Mesozoikum: Reactor Civilization
Profit. Power. Consequences.
Take control of an aging nuclear reactor in a world where profit matters more than safety and statistics can always be adjusted.
CONTROLLED MELTDOWN is a satirical nuclear management game where you oversee every aspect of a power plant: neutron density, temperature, cooling systems, power grids, personnel — and most importantly, how the truth is handled when things go wrong.
A small mistake? → Incident. Ignored warnings? → Partial meltdown. A really bad day? → Build a sarcophagus.
As long as the money keeps flowing, everything is… acceptable.
