Introducing Chemical Robots

Hey Salvagers,

Two Robots has five distinct types of robots. Each robot has its own separate backstory and place within our storyline. Today, we are going to talk about the chemical robot. The chemical robot is pretty important to us at Two Robots because it was the first ever sketched out robot. In a way, this robot was the inception of the game — and had a large part influencing other robots.

ChemicalRobot

Storyline

Do not ignore toxicity, for it is there, whether or not one chooses to see. You must observe it and find ways to combat it. With time and attention, anything can be made new and hospitable for all."

Dr. Max von Bergman (223 RE)

Inspired by the ecological researchers who gave a presentation about pollution to his third-grade class, Dr. Max von Bergman vowed from an early age to devote his life toward cleaning the filth of the system's next planet, Vitaus. 32 years and 2 PhDs later, the Chemical Robots he grew up scribbling on napkins and notepads became the building blocks of water-filtration dams, constructed downstream from production factories and industrial plants. The toxins in their massive containment units would be collected monthly and used in a variety of studies conducted by the next generation of researchers at a local university. Dr. Bergman's designs would be adapted for use on future robots.
