Grestin Border Checkpoint



"This is a border checkpoint between West Grestin in Kolechia and East Grestin in Arstotzka. That's where all the gameplay in Papers, Please could occur. I remember playing that game on my computer before World War III came here to lose up my time to play it. Hopefully I didn't want to forget playing that game, and thankfully, I didn't delete that. Also, you might wanna try to fall in line for entry. It's open for 12 hours from 6 AM to 6PM, all day long. I bet it never went well overnight, because it is."

--Su Ji-Hoon, Grestin (chapter)

The Grestin Border Checkpoint is located between West Grestin in Kolechia and East Grestin in Arstotzka. This is where all the gameplay will occur.

The checkpoint was opened on November 23, 1982 after a war between Arstotzka and Kolechia that resulted in the division of the city of Grestin. The checkpoint falls under the jurisdiction of the Arstotzkan Ministry of Admission and is manned by a single border inspector and a varying number of guards. It opens at 6 A.M. and closes at 6 P.M.

The checkpoint is frequently attacked by terrorists and, as stated by one of the guards who fought in war, has more action than Kolechia during the war.Sometimes, the inspector also witnesses these attacks himself and since day 16 is tasked to handle them with the tranquillizer gun to shoot attackers.

In When the Cold Breeze Blows Away, it would be mentioned in the history of Arstotzka that some veterans or immigrants can remember it
