Cortex Command vs Robotex

In a distant future, humanity has amputated its bodies, leaving only brains that remotely pilot machines. As the brain of a fledgling gold‑mining company, you switch between expendable bodies, harvest resources, and build an army while staying safe in your bunker. The fully destructible terrain, programmable AI puppets, and split‑screen co‑op let you explore, fight, and out‑smart rivals on an alien planet, all delivered via the orbital TradeStar marketplace.

Humanity's last hope lies on a hostile planet teeming with monstrous life. You are sent on an expedition to eradicate the threats, only to discover that your actions paint you as the true villain. Robotex blends adventure, indie charm, and intense action with simple controls, challenging puzzles, and a wide arsenal of guns. Experience a single‑player story that forces you to question who the real monster is.
