What is Ricochet Robot

Ricochet Robots is less of a game and more of a puzzle, which explains why there's such an odd number of solutions possible. There's a four-piece modular board that forms a large room with walls spread around the board. There are also color-coded targets on boards. Placed on top of the surface are four robots. The idea for each turn/puzzle is to get the like-colored robot to a randomly selected target. The trick is that once a robot starts moving, it will continue to move until a wall or another robot stops it. Therefore, players are seeking a sequence of moves for the robots that will enable them to move the required robot to the target in the fewest moves.

Un gran abstracto. Mucha visión espacial no apto para todos los públicos.

Juego tipo puzzle o pasatiempo en la que no hay limite de jugadores y se juega en tiempo real dotandole al juego de un buen ritmo ademas de que el problema que plantea es un interesante aliciente para tenerte enganchado. Se me de fatal pero es lo que hay.

Rayada brutal de juego frie cerebros a muerte!!! Encuentra el camino y apuesta por el menor número de movimientos, para que el robot se sitúe en la pieza de su color. Multitud de minivariates y reglas caseras, y versatilidad para elegir tiempo de juego, como se gana, etc.
