Robodud
by Ian Waddell

Robodud is a Z-machine interactive fiction story written with Inform 6 and is © 2003 by Ian Waddell.

In this short story, you play as a Robodud, that is, a failed Robodude. Deemed useless, you have regained awareness inside a massive junkyard of scrap metal where countless other roboduds have been sent to die. Can you escape? And what's wrong with you?

This solution is by David Welbourn, and is based on Release 1 of the story.
