About the Game

The game takes place in a world where machines roam the planet, where humans are rare to come by. Ryo is small humanoid robot tasked by its owner to retrieve six mythical circuits scattered across lands and seas. As Ryo's journey goes on, perhaps a truth unbeknownst will reveal itself, questioning the very purpose of Ryo's journey.

Gameplay

Fight a variety of foes divided into 5 chapters, each in a unique environment, most starting with easier enemies and ending with a boss.

Ryo has but one hit point and a gearwheel, so be careful not to take two consecutive hits!

Ryo fires highly pressurized four-way steam cutters to attack its enemies.
