Speaking as Brit who is salty as hell at Brexit, I really enjoyed “Not Tonight”. It takes the Papers, Please mechanical framework and applies it to a new socio-economic context for some really effective satire. If you hadn’t mentioned it, then this is the one that I would have commented to add
The upcoming I Have No Change has a certain Papers-esque feel to it. You’re stuck in a kiosk doing mundane things, and narratives are told through the characters that visit your kiosk.
What other games came out that were like Papers Please? I only ever played/heard of that one.

Those are the closest two I think.
There’s others that get more into FNAF type of gameplay, or straight detective sorts.
I would call Not Tonight a ‘paperslike’.
