The WhatsNext verdict

If you enjoy methodical, no-time-pressure logic puzzles where interlocking block rules reward experimentation, Tetrobot and Co. delivers a calming brain workout, but it suits players willing to tolerate opaque late-game challenges and a thin, distracting story layer.

What it does best

  • Puzzles built from elegant, interlocking material rules

  • A soothing brain workout you can settle into

What might put you off

  • Later puzzles can become opaque and demanding

  • The story and Faceblox layer feel unnecessary

The setup

What you are walking into

Tetrobot is the world's most popular and reliable robot, but he's not perfect. That's why I, Maya, have built him a microscopic little brother, Psychobot. Help me guide Psy through Tetrobot's cogs and circuits: by swallowing blocks of matter and spitting them out, we can repair anything. Learn how pipes, lasers, fans and other electronic devices work, learn how to alter the chemical properties of slime, and collect all the memory blocks that you find on the way. The owners of damaged Tetrobots all around the world rely on us because we are the only people who can repair their precious robots.
