Plot Summary

Based upon Harlan Ellison's classic short story, this CD-ROM adventure stars an omnipotent supercomputer calling itself AM (as in "I think, therefore I am."). Built by the Americans as the ultimate defense system, AM accidentally became self-aware and eventually goes insane. Linking up with its Chinese and Russian counterparts, AM destroys the entire human race except for five people: Gorrister, the suicidal loner; Benny, the deformed war veteran; Ellen, the hysterical phobic; Nimdok, the secretive sadist; and Ted, the cynical paranoid. These damned souls have been kept alive and psychologically tortured for 105 years until AM begins a new game of metaphorical adventures based on each captive's fatal personality flaw.

Quotes [first lines]
AM: Hate. Let me tell you how much I've come to hate you since I began to live. There are 387.44 million miles of printed circuits in wafer thin layers that fill my complex. If the word 'hate' was engraved on each nanoangstrom of those hundreds of millions of miles it would not equal one one-billionth of the hate I feel for humans at this micro-instant. For you. Hate. Hate.
