Feed the Machine
Introduction
You and your crew arrived the Mars and built a nice big dome where you placed your most important machines to survive. Unfortunately all of your crew was exterminated by some space environment issues and now you are totally alone.
All the stuff in your dome was mixed up during an earthquake and you just regain your consciousness and see the big mess. Now it's up to you to survive and keep the machines alive till the shuttle arrives and rescues you.
Your job is to create O2 and reduce the CO amount with your O2 Generator.
You need also some food and water which will be produced by the Greenhouse.
To call for help and your rescue shuttle, you have to use the Radio Station.
And to survive the passage from your dome to the shuttle you have to collect some damaged space suit parts (Three of each) Helmet, Pants, Jacket.
and combine them to one functional on your Workbench.
If everything is done, you can leave the dome through The Exit and enjoy your safe trip back home.
BUT every machine is pretty damaged and break from time to time, so you have to repair them frequently.
You have to have a look at the pipes aswell. Usually they pump out the Carbon Monoxid out of the dome, but even the pipes can break and your dome fills slowly with the dangerous gas. So go and fix the Pipes.
Next to that, everything in your dome needs some Power so the most important machine is your ENGINE. Throw everything you don't need into it and produce some electricity with burning them.
Even the Exit needs some power to let you go.
soooo..... KEEP THE ENGINE ALIVE
