Your Uncle Randy, an avid computer collector, has passed away. Your Aunt Doris sends you the computer he was working on when he died, telling you that he would have liked someone to finish the job he started.

* AllThereInTheManual: Aside from the background story and assembly language specification, the manual also contains hints on how to find the hidden puzzle.
* ApocalypticLog: The story is told through increasingly disturbing notes left by Randy inside the broken modules.
* HellGate: The TIS-100s are implied to [[spoiler:open up a portal to another universe, letting an unspecified alien menace in.]]
