Robots (GameCube)

Robots thrusts players into the role of Rodney Copperbottom, the hero of Twentieth Century Fox's 2005 CG animated feature film, as he sets off on thrilling adventures through the living worlds of the movie. The game incorporates movie assets -- including character, graphic and animation assets -- to produce a distinctive impression of playing in the film's universe. The Robots' world is about to be taken over by an evil tyrant and it is up to the player to save his fellow robots from a tragic destiny. Players hop on a train to a mechanical metropolis of moving gears and winding parts, meet an unforgettable cast of characters and battle evil machines -- discovering the many ways a robot can turn his parts into cool and unique gadgets.

Critic Reviews

60 Times Online
Well-meaning if not masterful, this is clearly a game for children rather than older players.
60 TotalGames.net
The levels are well designed with bright, colourful graphics throughout, making the game seem almost like the film, and with so many personalities to talk to there's never a dull moment.
58 Nintendo Power
With clever puzzles, lots of fun gizmos and in-game artwork that looks almost as good as between-level movie clips, the game represents the film well and provides an entertaining play experience. [Apr 2005, p.100]

The sad fact is that Robots tries to draw you into a terrible game by way of a pretty package.
