In a subversion of a cliched trope, at the top of the city are the shop workers and janitors, and as you progress further down you will find wealthier citizens. Also, the city inhabitants seem to be going crazy, seemingly unaware of the situation around them, which is hilariously presented in a trial scene, where the judge thinks that the trial is a game show, and hands out ridiculous sentences. Various residents will say that Hobart Corporation is winning the “economic war”, by flooding the market with as they say “cheap, gimmicky garbage”, but it is never revealed if this is true. First of all, there seems to be a conflict between Union City and a rival Hobart Corporation, and each of them wants to achieve market dominance by the use of sabotage. With nowhere to go, Robert decides to roam the cities and hopefully find some answers.Īs the game progresses you will learn that not all is well in Union City. He learns that the city is controlled by LINC (Logical Inter-Neural Connection) and that he has been labeled a terrorist by soldiers. Shortly after arriving in Union City, the helicopter malfunctions, but Robert survives and flees. The game starts, when the soldiers from Union City kidnap Foster and destroy his tribe. Joey’s personality is stored on a small circuit board and thus can easily be put in different robots, which allows him to change his “shell”, provided that the circuit board is not damaged. Robert is intelligent and he learns to engineer and builds a talking robot companion Joey. Remembering only his name Robert, the tribe names him Robert Foster, partially because they fostered him and also because of a beer can of Foster Lager (a reference lost in other releases of the game), found near the crash site. The story follows Robert, a boy who is a sole survivor of a helicopter crash in the Gap (a wasteland of sorts in the game) and was raised by an aboriginal tribe.
