WHEELLOCK is a game about protecting your city from attacking monsters in a giant robot, despite dwindling power supplies.

You have only 9 seconds of power left in your old robot due to the extended assault, and need to protect the city for 6 hours until backup can arrive.

Your robot is controlled by a spinning wheel, and you can decide what the segments are, but not where the wheel lands.  Conquer fate and chance to protect the city by building an unbeatable robot, researching the right upgrades, and overcharging your already limited power supply.
