The Ministry of Purpose has conscripted you as a Terminal Operator, tasked with overseeing a secure containment facility. Your purpose is to lock doors, assign tasks to staff, meet your shift requirements and ensure the containment of all subjects - all from the "safety" of your terminal.
Terminal Operator
Steam
Citizen, you have been conscripted by the Ministry of Purpose to work as a Terminal Operator at a classified containment facility in Westmont. From your terminal, you will oversee every critical system. You will issue commands, maintain operational integrity, and monitor staff and subjects.
This is not a request. Your compliance is mandatory.
Your purpose begins now.

All questions you may have can be answered by the Operator Manual available at your work station - NO communication with other staff at the facility in Westmont is permitted. Terminal commands must be typed precisely. Incorrect syntax or typing errors can result in detrimental circumstances under time pressure. From observing the facility, managing staff behavior, to initiating gas protocols — learn the role or be replaced.
The Ministry of Purpose and The State have no tolerance for failure.

The security of the containment facility is the only priority. Monitor movements of staff and subjects in the facility, respond to request to open doors and initiate gas, purge and lockdown protocols when necessary. Operators have reported anomalies and hallucinations, ensure you are focused on your purpose and nothing else.

Failure to report or amend any irregular incidents will result in ramifications. Gas leaks, power outages, door malfunctions and staff losses are likely to occur. Amending incidents to protect the facility is paramount. Your purpose must be served with calm and efficiency.

A breach is not failure, it is termination. Your one and only priority is the security of the containment facility. Under no circumstances should a subject be allowed to reach the entrance hallway to the facility.
There will be no alarm, only silence.
