I could never get the robots game. I couldn’t even pick up one set of batteries. Then I realized that you don’t need to put an arrow on each square in its path. You only have to put arrows where you want it to change directions.

Even then I had problems because it seemed to move so fast. So I started the robots game and as soon as it started I hit my Print Screen button. Then I would pause the game and pasted the screen print into a Word document and printed it. I then planned out the route and drew arrows on the picture where the robot would have to turn. You can take all the time you want and get the right sequence of turns. Then with this picture I could resume the game and lay down the arrows.

You still have to move fast and you can’t lay them down too far in advance because they will fade and disappear. I did this process of taking a picture with two of the different robot game layouts then I didn’t need to do it anymore. Once I could see how the game worked in a still picture I could understand the strategy of how it works and I wasn’t intimidated anymore.

It also helps to laugh. If a robot would blow up I would just say, “Oops little guy, sorry about that” and giggle. I still giggle when I play the game now and one of the little guys smacks the wall.

It really does take practice to master this game but if I can do it anyone can. I am in my 60’s, so even old dogs can learn new tricks. Don’t give up.

wow, ty 4 your response. that all sounds complicated, but i am glad it worked for u. not sure if i want to go through all that

Yeah, I can be a bit obsessive sometimes. But I just love puzzles and I kind of needed the help of the screen shot to help me get a boost with playing this game. Once I got it, it was just like riding a bicycle. I can go back and play with the robots with no problem now.

Good luck and I hope you enjoy the game.

I still can't get the robot. I have all the time in the game but it runs out with this robot. HOw do you slow it down?

Don't want to play a game that seems too much like work! The robots will not cooperate with me. If there was a 'skip' button I would. As it is, I stop playing at the robots.

Hang in there with the Robots. I hated them. Thought I would never get by them. Then I realized that you don't have to click on each sqaure, just the direction you want the robot to go. Remember to click on the actual square that the set of batteries are sitting on and change that arrow to make the next move in whatever direction you want it to head towards. You can click on a couple of moves ahead, but not too far ahead because you only have so much time and the square will start to blink. Mainly you just have to keep your cool and not overthink it. As soon as the game starts head towards your first set of batteries, click on the batteries and change the direction on it.....then you may need to click on the square right next to it to change it's direction again right away so it doesn't hit the wall......just keep heading towards a set of batteries and remember to change your direction for the following move on the batteries it's self. It's not hard. If I can get it, I know you can!
