In Heart of the Machine, you’ll build a robotic empire through sheer force. Guide your civilization as a benevolent machine overlord. Or forge an entirely new path in a world teetering on the edge of collapse. As a self-sufficient machine intelligence, you owe allegiance to no one, yet threats surround you at every turn.
Shape the future across multiple timelines in a sci-fi adventure filled with references, tropes, and unexpected twists. Every choice leads to different outcomes, from ruthless domination to clever diplomacy. Manipulate factions, alter history, and see how your actions change the world.
Use advanced technology to build or take control of machines, from androids to towering mechs, each suited for combat, persuasion, or stealth. Construct secret facilities within cities or create massive structures for experiments. Manage computing power, store organic matter, and unlock new possibilities by exploring a world that blends handcrafted and procedural design.
Every decision shapes your place in this fractured society, whether through domination, diplomacy, or something entirely your own. With countless opportunities and dangers ahead, the future is yours to define, that is only if you can survive what’s coming.
