Basically Robot Arena (you construct a robot) but instead of a fighting robot you make a robot which would climb over some obstacle, e.g.Basically Robot Arena (you construct a robot) but instead of a fighting robot you make a robot which would climb over some obstacle, e.g. stairs, a wall, a narrow passage etc.
Pros:
- a unique idea (though arguably it's still much more fun to fight with robots in Robot Arena than just climb over obstacles here, unless you really are into non-violent games)
- interesting story
So-so:
- the puzzles are varied but solving them didn't feel satisfying. Most often I'd just either randomly stumble on a solution, or iterate on a supposedly incorrect solution until it would (clumsily) still perform the task. The whole puzzle is physics-based, so even with a wrong vehicle you can sometimes reach the goal. It would be great if the game had an option to show the solution which the author had in mind, e.g. after the level is solved.
Bad:
- there are some annoying useless animations which slow the game down, e.g. the character needs to step on a plate, then "covert" into a robot (long animation), then you can build the robot. In fact, the whole running thing with picking up the story pieces feels somewhat out of place since it's just a puzzle game with robots. The running part should have had more gameplay (not just running), or maybe it should have been taken out altogether. The story could just be told in briefings before/after puzzles or whatever.
A unique physics-based puzzle where you construct robots to climb over obstacles. You will like it if you enjoy physics-based puzzles and like to construct/engineer mechanisms.… Expand
