About I, Robot

Jeff Minter is back with another unique take on a 1980s Atari arcade game: I, Robot. Reimagined in Minter’s signature assault of colors, shapes, and sounds, this new take on the eclectic arcade title is built from the ground up with new challenges, new twists, and a whole lot of llamas.

The premise of I, Robot is simple: You take control of an ox-headed robot on a mission to outwit the all-seeing eye. In each level, you’ll navigate across tiles, flipping each tile to proceed to the next. Make sure you don’t jump while the eye is watching, or you’ll be zapped away in a flash. If you make it across the tiles, you’ll race down a tube blasting away any enemy shapes that move into your path and try to stop you. And you have to do all this inside the 3D space of Minter’s kaleidoscopic visualizer.

At its core, it is a game that only Lamasoft could have made. A cacophony of colors dazzles your eyes as the music gradually builds up based on your progress. If you want to take a break from the arcade action, jump into the game, where you can channel your inner Jeff Minter and play around with all the sights and sounds from the game.
