The Story

The Game

Your goal is to guide the given amount of robots to their home nest. You can accomplish this by giving the robots commands to dig or pile blocks of land land. From time to time some blocks are falling from the sky. If a robot is very angry or stuck, it will be destroyed. Their only way to protect from the smash of a falling block is to carry a block of land.


The three tribes of the robots.

You can please the robots by giving them commands. A completed task will raise their mood. When you command one robot of certain tribe, the other tribes will get more angry. Also if you dig a block of land from other tribe's land, they will get mad.


The User Interface

Task Meter

The number of these bulbs shows how many commands you can give to certain tribe at one time. Each lit bulb means an ordered command which is being done.

Tribe Mood Meter

These meters measures the mood of the tribe. Depending on your actions the meters will go up or down. If the robots are very sad, they will take to control of their own, and start stealing the land blocks from other robots and digging land randomly.

You can select the active tribe by pressing one of these meters.

Undo Button

Task Flag
