Tetrobot & Co.

Difficulty : 3/5 (Rather Hard)
Global : 3.5/5 (Very Good)

Another underrated and forgotten puzzle game.
In Tetrobot and Co., you are a mini robot called psychobot that goes inside broken robots to fix them.

The gameplay is simple, psychobot can go anywhere and take blocks (as long as they have vision of them) anywhere in a line in front or behind them. They can then store them (up to 6) and throw them in a straight line. Each block has its own properties and blocks of the same type can be glued together.

Each broken robot brings its own mechanics and blocks, adding a lot of variety to the puzzles. The levels are separated into several small puzzles that are often tied to each other, the goal is to reach the portal at the end with the 3 memory blocks. These memory blocks are the real challenge, they are either hidden or locked behind harder puzzles that require you to carefully manage you resources.
The level design is very clever and puzzles are challenging, this is not an easy game and you can really feel the efforts and love put into it. You have to be ingenious and methodical, the game has no tutorial and you have to figure out everything by yourself. Fortunately, the rewind button is there so you can test whatever you want. This game is perfect for people who like hard but not so hard games.

Tetrobot and Co. is really a lot of fun and I highly recommend it.
