Outside of Disco Elysium, of course. Looking for games with great narratives and some level of Class Consciousness.

Bonus points if it plays well on Steam Deck!

The Last Worker has you play as the last human worker at an Amazon type company. Mostly a narrative game. It's 1st person 3d with voice acting. Gameplay is walking simulator-like, although you do get to fly a futuristic forklift.

I think you get contacted by some sort of socialist resistance org, and they have you fight the company. There was a physical switch release that my library had (!) but it's on Steam too.

Also, Citizen Sleeper has anti-capitalist themes. It's like, a CRPG type game with a lot of replay value because there simply isn't enough time to get everything done in one run. No overworld, though. There are just places to go and skill checks and such. The characters are great.
