The Armageddon App is a Keen 5 mod released by 55Aavenue.

This mod is considered to be the sequel to Short Circuit Oracle and therefore part of the so called Goodbye Galaxy Rebooted series. Both mods are meant to be a modern reboot of the original classic Keen Goodbye Galaxy story line. This series has fun with the idea of having the Keen story occur in the present day of smartphones and social media.

Story

Last episode, in Short Circuit Oracle Keen traveled to Gnosticus IV and rescued the Gnosticene I.T. department members so they could repair their super computer, the Oracle, and use it find the location of the Shikadi, who are threatening to destroy the galaxy. After learning the location of the Shikadi and their Armageddon machine, which once completed they plan to detonate remotely from an app on their smart phones, Keen races to the Korath system to put a stop to this plan before its too late...
