Robot Commander

Getting started...

Enable the skill at this link.
Then say... "Alexa, open Robot Commander"

The Game

You are the Robot Commander. Take charge and save your fleet!

100 Robots are depending on you! Dr. Snot Bomb has trapped them in a maze of dangers.

Sure, they are not smart. Sure, they have no feelings. But, you'd rather have more of them than not! Right!?

As Robot Commander - get your robots to freedom through the traps your nemesis Dr. Snot Bomb created. There is only one path through the maze, and only your memory to serve you. Its a grid-based game where the field is 10 squares wide, and each level gets deeper and more treacherous.

One wrong turn, boom... another robot bites the dust.

Lucky you have 100 of them, and they can make tools.

To start, just say "Alexa, launch Robot Commander" or "Alexa, open Robot Commander".

At anytime, you can stop by saying "Alexa, stop".

Guide your robots by saying "go left", "go right", or "go forward". The robots are very simple, so they can't go backward.

Tools

Tools are created by your robots. When you leave the game, they work around the clock to make equipment.

Tools save lives.

The next time you start, check your inventory.

If you have a tool, use it by saying "use tool on the left", "use tool on the right", or "use tool to the front". To see what tools you have say, "inventory"!

Conclusion

Restart the game by saying "restart" or "new game".

Good luck Commander - the fleet is depending one you!

There is a secret skill... "Are you Dr. Snot Bomb?"
