When I first play the game, the name of the game confuses me. The “garbage man” only can remind me of a man who throws the garbage, or a man with bad attributes and affect surrounding people or a garbage collector. My second thought is due to a short video which talks about people always feeling bad about the world and the people around them; this person has too many bad energies to the surrounding, they are called a garbage man. However, I didn’t expect that the game just talks about the life of a garbage collector, which I didn’t expect. The story of the game that is talked about is the daily life of a garbage collector, from 4:30 am to the end of the job. Everything looks normal and very daily. Weak up, eat breakfast, go outside, and start work. It looks unnecessary, but it is life. Just like us as a student, we wake up and wash faces, brush teeth, have breakfast, prepare everything needed for today’s classes. When the game writes all these, the player may feel unnecessary, but just remind that we are doing similar things every day, but we even cannot feel it. These things are too normal for us, and we have already gotten used to them. The designer just writes these and lets us feel a different lifestyle; after all, not everyone wakes up at 4:30 every day. The following scenario describes a day of a garbage man. His job looks a little bit boring, just cleaning the garbage of each house and street. Sometimes, there is something new or someone new exit. After all, not everyone wakes up so early, even in a video game. So, I decide to talk with him, but he is a strange person who just ignores the main character. This part is interesting for me because it just let's see an “image” where I say hi to people who have met before, but he just walks away without any response. I can feel the main character’s confusion and feel a little be embarrassed. I believe most people have had a similar situation before, so people can feel the character’s feelings. Although there is no dialog that says the main character’s feeling, only “he is strange.” But this is just like everyone will say when they have the same situation. At this point, the game pulls the player into the game and lets the play be a part of the game. This game starts from a common beginning and describe some general idea of the game. It mentioned what a garbage man is, and they began to talk about a day of a garbage man. There is some interesting sound with the game that can let players feel they are a part of the game and feel the life of a garbage man. It is new for every player. There are also some new things that happen every day. It let the game have more possibility and increases the fun of the game. By the way, the sound with dialog is really funny.
