人のもういない空っぽの家を、家庭用汎用性ロボットRJ6388265がいつまでも守り続けています。 RJ6388265の記憶媒体の容量は限られ、家を増強し制御システムをアップデートしていくにつれて、家主との記憶も含まれた記憶データを失っていきます。 <ミサイル> 敵を指でなぞるとロックオンし、指を離すとミサイルが発射されます。 <家の増強と制御システムのアップデート> 敵を壊していくと部品が溜まり、規定値に達すると家を増強することができます。 家の増強が可能な状態でのみ、削除される記憶データにアクセスすることができます。 記憶データを削除し制御システムを上書きすることによって、ミサイル同時発射数が増加し、家も大きく拡張されます。 削除した記憶データにはアクセスすることができません。 <電波> 敵を混乱させ呼び寄せる電波を、10分おきに使用することができます。 電波使用中はミサイルのリロード速度が大幅に短縮されます。 おと:soejima takuma さく:ところにょり
