This sequel to The Outer Limits is not quite as sophisticated, though it presents a few new twists on Chase’s calling cards. This time the multi-block monsters are enormous robots that stomp across the countryside. The solution almost calls to mind a traditional PC-style graphical adventure, in that (spoilers ahead) your goal is to steal one of the antagonists’ firearms out of her hands, and then turn it on her robot master.
