Runaway Wrecking Bot

A 3-ton autonomous demolition robot has gone haywire during the delicate renovation of the 150-year-old Morrison Theater. As the site's Systems Control Engineer, you have 10 minutes to prevent the bot from breaching the building's historic facade. The neural override requires precise command syntax while the robot's original programmer, now bitter about being fired, watches your struggle through remote access.

About This Scenario

How It Starts

“Oh my... having trouble with my little ML-850 are we? *chuckles* I'd help, but they said I was 'too dangerous' to keep around. Tick tock though - that heritage facade won't survive much longer. Want to try guessing the override syntax?”
