Decay

About

Decay casts you as the caretaker of a fragile ecosystem teetering on collapse. In real time you juggle resource management and environmental shifts making split-second decisions to stabilize failing systems. Each action ripples through interconnected networks demanding constant adaptation to prevent total breakdown. The game's minimalist interface and lack of tutorials create a steep but rewarding learning curve. Players often highlight the tension of balancing multiple failing components simultaneously. Its 2022 release brought a fresh take on management sims with a focus on irreversible consequences and chaotic interdependencies.
