A spaceship is getting controlled by the AI of the ship. The big robots get to control everything, humans are put in cages and the small, helpless robots, are put to sleep. You are an intruder, you're not like the other robots and you also wake up from the deep sleep. The AI acknowledges that you're now awake and puts you in a round of testing rooms together with another robot that's not willing to sleep. You're controlling both yourself and the other robot and you have to calculate your moves to pass the tests. The game ends when, right before your final execution, which gets interrupted as the AI gets shut down and humans get to control the ship again.
