Robbo

Robbo is a popular arcade and logic game created by programmers from the Polish company xLand (later Chaos Works), telling about the adventures of the title robot, trapped on a foreign planet in a network of complicated labyrinths.

The program offers ninety boards (fifteen worlds consisting of four stages each), in which our task is to collect all the screws necessary to repair the spacecraft. However, it is not that simple, because labyrinths are inhabited by different creatures, waiting for the life of our wards. Robbo is equipped with a limited ammunition pistol that can not only annihilate enemies, but also destroy some passages and detonate bombs scattered here and there. The crossing is also made difficult by lockable chambers and numerous boxes that can be moved in the desired direction. In the latter case, be careful not to accidentally block the only road available.

From the first stages you can see that the authors of the game put a lot of emphasis on logical elements. The level of difficulty is rising at an unimaginable rate and forces users to develop a specific plan before every move is made. Robbo offers pleasant, colorful graphics in low resolution and decent sound. The game contains a large number of spoken samples that comment on all the player's actions (e.g. getting screws, gun batteries, etc.).
