Background:
"A.I.M."(Artificial Intelligence Machine) is a 3D adventure simulator set in sci-fi world of extremely distant future. Game action unfolds on Range-4 - an abandoned planet, former a military test zone. Player shifts over the world in a glider - a multipurpose combat vehicle with antigravity engines. However, traveling is not the goal of the game, though exploration of a novel area exposes new opportunities. Player engages in combat, trade, fulfils different quests, communicates with the self-like creatures, and takes part in organizations' relations. He can upgrade his glider, buy more powerful weapons and gain access to hidden information and unique gliders. Life on the Range is full of danger and breathtaking adventures.
Gameplay:
Player discovers a huge game universe consisting of 8 different zones. The story doesn't urge the player for instant movement so he can stay in particular zone until he feels that time has come to advance further. Player has combat vehicles (gliders) at his disposal, and he can meet similar gliders which are guided by his enemies. All depends on the relations between him and the others. There are no monsters to kill but there are friends, enemies and those who do not care about player at all until he spots their presence.
Profitable trade and successful combats will quickly help the player to earn money to purchase a more powerful glider, better weapon and feel stronger. Player can join an organization and enlist its support but there are plenty of them and they often are at war with each other. Victorious battles increase player's rating. Decent rating opens for a player an opportunity to acquire unique weapons and gliders, to become a member of a powerful clan. Weak will fear and respect him.
