Every Day the Same Dream (stylised in sentence case) is a short, 2D art game by Paolo Pedercini. The player is put in the role of a man whose monotonous life is about to change. Developed for the Experimental Gameplay Project at Carnegie Mellon University in 2009, the game has been described as "a beautiful game with a very bleak outlook."[1] Pedercini says it is "a short existential game about alienation and refusal of labor."[1] It has been compared to Passage by Jason Rohrer and Don't Look Back by Terry Cavanagh in that it is "an interesting, potentially fascinating experience."[2] The game is offered as freeware under the Creative Commons license CC BY-NC-SA 2.5.[3]
