What Steambot Chronicles is

Steambot Chronicles is an adventure game developed by Irem and released in 2005. It was published by Atlus. It is available on PlayStation 2 only.

The premise, in the publisher's words

Steambot Chronicles is set in a steampunk-style world where steam-powered vehicles, called Trotmobiles, are commonplace. The player assumes the role of Vanilla Beans, a young man who wakes up on the beach with no memory and soon finds himself involved in a series of events ranging from exploring the world, combat in Trotmobiles, to social and moral interactions that impact the development of the story. The game's plot is quite flexible, allowing the player to make decisions that affect the course of the narrative. There are multiple endings, depending on the choices made throughout the journey.
