STORY OF PAKO
─────────────
The year is 20XX, strange new life-forms have begun to
appear everywhere. Scientist have concluded the origin of these
life-forms to be from space but are unable to pin-point exactly
where. These life-forms have a very short life-span, but
reproduce at a geometric rate. The population finds them more
annoying than the common cockroach and have named them SPACE-
PESTS. Because these pests have a very high resistance against
ordinary pesticides, scientist have bio-engineered Pako(YOU). An
ANTI-SPACE-PEST constructed from DNA from the SPACE-PESTS
themselfs.
The fallowing are 100 tests designed to measure Pako's
intelligence and dependability to do the job of eliminating as
many SPACE-PESTS on Earth as possible. Pako's specific design
is not to find and kill the SPACE-PESTS, but to seek and destroy
their eggs. In order for Pako to become the newest member in
planet Earth's food chain, he must eat all the eggs within the
100 tests. There are bonuses as well as traps added to each of
the tests. Also a limited number of SPACE-PESTS are going to be
released to measure his ability to cope with with them. If Pako
succeds, he will be cloned and given to the public. If he does
not then he will be terminated.
