What players say

Players are split on Robot Heroes. Some enjoy its unique mechanic of firing robots as both ammo and lives from a fixed cannon, praising the challenging boss fights. Others criticize the repetitive button mashing, reliance on luck due to random enemy patterns, and frequent instant deaths from hitting spikes or your own shots.
