reach bonus objectives, and on some I never achieved bonus 2 due to running out of time, but that's not a big deal. The names of the queuers could have mattered more than just for the guestlist, there could have been a ban on polish-sounding names, there could have been a manhunt for some specific person to look out for, there could have been errors in name spellings in supplemental documents, but there's none of that.
It could have leaned further into racism. Now sure, the game touches on a similar theme heavily, but the point of the game is to make you uncomfortable, and it never quite goes "black people not allowed", and I think it should have by the end to show how fucked up things have become.
It could have leaned further into geography. It tickles it slightly with the flags, but it could have gone for cities, too. Ensuring that Milan is in Italy could have been an interesting mechanic with an additional bonus of teaching people some basic geography facts.
The game also just kinda... gives up by the very end, removing basically all difficulty from the strategic layer, and the ending of the game is very abrupt and underwhelming. I ended the game having bought all upgrades, paid for everything and with around 16k quid in my account with nothing to spend it on, having never sold a single thing or taken a bribe.
I should also mention that including a requirement to match the headwear and a hairstyle to the same types on the document photo is certainly a choice. Wore a different hat today? You're not allowed on the premises. I get that since the humans don't have facial features due to the artstyle, that's sort of your go-to, but it could have been explained in-game, like a mention of the wacky document photo ID laws or somesuch.
I kept waiting the whole game when will it force me to point out the errors to the queuers, but it never does, despite actually having that functionality. You can always just instantly reject if you spot something wrong without explaining, which is a missed opportunity in terms of additional difficulty. The game overall lacks the kind of bureaucracy that was charming in Papers, Please! and just kinda speeds it all along without realising that it is that sort of annoying attention to detail that was fun to explore in this kind of game.
Regardless of all that, it is still a quite fun game to play and I enjoyed playing it, I just wanted to vent my frustrations with it. I would recommend it to anybody who enjoyed playing Papers, Please! and wants more, but in a slightly different form-factor.
requires just enough brain power to keep me engaged but not so much that i feel super overwhelmed. Story line is pretty good so far. Music is awesome.
The game has nice graphics and a good soundtrack. The mechanics of working as a bouncer are also well done, but they get boring very quickly. I only had enough time for the first chapter (out of three), then I got tired of the same type of ID verification grind.
An inferior version of Papers Please that has a few laughs but is overall not that much fun. Got a bad ending even though some of the tings you need to do for the good ending are very obscure, like Daves ring and the blackmail problem with the shop woman. It's a decent game if you get it on sale but not worth twenty dollars IMO.
Great game! I liked both the story (with cheeky in jokes) and gameplay, witch is kinda like papers please so if you don't like a little repeditive ness then you probably wont like it. It does keep it fresh for me as far as new things to look out for but this is all my opinion i would still recommend it.
especially if you like: papers please, beholder (2), or death and taxes
Might be worth it, if it's on sale and you know you like this kind of game. Pretty boring though. Just play Papers Please instead.
Doesn't have good support for touchscreen. Could use more accessibility options, like clicking the card instead of clicking and dragging to take it.
Really fun game, love the silly little add on with the love version.
froggies not allowed
If you like Papers, Please or That's Not My Neighbor, this game is for you. The story is great, the music is great, the gameplay is great, and the pixel art is phenomenal. Seriously, if you are even considering it, buy it.
very good game fun story challenging game play
Nice game!
8/10 (+1 for the music)
The game obviously is a Papers, Please inspired game, which offers a unique and engaging gaming experience, skillfully combining time management with real-life social issues. The storyline is very captivating, immersing players in a world that reflects real social problems, and the art style adds to its charm. However, after a while, I think players may find the mechanics familiar too easily, which can lead to a sense of repetition and boredom. Additionally, the fast pace of the game can be a challenge for some, as it requires quick decision-making. Not to mention, some choices and decisions appear quite early in each chapter but can change the game's ending.
But still, It's an interesting and thought-provoking experience, especially for those who enjoy storytelling and strategic gameplay with simple yet quite enjoyable graphics.
Personally, I highly appreciate and love the music in this game. One of the songs has become one of my favorites.
Even though they compare it with Papers Please! It's very boring, story seems to go nowhere, soundtrack is pretty bland, even though it has an interesting concept it explore those themes poorly.
I think I'm a real Brexit geezer now
Game’s fun and simple, but you’re bound to make mistakes here and there until you finally get to master it. Story are well made, awesome pixel art and great soundtracks too.Some voices reminds me of those from Spongebob lol
with a fantastic pixel art, music styling, game play and political message, for sure worth playing, just ensure you work hard or you will be deported... in the game and perhaps in real life...
This underrated game is extremely fun for me because it has provided me a satisfying amount of pressure while playing it. The difficulty of this game is just right & the choice you make during the story are well-made. The most enjoyable part would be the amount of skill it would take to be able to get good at this game. It is easy to master as you progress through the story & as you start playing the game, you wouldn't want to stop. New developments will be made in your run in this game which would prevent you to stop playing the game.
Amazing soundtrack and surprisingly good story!
Good story-line and challenge. Not Bad!
Easy to play and entertaining
very fun and simple. love the pixel art. if you like papers please, you’ll love this game.
Insane but addicting
Smart, satiric and sometimes funny game. But you need to like careful gameplay like it is in Papers, Please. I mean, here you need to think fast and play fast, but you'll probably make mistakes anyway.
I enjoyed game's atmosphere and how stupid some (most of them actually) rules are.
My favorite part was when cast of Doctor Who came to my bar...
owned this game for years, stopped working in the last 2. Never got to finish. And the devs don't care. Don't buy it cuz it might happen to you and then you'll have no way to play it. Also tried to find where to message devs and whatnot, no way to that I know of. Not to mention that there doesn't seem to be any communication on other platforms mostly. There are also still plenty of bugs in the game that they haven't fixed.
This game is ok. It definitely has taken inspiration from papers please, and tried to place it in a more contemporary setting. The design of the graphics, sound and music is very good. The design of the game and it's UI is less good. Many parts of it are a bit difficult to figure out, which is maybe kind of the point, but it still feels awkward. And some parts are just plain nonsensical, like the save slot management system.
good gaem
Great game. The winning formula. Start small and simple and get more and more complex. I laughed at several points. Art style is great.
The politics message can be a little on the nose at times and some levels where absolutely crazy frustrating, but I kept coming back for more punishment.
It's very annoying, that things like hairstyles matter in IDs. And I literally can't see the difference between the normal and black and white flags. No matter whether the game is in colourblind mode or not
I agree with the recent reviews. It's a nice game, really, but the content is just more frustrating rather than challenging. Even on early levels, you actually have to push yourself really hard to meet the minimum quota, making it rather annoying.
If the dev team would balance these things out a bit more, it'd be nice.
I tick it as a positive review, but until the balance changes, I rate it as 4/10.
Came home from my job as a bouncer to play a game where I am a bouncer. What has my life become?
Also, you get to victimise the French. +5 points
If you like games like Papers Please!, this is very similar. I like the storyline with different places, different choices, and the repetitiveness XD
Just not as fluid as other games of this type. It tries to pack a lot of stuff on top of each other but it makes it more frustrating than challenging.
Alright, if a bit too in your face about the whole child of refugee theme. Good pixel art, a good start that gets you wanting to see what happens. I feel it's more for people who enjoy Papers Please styled games.
Incredibly easy to 100% this game, and also incredibly fun to play in general. Highly recommend this short but incredibly addictive game!
