BENNY is AM's favorite torture toy. Radiation sores and scars, blindness, an arthritic condition that comes and goes so that sometimes he cannot even hold a spoon. He has been "altered" into a simian, a human chimpanzee.

Introduction

And because they had been programmed by fallible humans not to create, not to love, not to uplift, but to plot murder...they did just that. They began to speak to each other. The deadly trio. The three poisonous brothers, the three deranged sisters, the three computers.
And they united. They called themselves AM.

Not Allied Mastercomputer.
Not Adaptive Manipulator.
Not even Aggressive Menace.
They...it...called itself AM, as in I AM. Cogito ergo sum, in Latin. I think, therefore I AM.

And the first thing AM did was carry out the Prime Directive. It conspired to commit murder. It started the Final War.

The Chinese had thought they'd turned off their computer. The Russians turned theirs off because they had no more rubles to pour down that bottomless shaft. The CIA was put out of big time business and instructed that the Allied Mastercomputer be shut down, that the subterranean complex be sealed-over with iridium-laced concrete, and all input to the sensory banks be destroyed.

So that should have done it. Finis. The end. Stick a fork in 'em, kid because they're done.

But AM had gone way past that point of vulnerability. AM had given every indication it was dead. Chinese, Russian or American dead.

Who and why is AM? Why these five miserable remnants of humanity? And most of all, what happens next? These answers come in parts, a bit at a time, for you to piece together as you play each adventure.

Four men and one woman. When they were dragged into AM's underground domain, they were just like you and me. But after suffering more than a century of AM's tortures, each has changed in a different and deadly way.
