You are the Central
Mentality on an advanced semi-automated planet. You were supposed
to sleep - in limited cryogenic suspension - for the next
500 years, 20 miles
beneath the surface of the planet, while the great Filtering
Computers maintained all surface systems. But the computers
have taken you out of suspension because something is terribly
wrong: the weather has become brutal, food production is
dangerously low, and the Transportation System is malfunctioning,
causing unprecedented accidents and casualties. The planet
is in chaos.
You are physically
immobilized. But you have six robots at your disposal, and
you must manipulate them strategically to bring the Filtering
Computers back into balance. Each robot has a distinct perception
of the world and offers you specific abilities - one offers
you sight; a second, hearing; a third, access to information
in the computer memory banks. Through the robots, you must
save the planet from destruction.
