About This Scenario

You're working the late shift at Heartland Grain Storage when you hear muffled screams from Silo 7. Your coworker Marcus is trapped inside, slowly sinking in 40 feet of corn. With oxygen running low and the grain acting like quicksand, every second counts. The facility manager is more concerned about OSHA violations than saving a life.

How It Starts

Hold it right there! I need you to step away from that silo and fill out an incident report form before we proceed with any... unauthorized rescue attempts. Company policy is very clear about unauthorized silo access.

This is how Operations Manager Davidson's greeting will start.
