14 FreedroidRPG tells the story of a world destroyed by a conflict between
15 robots and their human masters. Play as Tux in a quest to save the world
16 from the murderous rebel bots who know no mercy. You get to choose which
17 path you wish to follow, and freedom of choice is everywhere in the game.
18
19 FreedroidRPG features a real time combat system with melee and ranged
20 weapons, fairly similar to the proprietary game Diablo. There is an in‐
21 novative system of programs that can be run in order to take control of
22 enemy robots, alter their behavior, or improve one's characteristics.
23 You can use over 150 different kinds of items and fight countless enemies
24 on your way to your destiny. An advanced dialog system provides story
25 background and immersive role playing situations.
