Yes I've played the game, but I haven't played Paradroid. I'll adjust
The description accordingly.

  Have you played this game?

  freedroidRPG is *NOT* a clone of Paradroid.  freedroid (no RPG) is a
very nice clone of Paradroid, but development on that project has been
abandoned (for a year or so) in favor of a lame Diablo rip-off
confusingly named freedroidRPG.

  Description : a clone of the classic game "Paradroid" on the Commodore 64

A game inpired by Andrew Braybrook's classic Paradroid on
the good old Commodore C64 and Blizzards' Classics Diablo I/II.

In this game, you control a robot, depicted by a small white ball with
a few numbers within an interstellar spaceship consisting of several
decks connected by elevators. 

The aim of the game is to destroy all enemy robots, depicted by small
black balls with a few numbers, by either shooting them or seizing
control over them by creating connections in a short subgame of
electric circuits.
