Escape from the Planet of the Robot Monsters (set 1) — About this game
Escape from the Planet of the Robot Monsters (set 1) sets its rescue inside an isometric industrial maze. Hostages wait along routes guarded by robots, and levers activate escalators that open the way to another area. Gems strengthen the ray gun, while food lockers provide a reason to inspect the surroundings when health is low. The arcade’s analog movement also allows finer aiming directions than a simple eight-way stick. Finding the next lever and rescue route matters as much as shooting through the nearest group of robots.
