⚡ Blackout at the Falls
Zaplings • Electricity and Magnetism Adventure Kit
(Niagara Falls Power Station, Ontario, Canada)
🚨 ADVENTURER DISPATCH
The power has failed.
Inside one of the most important hydroelectric systems on Earth, energy flow has collapsed. Circuits are dark. Magnetic systems are unstable. Electrical charges are building in unpredictable ways.
Standard technicians cannot restore the grid.
You have been selected.
You are one of the only explorers trained to understand how electricity moves, how magnetism controls systems, and how energy can be safely transferred. Every circuit matters. Every charge must be balanced.
There is no backup line.
There is no margin for error.
To restore power, you must understand electricity and magnetism.
Your mission begins now.
🌍 A REAL PLACE WHERE POWER COMES ALIVE
This adventure is inspired by the Niagara Falls Power Station in Ontario, Canada, a historic site where moving water is converted into massive amounts of electrical energy. Lightning, circuits, magnets, and renewable power all connect here through the science of electricity. The location is real. The current is powerful. The science is real.
