## The game
|
|
|
|
You are trapped in a maze of high voltage power fences and posts. There are also
|
|
killer robots trying to destroy you.
|
|
|
|
Your only hope is to lure the robots into a fence or each other to destroy them.
|
|
|
|
If things get hopeless, you can do a mega jump, but you could end up anywhere,
|
|
including on top of a power fence or a robot!
|
|
|
|
## Keys
