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