Red Rock, Colorado. 1996. Ten years after the robotics revolution began.

You wake up. You smell the wet summer forest. You watch hover-trucks fly past, full of machines and metal scrap. Their magnetic hoverdrives give out sometimes, or even let off radiation, so companies mainly use robotic drivers these days.

You’re a teenage genius enrolled at the Red Rock Institute of Technology. Ten years ago, bots were the new arms race. Now they impact every part of our life. They're in almost every home. Every industry relies on bots to do the heavy lifting.

This town is off. There's crime, destruction, exploitation. This town is gonna tear itself apart.
