If you don't like the robots, you can try to customize the game concept to your taste.
Primarily, the robots can be replaced by astronauts; in this case, they would change
parts of their space suits, not body parts of course. The tools and containers can be
the same that the robots used. Even a fantasy setting can be implemented; with a
fantasy component, all the game elements can be easily turned into another era and
place. For instance, the asteroid may be replaced by an island with some old trees
and the spaceship is now a knarr. Instead of robots, some elfs and gnomes fight for
magic crystals; the spares are replaced with chain armor, boots, helmets, shields, and
so forth.
