Understanding the Hospice Layout

The hospice is divided into several key areas. Each area serves a specific purpose and houses different robots. Familiarizing yourself with the layout will save you time and help you manage your daily tasks efficiently.

• Reception Area: Where you start each day. Check the bulletin board for tasks and resident updates.
• Common Room: A central space where robots gather. Interact here to learn about their personalities.
• Private Rooms: Each robot has a private room. This is where most story interactions and care tasks occur.
• Garden: A quiet outdoor area. Some robots prefer to spend time here.
• Supply Closet: Collect daily supplies like oil, spare parts, and cleaning tools.

Step-by-Step Daily Routine

Each day in Robot Hospice follows a loose structure. You are free to explore, but following a routine ensures you do not miss important events. Below is a recommended daily workflow.

1. Morning Check-In

   Start at the reception area. Read any new notes. Check the status of each robot on the board. This will tell you if any robot needs urgent care.

2. Visit Priority Robots

   Go to the private rooms of robots marked with high priority. These robots may be nearing their final moments. Spend time with them, listen to their stories, and fulfill their last wishes.

3. Perform Care Tasks

   Each robot has specific needs. Common tasks include cleaning, oiling joints, replacing batteries, and reading stories. Use the supplies from the closet. Incorrect care can lower their mood.

4. Explore and Interact

   After completing urgent tasks, explore the hospice. Talk to robots in the common room. Some events are triggered by being in the right place at the right time.

5. End of Day Reflection

   Before the day ends, return to the reception area. Some days will end automatically after key events. Make sure you have saved your progress.

Key Robots and Their Stories

The hospice is home to several memorable robots. Each has a distinct personality and backstory. Understanding their histories is crucial for providing the best care and unlocking different endings. Below are some of the key residents you will meet.

• Unit 07 (Nana): An older robot who once served as a nanny. She loves hearing children's stories. Her final wish is to hear a story from her old human family. You can find clues about her family in the library.
• Bolt: A former construction robot. He is stoic but appreciates small gestures. He wants to see the stars one last time. You can arrange a trip to the garden at night.
• Pip: A small companion robot. Pip is playful but low on energy. Pip needs new batteries and a clean chassis. Playing simple games with Pip raises its happiness significantly.
