Choose a zone for which you'd like to build the optimal robot. We suggest you start with one of the pre-set zones.
Study the hazards and obstacles in the zone to see what your robot will have to deal with. Now, construct a robot capable of collecting all the gold cubes without running out of energy or suffering too much damage. You should choose sensors to enable the robot to detect hazards and energy sources, a means of powering the robot, a form of mobility appropriate to the zone surface and finally, choose a construction material to minimise damage to the robot or make it more energy efficient.Click to find out more about sensors, POWER, MOBILITY and MATERIALS.
Try your robot in the Test Zone. If you haven't designed your robot with the right components, it may run out of energy, sustain too much damage or run out of time in which case you can return to the Robot Constructor to change the design and try again.
When you've mastered all of the pre-set zones, you can build new zones or edit existing ones from within the Zones screen. New zones can be saved to your own computer, or if you decide to publish your zone it could be made available for others around the world to download.
