Is the film official? If it's fanmade then it shouldn't be discussed here.

I think we can add another under Interface Spoiler: At one point, a man asks you to give his card to anyone who's coming to Arstotzka to be an engineer. Every single time someone with a Work Pass that says Engineering (and I had to replay those days a couple times-fucking Ministry of Income), their papers are perfect, similar to the brothel girls. Has this happened for anyone else?

Economic system contradiction

The article's section "Crapsack World" claims that Arstotzka has an excellent health care system, excellent scientists and a stable economy. On the other hand its system cannot avoid the starvation and death by illness of a common state bureaucrat's family (a rare case for a communist country generally characterized by its guaranteed social services). Having this into account it is possible that its economy is more similar to the Chinese style "socialist maket economy" than to the Soviet-style command economy. Other explanation can be that its economy has been seriously deteriorated by the past war with Kolechia or by other factors.

Article's inaccuracy about computers in Communist Bloc countries

Contrary to the information appearing on the article's sections "Eagleland" and "No Communities Were Harmed", there was in fact native computer hardware and limited access to Western one since well before 1982 in the USSR, other Eastern Bloc countries, as well as in Communist Yugoslavia.

Is there any particular reason we removed the parody blurb at the top? There's a similar one on the Hotline Miami page, but nobody seems to be bothered by that.
