In this game you control the CVV-323 robot and the game starts with you being in a prison building next to a broken teleport. By using the nearest computer you get your objectives which is to restore the energy supply and collect the pieces for a circuit board. There is five levels and on the first four the objective is the same – Find four pieces of a circuit board and activate the power for the teleport three different places.
You will also need to find access cards to open doors, and you can find new energy supplies and new weapons on your way. When finding new weapons you can change between these by pressing the keys 1, 2, 3, 4. On some of the later levels you will need to use some of the more heavy artillery against the enemy robots, else you will soon be a goner.
There is no instructions or information about the story or objectives, but you will soon figure that out by using the computers, but the game takes a twist when the computers starts to give you some strange information – Who are you ?? What is your mission ?? And as the locations becomes more and more weird (prison, office, laboratory, starship, the moon) the storyline becomes a mystery that makes you want to proceed and get the solution for.
There is some color clash here and there which many of the places easily could have been avoided, and the animations and controls of CVV-323 could be better, not that it is unplayable, it just feels a little clunky/stiff to play, but you can get used to that. The game could also really benefit of an AY soundtrack for 128k users.
Besides that it is a nice game with a lot of stuff to find and use, and a big panel at the bottom of the screen with many things to keep an eye on.
The game was made by Андрей Ефимов in 2019.
