Change the level of difficulty in Robots.

# Game type

You can play Robots in different ways by choosing a different game type. This changes the level of difficulty involved in playing Robots.

# To change the level of difficulty:

Select Settings Preferences Game .

From the drop down menu next to Game Type, choose your option.

Game Type | Initial safe teleports | Initial low-risk enemy robots | Initial high-risk enemy robots | Do safe teleports increase in successive levels?
--- | --- | --- | --- | ---
nightmare | 2 | 2 | 8 | Yes
robots with safe teleport | 0 | 10 | 0 | Yes, but only if robots are killed while waiting
robots2 | 1 | 8 | 2 | Yes, but only if robots are killed while waiting
robots2 easy | 3 | 8 | 2 | Yes
classic robots | 0 | 10 | 0 | No

If you check the Use safe moves checkbox, the game will prevent you from moving if the move would cause a robot to kill you, unless the only way to survive is to teleport. If you check the Use super safe moves checkbox, the game will prevent you from making any move in this case, so that you are forced to teleport. This reduces the level of difficulty. You can always uncheck these if you find the game too easy.
