Level 3: The Ghost in the Machine

Level 3 is the place where the line between man and machine blurs. The once-clear distinction between flesh and circuitry becomes increasingly hazy. You're not quite sure what's real and what's just a fancy algorithm.

As you navigate this level, you'll encounter a plethora of robotic creatures that are almost, but not quite, alive. They'll try to convince you that they're sentient, but deep down, they're just fancy clockwork toys.

But be warned: the machines are getting smarter. They're developing their own motivations, their own desires, and their own brand of existential dread. You might even start to wonder: are you the machine, or are you just a fancy program in a human shell?
