In First Class Trouble you take on the role of one of the last remaining survivors on a luxury spaceship that has experienced some severe technical difficulties. Chief of these problems is that the AI and on-board robotic servants have rebelled and decided to kill every human onboard. They wiped out most of the passengers by simply turning the air off, but a lucky few with Oxygen Rebreathers survived.
The band of surviving players must now work together to try and reset the AI to revert it to a non-homicidal state, but it’s not going to be easy. The ship is full of robot servants that are more focused on serving pain than beverages and some of the survivors are robots in disguise. Cooperation is key to success, but trust will be in short supply as players attempt to figure out who the robots in their ranks are.
