Concept: Survival horror game where the entire structure of the game is turning on progressively bigger generators to unlock the area behind which lies the fuel/key/missing part for the next generator, culminating in the player switching on a nuclear reactor

The twist? It has the best sound design when it comes to turning on the generators and them powering up.
Weirdly enough, my favorite generator restarting is Disco Elysium, and I think part of that is how rusty and busted that place feels.
No shiny brand new sci-fi reactors, not even a mysteriously well preserved lost ancient tech ruin, these should be essentially scraps.
Players will get mad how many are "basically another steam engine", but realism.
This game exists and it is called CHR$(143). It's on steam here:
