    Countdown to Shutdown, originally known as Countdown to Meltdown in Europe, is a 1984 video game published by Creative Sparks. In 1985 Activision published the title in the United States under the Countdown to Shutdown name.

    Gameplay

    Countdown to Shutdown is a game in which the player directs robots in an underground energy plant to cool its overheating core.[1]

    Reception

    Gregg Williams reviewed the game for Computer Gaming World, and stated that "Overall, I like the Apple version of Countdown, and I'm sure the C-64 version is even more enjoyable. If you ever get the game completely solved, you can play a randomized version that will keep you busy for a while longer."[1]
