Route uncertain signals through a failing city before the network collapses.
RELAY NULL is an offline information-strategy game about operating the last independent communications relay in a failing city.
Every shift gives you more traffic than you can safely process. Reports arrive with different urgency, provenance, reliability and deadlines. Trace sources, compare conflicting transmissions, verify what matters, quarantine bad information and choose the physical route that will carry each message through a damaged network.
The city remembers what you do. District stability, organization trust and backbone condition persist between shifts, changing future source access, investigation costs and route capacity. A fast decision can save a district. A believable false report can consume the route another emergency needed.

Can you keep the city connected when certainty costs time and every route has a price?
