Archeodroid

Archeodroid is a video game in the strategy genre developed by Emerald Valley Publishing Co. and published by Emerald Valley Publishing Co. originally released in 1985. It is currently playable on DOS, Commodore 64.

For the humans of the distant future, the forgotten planet Earth is nothing more than an old fairy tale. Until one lucky explorer stumbles upon the lost blue sphere... But will signs of the ancient occupation be found? It's time to bring out your three trusted Archeodroids, excavation robots programmed to recover archeological evidence. Their job? - To rummage through Earth's trash and recover the remains that hold the key to humanity's past: human skeletons, car wrecks, and piles of junk.

Points are earned by bringing unearthed artifacts back to the ship; each droid is equipped with ten energy charges, allowing it to move around and make its way through the dirt. The problem is that an uncharged droid quickly self-destructs unless it recharges on the ship; also, cave-ins can block tunnels and even destroy the poor droid. The remains of a deceased droid (and its collected artifacts) can be picked up by its successor. Your goal is to carefully plan your excavations, avoid getting trapped, and receive maximum points for your finds.
