Steam Store description

Criticality is a casual incremental clicker game about splitting atoms and creating chain reactions. Click. Split. React. Dominate the chain reaction in a casual incremental blast of cold-war chaos! You’re a hapless engineer caught dead-center in Cold War politics, stuck with a rickety reactor and a whole lot of very volatile atoms. No fancy degrees or top-secret training, just your screwdriver, a dream, and a ticking clock of bizarre, high-stakes situations. Here’s how you go nuclear (without blowing up the lab… probably): Click to Unleash Neutrons - Tap to fire a single neutron, watch atoms absorb, split, and detonate in a cascading chain reaction. The longer the chain, the bigger the points haul, simple as that (until the atoms start getting tricky ). Upgrade your reactor, Unlock Chaos - Spend your hard-earned points for game-changing upgrades that supercharge your reactor. Unlock new mechanics, boost neutron output, and turn tiny fizzles into earth-shaking blasts that rack up points faster than you can say “critical mass.” Chase the Ultimate Reaction - Push your reactor to its breaking point, hit critical mass, and reap the rewards… if you don’t accidentally trigger a meltdown first. Every click brings you closer to nuclear glory (or a very awkward conversation with your supervisor). Go Criticality now – and remember: when brute force isn't working, you're not using enough of it!
