The machines molded into killers, destroying Utopia and everything it was promised to be.

The empire of safety became known as the Mechanical Hell, but was shortened to a simpler name: Mech. Can the rebellion free the struggling human race from the evils of their gigantic steel prison? Will they discover the secrets the Utopian government is hiding? Read on to find out.
