Can you defeat the swarm of killer robots in this old school arcade classic? Absolutely, dive into the high-intensity action of "Robots On" and test your skills against a relentless robotic onslaught. This fast-paced, retro arcade game challenges you to keep moving and keep blasting to survive the waves of attacking robots.
Experience the thrill of classic arcade gaming with the option to play in flat 2D mode, just like the original games, or enhance your view by tapping the camera icon. This feature lets you zoom in on the action and switch between several different camera angles, including first and third-person modes, for a more immersive experience.
Despite running on the latest Artificial Intelligence (AI 2.0a), these robots are still no match for human ingenuity. Assuming you're human, of course—apologies if you're something else! You'll get a crucial two-second head start while the robots power up, so use this time wisely to take down the most formidable foes first.
The action is non-stop and you're vastly outnumbered by the collective evil of the killer robots. To advance to the next level, you must destroy all robots except the indestructible Grunt bots. Don't forget to collect the specials and power-ups scattered throughout the game:
- Star: Auto-aim on, temporarily targeting the most dangerous robots.
- Diamond: Shields for added protection.
- Cherry: Big points to boost your score.
- Heart: Bonus life to extend your gameplay.
- Lightning: Freezes robots until they recharge, giving you a strategic advantage.
You start with 5 lives, with the opportunity to earn bonus lives initially every 5,000 points, and later every 10,000 points. Here's a quick rundown on the robots you'll encounter:
- Reds: Common worker bots that shoot lasers from their eyes.
- Greens: Grunt bots, heavy and indestructible, so it's best to avoid them.
- Brain Bots: Shoot homing missiles, making them particularly deadly.
- Torus Bull Bots: Replication bots that create other deadly robots.
- Cake Bots: Fly straight at you, so keep moving to dodge them.
- Cube Bots: Faster replication robots that produce deadly cash registers.
- Cash Registers: Another deadly android that shoots bouncing electric balls.
- Dumb Blocks: Harmless unless you run into them.
To fire, simply tap on the board or on a robot to shoot in that direction. Tap off the board to fire straight ahead, and hold your finger down for rapid fire. That's it! It's easy—download "Robots On" now and join the fight to prevent the killer robots from overwhelming the human race.
