Robots have always looked good in games and they always will. Leveraging on this unquestionable truth, LemonQuest has recently unveiled the release
of "Robot Battle Tactics", one of the latest robot-themed games announced to hit the mobile market.

In the words of LemonQuest, Robot Battle Tactics is a SRPG (strategy role-playing game) that carries players into a biochemical conflict from the future. You control one or more robots and fight with enemy units, which are also robots, using different tactics and weapons. The game features nice graphics and wisely chosen colors, puzzle-like elements, lots of robots to fight with and various sceneries set to be both captivating and fun. After advancing in the game, your robot will gain more points and energy, hence becoming a tougher and more difficult do defeat adversary for the other robots. A notable fact about Robot Battle Tactics is that it apparently requires more precision and good reflexes (from players) than any other mobile game.

Seeing several of Robot Battle Tactics' screenshots, I noticed some graphic resemblances to Blizzard's StarCraft. But this is not at all a bad thing, since the legendary RTS title is one of the best when it comes to in-game robots and futuristic environments.

Robot Battle Tactics doesn't seem to be available for the moment, but it will be pretty soon, coming with compatibility for lots of mobile phones from about all the important handset manufacturers: Nokia, Motorola, Samsung, Sony Ericsson, LG, Siemens, Panasonic, Alcatel, Sagem and so on.

Headquarted in Madrid, Spain, LemonQuest has brought to light a wide range of mobile titles, including Furby Island (the IMGA 2008 winner of the "Best IP-based licensed game" title), Europa Universalis, Monster Jam, King of the Hill, 1942 Air Combat, Guess Who 3D, Cyberpunk: Arasaka's Plot, and a Ronaldinho puzzle series.

Robot Battle Tactics will surely appeal to RPG fans that like to play on their handsets, so we're waiting for more details about its availability.

This game was pretty good, I recently finished it with both endings

I can't think of everything, SO I'll list the good and bad from the top of my head.

Good qualities are;
- Good clean graphics
- Interesting and catching robot design
- Well designed levels
- Game is fun to play

How ever some Bad qualities are;
-Dialog is poorly written as if it was translated poorly or written by a 8yr old girl.
-Game forces the player to replay some levels to earn extra XP which is limited and forces the player to focus upgrades on a single robot to survive to the missions
-Robots dont get XP individually, VIA missions completed in and Number of kills
-Robots dont have ANY hardware upgrades
- Cannot change your robot
- No new robot classes unlocked in the game
- Group attack is useless
- laggy or "chunky" menus force you to wait for the menu animation to finish before selecting something else
- When purchasing a robot, you dont know what its abilities or restrictions are until your in combat
- Limited Audio, would like to hear some sound effects even if its just the attacks
- annoying camera shake when a unit stops moving, Good idea it just shakes to damn much.


- Dissapointing ending, you feel like you'd expect more from the game.


Overall its a nice game, but could of been way better, If you like mech games this would be a must buy for you mobile phone.
