Cart

You are nobody. You own nothing but your refusal to die.

Authorities grind the town into silence and squalor. You take a job from a dead man, hauling the city's waste.

The filth is not the worst part.

Cart is a short interactive fiction about authoritarian power and the cost of resisting it: the compromises, the violence, and the quiet corrosion of the self even when one finds the strength to resist.
