Take twelve scientists, Clone them fifty times, Distribute them on fifty planets, Set them to work. Result: THE GENESIS PROJECT. For years the scientists tolled to produce products and medicines that are now taken for granted. Then one by one the planets were overrun by MECHANAUTS and the scientists forced into slavery.

Now the Mechanauts themselves are at war. Their armies are away, the occupied planets barely defended. NOW IS YOUR CHANCE!

Rescue all of the scientists from the planets. Some of the scientists may bring their latest project with them to aid you in your mission. FO NOW! It's time to RETURN TO GENESIS!
