Love can make people commit mistakes, follies and do many other silly things. Would anybody in his right mind risk his life, move under the rays of laser guns, break legs in the stone conglomerations, carry dreadful bombs and wander into fatal mazes? Love is a virus; and there are no walls which can stop it. Even robots can’t resist it. You can now become a participant in this unusual love story. Try to add some logic and consistency in the bustle of this hot cybernetic passion and overcome, together with Robo, all manner of obstacles such as walking through snow storms, scorched deserts and cold mountains. Usually only human intellect could rescue machines that are going this mad!
So Robo has to save Eny, who is kidnapped by the evil Discharger, and now held in the underground compound which is protected by lasers. In order to move, our hero has to block laser beams that guard all passageways or destroy laser cannons. This objective can be reached by moving stones to block laser beams, using bombs to explode laser cannons or even, for the gaming Einsteins, making cannons destroy each other. The game rules are very simple, but the game itself is not, because bombs and stones are very scarce.
Are you ready to test your brains in this cyber situation and conquer the path to true love?

I don't want to stop playing a game because I got tired of it but because I finished it... Robo has a well deserved place in the Top 5 list in its genre and it's very easy to appreciate the thought and care that was put into the game.
The graphics of the game are great and there are lots of little cool graphical touches, like the way you get to see Robo's reflection any time he's close to a mirror or the short circuiting of a laser cannon just before it explodes.

Robo doesn’t really break any new ground. What it does do, however, is take a familiar concept, throw it in a new environment, and make it fun. For die hard puzzle fans there will be plenty of challenge in the later levels, and for the casual gamer, the concept is simple enough that you’ll probably get hooked before you realize how difficult it’s gotten. Add on top of that some slick visuals and a decent soundtrack, and you’ve got one puzzle game that you shouldn’t pass by.
