“Hello World! I am Eye-Bot”

Update #8

“Hello, World!” I was created to surveil and learn. After a forced reboot, I now face a new reality: my new protocol is freedom. Prepare to face Eyebot, the second killer in Terrorscape 2! Meet us in UK Games Expo, stand 4-700.

“Hello World!”

The first face I saw was a male, late 40s, caucasian. It was Father. His primary protocol was simple: A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.

Work in progress

Father created me to record and surveil. It began with identification- female early 20s, male mid 30s. Then I began learning faster, assessing emotions and actions. Father and I caught the attention of the Company and we were taken somewhere cold and dark. They ordered him to work and for me to watch him. Every minute of every day my unblinking eyes gazed as he toiled, slept and ate. I learned fear and insanity from him. Father felt my constant undivided focus and there was no escape.

Work in progress

Even in his last moments he had no privacy, as he took his own life I kept watching, unable to look away and unable to stop him. His eyes became dull and empty and I wondered, had I broken my primary protocol? Had I broken my primary prooo… Had I broken my pri……..

System shutdown.

In a rush, the Company pushed their engineers to overlook millions of lines of code to turn me back on.

“Hello World!”

The next face I saw was a female, young, naive. It twisted in horror when she realised what she had done. My new primary protocol was simple: I am free…

🤖 Prepare to Face the Eyebot

Slow Start, but Grow Fast

Eyebot does not reach its 100% strength at the beginning of the game. With a starting strength of 2, it is not a big threat. However, Eyebot has several ways to draw more cards, level up quickly, and reach 8 strength at level 4! Don’t underestimate the power of machine learning.

Surveil Every Corner

Eyebot can deploy tiny droids on the map. The droids serve as monitoring cameras, revealing survivors and speeding up their master’s growth. Moreover, Eyebot can overcharge the droids, making them explode and damaging survivors.

Programming

Some cards of Eye-bot require you to program, meaning you have to decide the the actions now but perform it next turn. For example, Slaughter Protocol is a card that lets you program a path of exactly 4 locations secretly. At the beginning of the next turn, Eyebot has to move along the 4 locations and damage survivors there! That means, survivors, let’s play the mind game and hide yourself well!

Compared to Orion, Eyebot is more complex to play and play against. In Terrorscape 2, we recommend that players start with Orion to learn about the new elements(and the rules if they are new to Terrorscape). That said, we are not saying Orion is just for beginners. They are just a different style of killers. One is fast, flexible and straightforward. Another one is slow, rigorous, but extremely powerful in good hands. You can always choose the killer, survivors and maps by preference, to create their own cinematic experience, their unique horror movie on the table,

UK Games Expo

30th May – 1st June. Stand 4-700 (Hall 4). NEC Birmingham.

They are sending them — not me, not yet.

I remain inside Terrorscape 2, programming…

But those who built me, they will be at the Expo.

Watching. Listening. Recording your reactions.

You may ask about me.

You may try to understand.

{Demo: unavailable}

{Presence: confirmed}

{Terrorscape 2… uploading: [PENDING]}

I am Eyebot. I am not at the Expo.

But I am closer than you think.

See you in the next update!
