About

Robots Rick

Features
Read full description

rR is a game / puzzle. The idea for each trick / puzzle is to get the robot of the same color to a randomly chosen target. The trick is that once a robot starts moving, it will keep moving until a wall or other robot stops it. Therefore, you need to look for a sequence of movements for the robots that will allow them to move the required robot towards the target with minimum movements.
