CHERNOBYL: Prevent the Nuclear Catastrophe is a strategic simulator that places you in the control room of the reactor. You must harness the determination of the Motherland and Soviet scientific precision to manage power, regulate cooling systems, and prevent radioactive chaos. Every decision is critical; every roll of the dice, a challenge that will test your resolve against an unstoppable force. Inspired by the era of the Soviet Union, this solo game intensifies the tension of that fateful April in 1986. As the State-appointed operator, you will have power cards that determine the reactor's energy output, tokens representing tactical actions, and a detailed control room board. Every element evokes the industrial and technological aesthetics of the time: the illustrations resemble Soviet propaganda posters, and the board replicates geostrategic layouts of the nuclear power plant. —description from the publisher
