10* ''VideoGame/CookServeDelicious'': One of the random emails you can get is a message from the Immigration Protection Agency asking for information about a Mr. Jorji having shown up in the country with counterfeit documents and wanted by the Arstotzkan federal authorities for illegal activities.
11* ''VideoGame/Fallout4'': The Railroad uses a symbol for when caches are nearby that resembles EZIC's symbol.

Even later on, it makes another cameo as a BrandX knock-off titled ''[[ToiletHumor Please, Paper]]'' being advertised in "Legend of the Secret".
17* ''VideoGame/Uncharted4AThiefsEnd'': While in Madagascar during, Nate and Sully pass by a crowded border checkpoint and Sully mentions that they'll have to deal with this kind of junk when they head back to the States and Nate says, 'Could be worse. Could be Arstotzka.'
