So I've seen some people come up with the ideas of adding allies and if that ever happens I thought of this instead
So overtime you buy a clone you can go up and walk to the clone and tap it. The clone with activate and it will follow you to the elevator.
If you finish a round you won't get a point because you had already spent one on a robot.
If you don't like that idea. Maybe it could be you get a point and buy a clone and then do the process I mentioned before
