8 itemsAbout the Game
You stand at the edge of a beach where the waves bring not shells and sea foam, but plastic bottles, old bags, and rusted metal.
Once, you made mistakes that led you here. Now those mistakes have turned into a sentence: daily, exhausting corrective labor under the scorching sun and a massive debt you must repay.
At first, it seems simple: pick up trash, carry it to the collector - repeat. But with each loop, you realize the beach feels endless, and the garbage hardly decreases. Fatigue builds. The heat presses down. The work never ends.
Among the waste, you sometimes find curious items. Maybe you can pawn them and repay the debt faster. So perhaps not all hope is lost.
Sometimes you encounter animals suffering because of these mountains of trash. Whether they melt the ice in your heart is up to you. Helping them is not part of your work assignment. But the choice still exists.
In this game, you are a prisoner who must atone for the past through labor.
Sort and haul trash despite exhaustion and heat.
With every kilogram, you move closer to paying off your debt.
And perhaps to a new life.
The beach will be your trial.
Work will be your punishment.
Freedom will be your reward.
