Jesus Christ this feels like some truly mid Bioshock Infinite with even less sociopolitical commentary except for vague "rebellion" but in steampunk

Tonight We Riot is so far the best revolution game and it is in no way a story heavy game (it's legit just socialist Oklos style mob combat game) but captures how the revolution is not led by the "ultimate hero" bullshit
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tooth_and_Tail I found interesting, it is quite brutal and a bit icky, but nearly gets to materialism. It deserves much more praise and is a stark critic against idealists and left communists (if you read it like that at least).
The hero of that game is the red flag
You can't kill an idea.
Check out Red Faction: Guerilla. You play a union guy fighting back against Space America in a maoist insurgency with the serial numbers filed off. Terrorism is good, direct action gets the goods, solidarity forever, building destruction never seen before or since, The Hammer, and the final level is the suburbs. It's as good as a game can get on politics without being Disco Elysium.
