Freedroid (also known as “FreedroidClassic”) is an arcade/shooter game that was designed as a clone of the classic game Paradroid on Commodore 64. It spawned (and shares some source code with) FreedroidRPG. A version was included on OpenSource Game Power volume 2.
Gameplay[edit]
You control a droid in a spaceship full of droids that have gone berserk. Your weapon is weak, but your droid has a strategical advantage: You can hack into other droids, allowing you to control those instead. The spaceship consists of several decks connected by elevators.
The goal is to destroy all enemy droids by shooting or taking over them in a minigame in which you need to connect electronic circuits.
