Product Description
In Robots you'll live the adventures of a genius robot named Rodney Copperbottom as he moves to the big city and becomes a hero. With a little help from his friends, he'll overcome an evil plan and make his wildest dreams come true.
Amazon.com
The Robots tie-in video game turns its intrepid hero, Rodney Copperbottom, into a rock-'em, sock-'em action star. Roughly following the movie plot, Rodney is a young inventor who moves to the big city in pursuit of an inventing job with the famous inventor Bigweld. He's rebuffed, and discovers a plot to get rid of the older robots, called "outmodes." As Rodney, the single player gathers bolts and blueprints for his inventions, including Wonderbot, and fights unfriendly robots by clubbing them with his wrench or blasting them with scrap metal. Collecting the blueprints and other items are usually the key to finishing a level, and sometimes you just have to try any random action to find them (you're strongly recommended to upgrade to the object finder). Occasionally you'll run into other characters like Lug, Cappy, Tupper, and Aunt Fanny, but it's Rodney's show, constantly accompanied and occasionally assisted by Wonderbot. There's also a dizzying arcade-like race in the transport pod (the DVD includes a one- to four-player head-to-head race version). The game feels a lot like Wallace and Gromit in Project Zoo. Both games offer a marvelous 3-D environment with a real sense of height and space, collecting bolts for inventions is a central goal, and both overrely on timed jumping, which can be a problem when the camera perspective shifts. (The camera angle in Robots is a little easier to control, however.) The sound-alike voice actors are solid, and you can unlock video clips and other bonuses. All in all, it's a fairly safe and fun game for kids to play or watch, and if one of your measuring sticks of a game is not being able to beat it in a day or two, Robots is long enough to offer a good deal of playing time. --David Horiuchi Pros: - Three-dimensional world that allows you to fly, jump, fall, etc.
- Looks great
- Fun for kids
Cons - At some point you'll probably get stuck, either in a puzzle or looking for objects
- Too much timed jumping
- Only three save-game slots, and some long stretches without save opportunities

 Poor gameplay January 8, 2006
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I'm having trouble at the very beginning of the game, and I've solved some hard games. This certainly is not going to be fun for my son.
Also, the gameplay is terrible. The camera angles are very limited. You can't even look up. The left-right movement is twitchy, it makes it hard to do a double-jump straight ahead.

I thought i thought it was cool until i fell off a cliff. Then i started crying but my mommy told me it was only a game. The i went to my room and threw up.
Fun, But Fairly Long July 17, 2005

This game rocks, but seems quite long. I have played this game alot and STILL haven't gotten through it, yet.I've gotten past let's say, oh, probably seven or eight levels.For example, The Spongebob Squarepants Movie has 18 levels {WOW!}Robots is unguessable.This game is pretty long so if you rented it and have to return it today, don't whine, just rent it AGAIN!!!!!!!!!
This game is a 10 out of 10. You only get to play as Rodney, though.There are upgrades that you can buy in vending machines.{Here's a hint - they pop up out of the ground and are yellow and black.Just press Y when you get close enough.}The first level a baby can get past.It's easy, the second level is LONG,the third is fun,and so on.As I said earlier, this game is a 10 out of 10.
Great game! April 12, 2005

My son is 6 and it is sometimes difficult to find games that are fun, challenging and at the same time easy enough for him to play himself. This game is not only fun for both of us, but it's challenging in a way that is not too hard for him nor too easy for me. We enjoy playing together and helping each other through the levels. Graphics and controls are great. The game is creative with fun "extras" to find that will make you laugh. My favorite part is the text boxes. My son doesn't have to call me into the room every 5 minutes to read the text for him because the game reads it outloud for him! Great feature!! We loved the movie and will enjoy the game for months to come!
