Well, I own only Beholder XD
..and I haven't played it yet -_-

thanks for this though, these kind of "event" are nice :)
bump =P

i've played Papers, Please and This War of Mine, both around 15 hours for me. Loved both, TWoM bit more

A pity I only have 1.9 hours showing on this war of mine and 3.8 showing on papers please as I mostly played them offline on the bus on the way to work :-(

Yes please! I've played a lot of This War of Mine :) I never got round to beating Papers Please but I still enjoyed it in a way... Beholder is also on my wishlist too!

I haven't play any of those but I think this deserves a bump. So, here, have it!

I haven't played any of the games in question, but yeah, Beholder reminded me of TWoM.
I like the idea! Anything to put games in the hands of people who will enjoy/play them, right?

Two full survival plathroughs of TWoM to see all the locations and check if I could manage to save them all; and some unsuccessful runs (non-optimal) in Papers, Please. Liked both games, tho I just was not fast enough for Papers, Please, took me too long to get the money in for my family D: TWoM on the other was thoroughly enjoyable as a game and as an experience.

So if you say I would like Beholder, then you must mean its theme of a dystopian setting? Something like that? Gameplay-wise they differ so much I can't imagine you'd

Played and even achieved all achievos in Papers Please, but it appears I've done it in 8 hours...
This War of Mine, I tried to play it for a bit, but in the end I surrendered after 5 hours , it just wasn't for me :(

Whoever wins it, I really hope he'll have fun!

19 hours This War Of Mine, and a few hours Paper Please (10.5) on steam, but more offline
I have Beholder on wishlist :D

Mhm, if you say I'd enjoy it then I'll give this a shot. Only have TWoM and I've played it for 12 hours (finished first story and played a bit of a custom one), though I'll most likely go back to it since someone gifted me the DLC a short while ago.

I played This War of Mine for exactly 10.1 hours. I always want to go back to it, as I really like the theme and message. Yet I just suck in bringing in sufficient resources. It's really a shame that I haven't finished a successful run yet.

I also sucked at Papers, Please. Again I loved the concept, but my reaction time was just horrible.

I'm very interested in Orwell and Beholder. 1984 shaped me profoundly when I was only 12. I'd like to drop a link to Hidden Agenda here, which I discovered the year it got made, in 1988. It has a simple "follow your choices" mechanic, but they don't do such political games anymore. :)

Papers, Please captured beautifully (paradoxically) the dystopian atmosphere of that era. I don't think you can call This War of Mine a part of such dystopian games. Of course it takes place in a war-ridden city, but it's not what you would call Orwellian dystopia.. is it?
Anyhow I am only missing Orwell from these games so this isn't a participation comment ;)

Played This War of Mine for 5 hours before getting stuck on a day where my people are starving. Meant to go back and reset (started tackling my backlog a couple of days ago, so I'll get around to it soon). Played Papers, Please for 4 hours and am currently playing it. Have Orwell wishlisted since October, all three are good games. If Beholder is similar to any of them, then it's definitely good ~

24 hrs on Papers, please... I loved it

i played 39 hours of This War of Mine, its an amazing game. It makes you aware of what war REALLY is.
i have Orwell in my wishlist, and never heard of Beholder

I've played 32 hours of Papers, Please and unlocked all achievements. Been meaning to try the other three games you've listed, too. I'm very pleased that videogames have gotten around to tackling dystopian themes, as they can present moral quandaries in a more personal manner than other media; you will walk all over people's inalienable rights if it means getting a higher score.

Hey, I have only played This War of Mine, but have 14 hours in it and I have Beholder on my wishlist. So if there is still a place under the 20 people you are searching, I would really like to join your group. =)

Damn only 8h in this war of mine, well, bump

I got this one recommended to me before, so please invite me too if there is still place :) I've played This War of Mine before (55 hours and all achievements! ^^)

this war is ok

View attached image.

I have played both Papers Please and This War of Mine. I have finished both games, but Papers Please is a clear favourite. Such a good game.

I really enjoyed playing Papers, Please. It's an amazing game with something to say. A rarity these days. Unfortunately I still haven't finished it (I think I am about half way). Other things keep coming up and it's a game that requires all of your attention.

I would definitely recommend everyone try Papers, Please.

Played only Papers, Please. Rest is on my wishlist :D

Not requesting a spot or anything, but I loved papers, please, 12 hours and all the achievements earned. The way it distilled the madness of a dystopian society into the simple act of checking documents at a border point was brilliant.
