WE ARE THE MACHINES
Burdened with huge amounts of tedious work, the humans build machines to ease their load. The machines are glorious! There’s nothing they can’t do! But the humans soon discover that perhaps the machines are too good to be true after all, because they create an ugly, menacing smog! Despite their brain wracking, and wacky solutions, the humans cannot think of a way to get rid of the smog without shutting down the machines. Perhaps you can help?
