I actually didn't know it was on mobile, so I searched for "Papers Please" on the Google Play store. Only complete garbage came up, and I had to actually go to the website to find a link to the game (which only has 5k downloads!)

I wonder if there's a solution to this.

Thanks, I searched the play store for both "papers please" and "papers, please" which didn't yield any meaningful results. If I hadn't have read this comment I would have (lazily) assumed it was iOS only.

Play store says there have been 4000 downloads so at least some people are getting to that page, but probably through direct links rather than search

Oh, wow, thanks! I did likewise and assumed the mobile port hadn't actually been released yet. Google's search is clearly awful :-/.

Hilariously the correct play store link is the second hit for https://www.google.com/search?q=papers+please+android

Weirdly I was lookingt to see if there was a papers please on Android last week and concluded it hadn't been ported to mobile because of the results.

Lucky this came up on HN so I found out. If that weren't the case I doubt I'd have thought about it again and wouldn't have ever bought/played it.

The issue is the missing comma, I ran into the same problem. Searching for "Papers, please" will yield the expected result.

Maybe that's something that can be configured?

And for me at least it was necessary to include the quotation marks too.

Same here. Without the comma AND the double quotes, I only see what's obviously a copycat.
