I'm Just A Tourist

Section 1

Start

The game begins on the Europe map. Before you travel anywhere, open the passport and type your name on the first page. Without a name, travel and visa actions stay locked.

Section 2

Travel And Countries

Click a country on the map to inspect its status. Some countries are open at once. Others require a visa first.

Section 3

Interviews

Border Control

The border officer checks your trip. Questions can be basic or detailed. The exact mix changes with your current situation, past visits, bans, and active buffs.

Visa Center

The visa officer asks a similar set of questions, but the visa center does not use arrest answers. It is about approval or refusal.

Section 4

Answers And Results

Every question has one correct answer. You only see three options at a time. The wrong answers are rotated from a larger pool so the same set does not appear every run.

• Correct answer: +1 point.
• Warning answer: no point.
• Arrest answer: immediate arrest in border control.

Section 5

Passport And Stamps

The passport grows during play. New visa pages are added when you receive visas, and stamp pages fill with entry or ban marks over time.

• The first page stores your name and game start time.
• Entry stamps are added after successful travel.
• Ban stamps are added after arrests.
• The last page shows the achievements you have unlocked.
• You can export the passport as a PDF.

Section 6

Achievements

Achievements are hidden until you unlock them. Each one is earned by visiting a specific set of countries.

• The game checks achievements from your successful entry stamps.
• Unlocked achievements appear in the achievements panel near Full Rules.
• The same unlocked list appears on the last passport page and in PDF export.
• Each achievement has a title, short description, country list, and emoji.

Section 7

Visa Rules

If a country needs a visa, you must get the correct one before travel. Some countries issue tourist visas, while others only accept visas issued somewhere else.

Schengen

A Schengen visa can unlock many countries. The first Schengen entry must be the country that issued that visa. After that, it can work in the wider Schengen group and in countries that accept Schengen entry.

Visa Limits

• Visas have an issue time and an expiry time.
• Visas can have one entry, two entries, or multiple entries.
• Expired or fully used visas stop working.

Section 8

Arrests And Entry Bans

If you choose an arrest answer at border control, the session ends at once. A short lock starts, and the country places a short entry ban in your passport.

• All actions are blocked for 20 seconds during arrest.
• The country receives a short entry ban for 1.5 minutes.
• Some countries may also trigger a random tourist-entry block.

Section 9

Frequent Traveler Buff

If you enter 3 different countries within 2 minutes, you gain the frequent traveler buff for 1.5 minutes.

• The buff lowers question count.
• For some easy visa-free entries, it can reduce the check to one basic question.
• While the buff is active, it does not refresh or extend itself.
