Basic
To clear the level, get the robot to the goal across the playing field.
The robot moves by itself in the direction shown at the bottom center corner of the screen.
The robot has a limited amount of energy to move. Get it to the goal before it loses power.
Select and drag the turn tokens to have the robot change direction.
Level navigation
The tokens are the only way to make the robot change direction.
You only have a limited number of them to use.
You don’t need to use all of them to clear the level.
Ideally, you should choose the path that saves you the most energy.
Note that energy is spent from crossing one tile to another. Changing direction is done while stopped, thus doesn’t use up energy.
Do not let the robot crash into walls.
