The Story
---------
You are a freedom fighter -- a member of the resistance -- fighting against
your country's tyrannical dictator and his henchman the Mad Scientist.
Your tiny country is dominated by two massive structures, the Tower and the
Dome. In the game Robomaze II (available from MVP Software) you conquered the
tower and destroyed the Mad Scientist and his robots.
Your escape helicopter took off from the tower in search of the dome and the
evil dictator. With radio help from the Resistance, and after dodging several
interceptor aircraft sent by the evil dictator's forces, you located the dome.
Your helicopter safely touched down on a landing pad near the top and you
quickly entered the dome.
Unfortunately in the confusion you left your gun in the tower. Your armored
suit has no special abilities outside of the tower. You are defenseless! But
you vow to destroy the evil dictator and thus end the reign of terror currently
in effect in your beloved country.
Good luck. The Resistance is counting on your success.

inhabitants. Pipes carry water to t
