Permaban
It's 2007. You're a forum mod with dial-up, a rulebook that contradicts itself, and a community spiraling into chaos. Ban trolls, cite rules, survive burnout. Papers Please meets early internet culture.

Publisher's content notice
Permaban is a forum moderator simulator set in 2007. Players read and moderate fictional user posts that include mild profanity and insults, online threats and harassment, doxxing scenarios, references to hacking, phishing and software piracy, and posts that reference internet shock sites by name. Those posts carry abstract, distorted placeholder graphics; no explicit imagery appears at any point. All of this content is text the player has to identify and remove. That is the core gameplay loop.
