Tiny Robots Recharged

Edit 2023:…..I really enjoyed playing this game, but as of Aug 2023, there have been no new levels since, at least that I know of, Feb. 2022. So, I guess it’s time to delete this app. It was nice while it lasted. I love that they give so many free batteries that you can use as clues, if they are needed. I completed the game with over 384 batteries left. I’ve seen ppl state that because of the timer, they can’t appreciate all the work that goes into each level. I guess they are unaware that they can replay each & every level as many times as they choose to admire the work without losing any of their batteries.

I bought the full version pretty quickly after the first couple of ads and it’s worth the money. There are a lot of levels. The puzzles skew easy which suits me fine for what it is: a casual point and click that passes the time. I don’t like the timer aspect of it. Even when you pay, the energy goes out and you have to refill it (for free) and continue. So I’m constantly looking for batteries to prevent this. I also don’t like that they encourage you to finish as quickly as possible by giving stars based on your time. If I don’t get three stars the first time, I get no pleasure retracing my exact steps faster to satisfy some arbitrary reward. It took a while for me to clue in that getting three stars on every level gives no benefit. In short, the reward mechanism seems tailored toward people who DON’T pay vs. those that do.

I love this game so far. The ads are to be expected, and they aren’t very clustering if you really focus on the game, not the ads. The attention to detail is beautiful, and if you like fast-paced puzzles, using your sharp skills, and being perceptive, you will love this game. Or, if you just like tapping things and randomly throwing two-and-two together to make four, then you will also like this game! The battery timer isn’t something you really need to worry about. Just look around, observe the area, and you’ll find them. They’re not very well hidden. Use this to your advantage! As for the puzzles, they are easy. You just have to experiment a little, then you will figure out exactly what you need to do. Have fun!
