@@Gr3nadgr3gory I just want to preface that this comment isn't meant to come off as aggressive. I just want to clarify the purpose and importance of call trees in a company setting. Call trees are used to route calls to the people that are most applicable to the issue at hand in order to maximize workplace efficiency (i.e. Company Number -> Accounting Department -> Specific Person). If it were done manually, the person you call would have to route the call to ea ch next tier of the tree anyway. In this game, it was taken to the extreme with so many layers and with such specificity that it the call tree became pointless. A well optimized call tree is supposed to balance the ease of use from both the caller and operator. A three layer deep call tree should only take maybe 30 seconds MAX to get you to a real person.

Even better, make it one of those systems that doesn't account for half of common use cases and doesn't provide a "speak to a representative" option so you have to try and figure out how to confuse the system enough to trigger the backup "speak to a real person" command. Lemme tell you, that was a fun time back when one of my meds had a shortage and I had to call a bunch of local pharmacies to see if they had any and if I could switch over my prescription. Whoever designed those automatic phone programs never thought to include "speak to a pharmacist about my medications" so I can only imagine the kind of infuriating things they'd leave out of a "speak to the president to prevent nuclear war" menu. (But seriously whoever designed those speak-instead-of-numpad menus deserves to burn in hell)

If either party picked up the receiver on one phone, the phone belonging to the other party would ring. It was a direct line, and you best believe that they picked up if it ever did.

I find it fascinating how the theme/plot of this game seems to correlate with a real life event. In 1962, during the Cuban Missile Crisis, a USSR submarine came across a U.S. navy submarine in international waters. The USSR sub had lost contact with the mainland, and weren’t sure if a war had broken out and if they should shoot the sub down with their nuclear missiles or not. The captain ordered to launch the missiles at the US sub, but in order to do so, the three officers aboard had to unanimously agree. One officer, Vasily Aleksandrovich Arkhipov, refused to launch the missiles. He was shamed when he returned home, some saying he should have launched the missiles and gone down with his ship in an “honorable death.” He died 16 years later from radiation exposure when the reactor coolant of the submarine he was on sprung a leak. Today, he is credited as he man who solely prevented a full-scale nuclear war. Had he not refused to launch the nuclear missiles, the world today as we know it would not exist.

During the Cold War, U.S.N. and Soviet Navy nuclear submarines used to meet on the surface near 49 degrees South, 123 degrees West, aka Point Nemo, for secret and highly unauthorized "summits", which began as grim acts of desperation after the Cuban Missile Crisis, although by the 1980s they had become more like "Burning Man at Sea". Nuclear submariners had a shared perspective no other people on Earth could understand. That's why not even the KGB political officers aboard the Soviet subs ever reported the gatherings, and looked the other way while logs were fudged to conceal them.

Most things that are social commentaries are always exaggerated and blown out of proportion, to exemplify the intense emotions the author may feel about the topic. This just shows how ridiculous and stressful red tape and bureaucracy are, it uses the example of nuclear fucking Armageddon to make the situation that much more stressful. It's like how in Wall-e the company's solution to pollution it to just skedaddle out of the planet and leave it to rot.

Petrov's actions that day are getting more notice. His part in the nuclear command and control system was solely to pass along the information of a possible US strike, he did not have authority to authorise a strike. He simply delayed passing the alert up the chain of command, as he did not there was therefore no chance for the order to be given. He was criticised afterwards for not doing his job and received a reprimand. The explanation was it wasn't his job to decide if a strike was inbound or not, that was the job of command, who had access to a wide range of sensors, plus the "hot line". The Soviet high command insist they wouldn't have launched a counter-strike anyways (after all, if Petrov could figure out this was a false alarm, then they could as well) his action was not needed, and if it was a real attack their command system was compromised. But we will never know if the Soviet high command would have made the right call, and it's for the best we never needed to find out!

This game reminds me of one of those flash games that tells you not to press the red button and you do it anyway. Most of the time it repeatedly asks you why did you do it, or attempt to reason with you. If anyone knows what I'm talking about, I'd be surprised...

I like the decision to keep codes consistent - it emulates the fact that if you have the codes ready it makes it much easier. This makes repeat playthroughs feel like "true" playthroughs, since the person in that position would (hopefully!) have that info to hand.

This game reminds me of a game called DEFCON. It's more of a strategy game than a horror game, but it has some horror elements: screams of people, loud sirens, overwhelming enemy forces enemy forces, numbers of civilian casualties in the millions, ect. The game is so realistic to how nuclear war would actually turn out that is was used by scientists to determine peoples views on nuclear war. Their test involved people who played DEFCON vs people who didn't, and the participants were asked how dangerous they thought of nuclear war. The people who played DEFCON ended up thinking about nuclear war way more carefully and the game helped them learn in depth how terrifying nuclear war actually is.
