This is a game of two parts. In the first, you create a robot using a very well crafted graphical user interface that emulates the new 16 bit systems of the time well.The main part of the game is a more traditional maze style as you move the robot around a flip screen area that seems large, mainly due to the small play area and large graphical characters.
A nice touch is that you can set it to control itself, automatically avoiding hazards. As such, it is a simple game enhanced greatly by all the extra features.
