Blackout turns AI datacenters into a two-player strategy game
A browser game for two: hide six real AI datacenters, a power plant and an ops room on a map, then try to take the other player's buildings offline.
- For
- Two people looking for a tactical browser game
- Worth noticing
- Unfinished datacenters use publicly reported plans rather than measurements, according to the rules.
Field notes
Players place eight buildings on separate maps, then probe one cell at a time; a hit grants another probe, while a miss usually hands over the turn. A surviving ops room lets a turn survive one miss, and a darkened plant makes the next turn less reliable. The optional camera-and-microphone mode connects browsers directly: audio is briefly distorted after a breach, while a coarse red-digit image appears for about three seconds. The page says images stay in-browser and warns that the direct connection exposes each player's network address.
