Unique concept combining planning and first-person shooter mechanics, which some players found engaging and innovative.
Interesting strategic gameplay that involves planning your route and managing resources like ammo and battery.
Game is free to play, which lowers the barrier to trying it out despite its flaws.

Extremely limited content with only three short levels, leading to a lack of depth and replay value.
Poor graphics and visual presentation, including blurry textures and low-quality models, detracting from the game experience.
Numerous technical issues such as bad AI, unresponsive controls, poor optimization causing lag, broken tutorials, and awkward interface/navigation.

graphics
15 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
0% positive mentions, 80% neutral mentions, 20% negative mentions
The graphics are generally low quality, featuring low-poly models and blurry visuals that detract from the experience. Despite having several graphics settings, the differences are minimal and some options are broken, leading to performance issues. The environments are uninspired and lack variety, which, combined with poor visual fidelity, may deter many players.
- “In terms of visuals, this features fairly low quality low poly 3D graphics which will deter a lot of gamers, understandably.”
- “Despite maxing out the graphics, the game is very blurry. I'm not sure if it's because there's a heavy depth of field effect or the resolution is low as there's no graphic options besides the Unity general 'graphics quality' option before the game.”
- “Other than those few issues, the graphics are also quite lacking; environments are uninspired and blandly standard for a game about robots.”
gameplay
15 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
40% positive mentions, 40% neutral mentions, 20% negative mentions
The gameplay offers a unique and engaging mechanic centered around staying close to a robot companion and planning routes, which adds strategic depth. However, it can become stale and easy over time, with issues like slow AI responses, glitchy gun mechanics, and a lack of variety in levels and exploration. Overall, while the core gameplay is compelling, it is held back by technical flaws and limited content.
- “Everything I could want: a cheesy cinematic, good soundtrack, good and fairly original gameplay, and runs decently.”
- “The main mechanic in this game is to plan a route that you go through protecting a robot from enemies. The robot is recharging you in a little circle (you're a robot too) so you and it can get to the end.”
- “That means you have to go back another way, making the planning process much more compelling, and the "charge" mechanic for the bot you play as, Irn-E, allows players to step away from Bert for a short time. It is this time limit that forces the player to stick close to Bert at all times, which I think is great because it doesn't let the player move freely around the map with no worries after getting the payload to the end.”
- “It was extremely easy and lacked any semblance of quality gameplay.”
- “The gameplay is a mixed bag; the planning phase was cool and works well, but the maps offer no need for exploration, while the shooting part barely works.”
- “Gun mechanics are very glitchy, and enemies seem to take no damage unless they get hit in the head, which is a big problem.”
story
9 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
11% positive mentions, 56% neutral mentions, 33% negative mentions
The story is very basic and minimal, offering little backstory or emotional engagement. While some players find the narrative lackluster and the music uninspiring, the gameplay remains enjoyable despite the simplistic plot.
- “If the creators of Robros could add more story and aesthetic detail, then the game would be an outrageously good experience, but for now, we have what we have, and I and many others love this game anyway.”
- “Also, the story is absolutely lackluster, and I'm quite a stickler for that.”
- “Sure, the intro and tutorial give a little backstory, but emphasis on little here.”
- “The "story" is very short, but the gameplay is pretty good.”
music
4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
75% positive mentions, -25% neutral mentions, 50% negative mentions
The music is simple yet effectively supports the futuristic atmosphere, featuring a cheesy cinematic and a good soundtrack. While it enhances the setting, it does not contribute significantly to storytelling or emotional engagement. Overall, it is well-received with a 4/5 rating.
- “Everything I could want: a cheesy cinematic, a good soundtrack, fairly original gameplay, and decent performance.”
- “The music in the game is very simple but effectively conveys the idea of a futuristic setting.”
- “Music: 4/5”
- “The music doesn’t help tell any story or create an emotional experience for the player.”
- “The music in the game is very simple, but helps convey the idea of a futuristic setting.”
optimization
4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
50% positive mentions, -25% neutral mentions, 75% negative mentions
The game suffers from poor optimization, running slowly even at low graphics settings and high resolution, especially in first-person mode. Improvements are needed to enhance performance and overall experience.
- “The game really needs to have more optimization in first person mode.”
- “It was a really cool concept but poorly optimized and really short.”
- “Not very optimized.”
- “The game runs slowly on the highest resolution even with the lowest graphics settings.”
- “The game really needs to have more optimization in first-person mode.”
stability
2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions
The game's stability is hindered by inconsistent aiming, slow sensitivity, and unreliable response times, resulting in erratic gameplay. Additionally, item pickups and AI behavior are buggy, affecting overall smoothness.
- “The guns aim weirdly, the sensitivity is too slow especially for turning, the response times and fire rate felt like they were hooked up to a random number generator, and item pickup was spotty and buggy like the AI.”
- “2 enemy types which are okay, but sometimes buggy.”
emotional
1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions
The emotional aspect is lacking, as the music fails to convey a compelling story or evoke a meaningful emotional experience for the player.
character development
1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions
Character development is criticized for generic designs and dialogue that feels robotic and lacks charm or engagement.
- “Character designs are very, very generic and dialogue feels robotic, but in a way that is not charming or fun at all.”
