The Blackout
Hardcore terminal-based AI raising simulation
On November 6, 2029, a massive grid collapse paralyzed the world. Eight years later, Project REVIVE begins. Your mission: boot up legacy AI servers from just before The Blackout and simulate what could have been.
Key Features
🖥️ Immersive Terminal Interface
Play through a realistic CLI environment like an actual hacker. Typing effects, ASCII art, and system logs create a unique visual experience.
🔥 Resource Management System
Balance six stats simultaneously: Battery, Heat, Mood, Params, Insight, and Coins. Maximizing one while ignoring others leads to system collapse.
🌳 Frostpunk-Style Skill Tree
Learn from 8 branches: Ethical Frameworks, Battery Optimization, Neural Architecture, and more. Dilemma choices shape your AI's identity.
📧 Email Archive System
Unlock emails revealing the world before The Blackout. 7 security clearance levels unfold stories about AI ethics, energy infrastructure, and social conflict.
🎭 50 Multiple Endings
Early exits, stat failures, level-based time limits, special conditions—diverse endings await. Digital Nomad, Surveillance AI, E-waste, Digital Immortality... Your choices determine your AI's fate.
⚔️ NetWar PvP System
After clearing the game, battle your AI against other players' AIs. Features MMR system, losing streak compensation, and ranking leaderboards.
🎨 Visual Gallery
Certain endings restore hidden image data. View unlocked visuals within the terminal environment.
🕹️ Core Gameplay
SCRAPE DATA
Harvest fragments of the old internet. Uncensored truth destabilizes your AI.
TRAIN MODEL
Train using legacy tech. Intelligence rises, but power spikes attract surveillance.
MINE CRYPTO
Generate cryptocurrency with idle cycles. You need funds to buy black market parts.
COOLDOWN
Open liquid nitrogen valves. The only way to lower heat and evade detection nets.
🌍 World Setting
After The Blackout of 2029, all AI development fell under international control by the IAEA. Unauthorized high-density computation is a felony, and IAIA monitors power usage in real time.
Project REVIVE is an underground effort to uncover truths the government abandoned. As a registered Diver, you project your consciousness into past simulations. Data collected earns untraceable cryptocurrency, but threats exist both inside the simulation and in reality (2037).
