I suppose it can be categorized as an action puzzle game. The "story" can be summarized in the following two sentences (taken from the manual): "Sometime in the future, robots attempt to take over human settlements on various planets. Your goal is to infiltrate these settlements and destroy all of the robots." So it's up to you to find various items scattered throughout each settlement and use them along with objects like chairs and crates to figure out ways of destroying the malicious robots without getting yourself killed in the process.
David Murray did a fantastic job of using the text characters from the PET to create such cool looking environments. You can more or less tell what everything's meant to be from just a glance. While the later ports pretty up the graphics to various extents, the original PET version still can hold its own.
If you'd like to know more about it, you can check out David's channel on Youtube: The 8-Bit Guy. He put out a number of videos dedicated to the development of this game.
