Paradroid

The game takes place on a spaceship from a top-down perspective. The ship consists of numerous rooms and levels, each populated by enemy robots or "droids". The player controls a special droid called the "Influence Device" and must destroy all other droids on the ship. Each droid (including the player) is represented by a circle with a three-digit number. The numbers roughly correspond to the "power" or "level" of the droid, as droids with higher numbers are harder to destroy. The Influence Device has the number "001". The Influence Device primarily destroys other droids by "bonding" with them and taking them over, so to speak. If the player takes over another droid, the previously controlled droid is destroyed.
