Shock Clinic

The Shock Clinic is made available for research in the Research Room at the outset of Melt Downs; it is a single-illness Treatment room, treating only the Visual Illness Shock Horror. It is run by a Doctor, whose efficiency can be increased by Treatment skills.

Function
Once diagnosed with Shock Horror, patients make their way to this clinic. They will step onto the centre of the platform while the doctor mans the controls. The left-hand lever will start the central cylinder spinning, and turning the wheel will have the copper capsule close around the patient, who reaches through the gaps in the sides to grip the two brass handles. The right-hand lever starts the discharging itself, as bolts of electricity crackle up both of the coil-topped towers, and between them, above the patient. After a few seconds of this the excess charge is fully drained, and the doctor will turn the wheel once more to release their visibly wilted patient from the capsule. They can then step clear, their treatment complete.

Appearance
The door is mostly beige, with an indented round-cornered rectangle taking up most of the surface. With this, a large round-cornered dark blue square takes up much of the lower half, the top half bearing a dark red equivalent, emblazoned with a black-on-yellow triangular electrical hazard symbol. The floor is made up of square tiles in a pale reddish-brown, with matching skirting board. The walls consist of seven rows of square tiles, with the top three in red, the central one in white, and the lower three in dark blue.

Unlock
The Shock Clinic is made available to develop in the Research Room at the outset of Melt Downs. The Shock Clinic research project is used to unlock it, which will require 1,000 to complete.

Upgrades
