Zeus: Carnage Heart Second (ゼウス カルネージハートセカンド Zeusu karunējihātosekando) is a single player sci-fi simulation game released by Artdink for Windows in December 1999 for Japan only.
Gameplay
The game takes place in the future where conflicts are fought with hi-tech war machines. These robots are named Overkill Engines (OKEs). The player cannot directly control them in-game, but has to buy components and program their behavior for various battle conditions.
Players can also purchase, research, or upgrade new equipment, parts, and the robots themselves in order to use them for an extended amount of time.
The basic system is the same as the previous Zeus games, but it has made significant improvements such as enhancing the graphical aspect, improving operability, new aircraft and logic program.
The PC version had a function to exchange OKE data via Internet mail. Apart from the fact that a scenario was seemingly also added, it is a direct port of the PlayStation version.

Availability
The game was considered extremely rare (most probably due to low production numbers and/or bad sales) and despite being listed on Amazon Japan, and having a still-functional official game page, a copy of it was not found for many years.
On September 8th, 2019, user FelixFerret of the Lost Media Wiki Discord channel posted a link of the game, which they say was originally posted by user i1150503 at the Legends World gaming forum.[1]
