It's like Pico's School, set in a third world country. Weird. - Newgrounds Description
Pico's Sweat Shop is a point-and-click Flash game created by EZ2 and released on November 20, 2002. It is a recreation of Pico's School, instead taking place in a run-down sweat shop, and Pico now portrayed as a South Asian child worker.
Story
The game takes place at a sweat shop somewhere in South Asia (presumably in Pakistan, according to the flag in the game), where Pico is forced into child labor. He then decides to leave the workroom, when he approaches another worker who asks Pico to kill him. He then receives a pistol off of the worker and shoots him, respecting his wish. Pico walks back into the work room and fights the slave driver; after killing him (you can also shoot his head), he takes his key and unlocks the garage door. There, he battles the fat chef at the "Finance" room, so he can take the cans of soup. After he kills the chef, Pico rides in a dune buggy and takes the cans of soup with him, avoiding the various hidden land mines, before heading to America to get a real job.
