Robox

About

Robox is a 1986 adventure game for Commodore 64/128/MAX that lets you play as someone who wins a trip to a futuristic holiday planet. The story unfolds through text with high-resolution graphics by modern 8-bit standards. Players navigate puzzles and explore environments using typed commands, blending narrative and visuals to push the platform’s capabilities. The game stands out for its use of detailed graphics alongside text, a rarity in early adventures. Developed by Laro Schatzer and Marc Pilloud, it was published in a German software collection for the C64 scene. Its sci-fi setting and technical polish for the era make it a niche pick for retro fans who appreciate experimental design in vintage computing.
