About Liquidators

✦ AI summary

Navigate the irradiated ruins of Chernobyl in this first-person horror experience, using your Geiger counter to survive deadly environments while commanding a team of liquidators with unique abilities. Each decision determines whether your squad escapes the disaster zone alive, offering a respectful tribute to the real heroes who contained the catastrophe.

EPILEPSY WARNING: Do not play if you are sensitive to flashing lights.

Based on true events, this first-person, atmospheric horror experience will have you traverse the radioactive bowels of the Chernobyl blast site, carefully orienting your every step based on the readings of your Geiger counter. Each liquidator has their own set of skills to provide a variety of approaches for each hazardous challenge. Whether they all make it out, or succeed at all, is in your hands.

This project is dedicated to all the liquidators, first responders, and support units that responded to the Chernobyl disaster. Through interactivity, people can experience the simulated danger and horrors of their missions firsthand. It is our goal to raise awareness/support for the people that contained the fallout.

Originally, we did this by promoting donations for Chernobyl Children International and similar organizations in lieu of paying for the game. However, as the devastating war in Ukraine has unfolded (including the terrifying standoff at Chernobyl), we are now asking that players donate to the UNICEF fund for affected Ukrainian children.

UNICEF Ukrainian Children's Fund: Since Steam no longer allows links on storefronts, we ask people to search for "Unicef Ukraine" on their browsers and donate on the official Unicef website for Ukrainian war victims. 
(We are not affiliated with UNICEF, Chernobyl Children International, or any other organization. We chose to showcase UNICEF and Chernobyl Children International because of their reputation. This game was an independently developed student project by a small team of volunteers from various backgrounds.)

✦ AI summary

Liquidators is a short, atmospheric horror game set in Chernobyl that players praise for its intense gameplay, historical tribute to the real liquidators, and genuinely scary moments despite its brief length. Most players found the trial-and-error engineer selection engaging and appreciated the game's respectful approach to a real tragedy, though some note it requires persistence to complete. Players seem to feel it's worth experiencing, particularly for those interested in Chernobyl history or atmospheric horror.

Short, tense, and tastes like corium. Took a few runs figuring out which engineer to use for each situation. Eventually, through trial and error and many broken flashlights, I ended up completing it with just one. 10/10 would try to lick the Elephant's Foot again.

This is true horror. The fact that in reality, these men did this in complete darkness is mind-boggling. 10/10 tribute to the brave men that prevented a massive tragedy

Games like Borderlands 3: guns that roll, trees that branch

Games like Borderlands 3 have to do two things at once: roll a new gun every few minutes and make a skill tree worth planning. These manage both, and one asks you to craft instead.

Games like Noita, where the physics is the real enemy

Games like Noita for the two things it really does: spells you assemble yourself, and a simulated world that takes nobody's side. Seven picks, from a slugcat to a dwarf fortress.
