Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0/day in the week to Aug 23 → 0.86/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.
About
Chernobyl Simulator puts you in the control room of the most infamous nuclear power plant in history. Step into the shoes of a Chernobyl reactor operator, where every switch, gauge, and decision matters. Experience the pressure, responsibility, and unforgiving complexity of Soviet-era nuclear operations.
You will manage the systems of Reactor 4—core, thermal output, water flow, turbine load, safety mechanisms, and more—while navigating authentic procedures based on real historical documentation. As the situation escalates, you must react quickly and precisely. One wrong move can set off a chain reaction that spirals out of control.
Authentic Nuclear Power Plant Simulation
Operate detailed and realistic reactor systems modeled after the RBMK-1000 design. Understand how each subsystem interacts and how your actions affect the reactor.
Dynamic Scenarios & Emergencies
Start with routine operations, then face unexpected complications—from minor fluctuations to catastrophic failures.
Historical Atmosphere
Immerse yourself in the iconic 1980s Soviet industrial environment with carefully recreated interiors, equipment, and documentation.
Learn How a Nuclear Reactor Works
Master complex engineering systems through interactive tutorials, guided procedures, and hands-on experimentation.
Multiple Endings
Will you maintain stable output? Cause a near miss? Or witness the plant push past the point of no return?
Chernobyl Simulator offers a tense, educational, and deeply engaging look into one of the world's most significant technological disasters. Can you keep the reactor stable—or will history repeat itself?
This simulation aims to replicate the real nuclear power plant operations in high detail so it can put a lot of load on new players and it requires patience. There is an online wiki page describing reactor operation at wiki.rikarin.io.

Extrem gutaussehende, komplexe Simulation eines RBMK-Reaktors des Kernkraftwerks Tschernobyl. Absolute Empfehlung für Leute, welche sich für die Reaktorkatastrophe von Tschernobyl interessieren. Hier geht es jedoch nicht um die Katastrophe selbst, sondern um den sicheren Betrieb des Reaktors. Zum aktuellen Zeitpunkt ist das Bedienpult des Reaktorkontrollingenieurs fast vollständg nachgebildet und fast jeder Knopf lässt sich bedienen und hat seinen Sinn. Die Pulte für die Wasserpumpen und Turbinen sind derzeit noch in Entwicklung, sollen aber bald folgen. Man sollte erwähnen, dass man derzeit fortgeschrittenes Wissen über die Bedienung eines Kernreaktors und den Aufbau von RBMK Reaktoren besitzen muss. Es gibt zwar ein Tutorial, aber dieses ist scheinbar unvollständig und funktioniert nicht richtig bzw. gibt unklare Anweisungen. Ich habe es in 15 Spielstunden nicht geschafft, den Reaktor vollständig hochzufahren. Man kann jedoch auch einen Spielstand mit einem Reaktor unter Vollast beginnen. Man braucht daher auch eine starke Frusttoleranz bzw. muss man sich auch am Scheitern begeistern können. Es ist eine Hardcore-Simulation. Ich bin optimistisch, dass diese Probleme (vor allem ein sinnvoller interaktiver Guide/Tutorial) behoben werden. Der Entwickler hat große Pläne und eine umfangreiche Roadmap. Ich hoffe, er bleibt an der Entwicklung dran, denn es ist das bisher vielversprechendste Spiel/Simulation über Tschernobyl. Ich werde die Entwicklung weiter verfolgen und bin bereits jetzt ein großer Fan und hoffe, dass die Simulation sehr bekannt wird!

An excellent game that fully justifies its price 👍
Theres a minor bug but im not sure if theres a fix, when going up the stairs in the adjacent room, on the second or third steps you get stuck. Jumping does not help. Otherwise this game is neat! needs more tho thats for sure.
игра безусловно классная, все очень хорошо реализовано, но все же игра очень сырая, по сути там нечего делать кроме как следить за тепловой мощностью (которая обновляется раз в 10-15 секунд). выйдет в полный доступ - обязательно куплю
Is this unity 4 or 3 idk
Very Nice
не показывает мощность реактора
yes i do recommend this game its very fun and there will hopefully be later updates to make it better and the glory of 16 alarms going of oh and a little hint when you load the game and go to the wall behined you there will be a force reactor to go KOBOOM! button on the wall.
Очень интересная игра,с нетерпением жду обновление!
