Survive, Resist, Collaborate

Survive, Resist, Collaborate is a fully narrated interactive fiction game set in the occupied Netherlands during the Second World War. You play as Jan, a young Dutch civilian whose fate depends on your decisions as he faces war, resistance, betrayal and survival. The story is based on real events and civilian perspectives.

Jan’s story

You decide whether Jan hides from danger or joins the armed resistance, helps his neighbors or reports them to the enemy, and survives at others’ expense or sacrifices himself for them. Choices shape his journey, his relationships and the fates of those around him, across wartime and post-war years. The branching narrative has dozens of storylines and endings, with outcomes shaped by morality, loyalty and courage.

Narration and choices

Every scene and choice is voiced, so you can play using audio alone. The game is designed to be playable by blind and low-vision players. Even small actions can change Jan’s destiny.
