City of the Great Machine 

Towards the end of the 19th Century, the greatest minds came together to create a perfect city, using the most advanced technology available to them, and creating at the heart of the city, the Great Machine, an artificial intelligence network – but one which took control of all aspects of life. You'll need to rise up against the machine in a one-vs-many strategy game in the heart of technocratic victorian steampunk.
