This was my favorite game ever as a kid. It was probably the game that introduced me to gaming. I remember I'd always try to build junkbot and levels and stuff in actual lego
Junkbot is a game where you play as an orange "junkbot" which has an addiction to eating trash. He is hired by a factory to clean all the trash, and you have to guide junkbot over hazards and around dangerous things to lead him to the trash.
There's a crapload of things that you need to progress through levels in junkbot:
- Colored Brick- What you move to get Junkbot to the can.
- Jump Brick- Small gray and blue springs that make Junkbot jump.
- Movable Jump Brick- Like an ordinary jump brick, but is yellow (instead of gray), and can be moved like a colored brick.
- Shield Brick- Blue box that will make Junkbot invincible to the next enemy/hazard that touches him. However, it will wear off after touching that enemy/hazard. Note that shield bricks can only be used once!
- Fan Brick- A fan that will send Junkbot up high.
- Switch- Buttons that will switch fans or fire bricks on/off. However, some switches do nothing.
There's also hazards:
- Fire Brick- Too hot for Junkbot! Will burn up Junkbot.
- Drip- Pipes that will drip water that can short-circuit Junkbot.
And enemies:
- Gearbot- These robots can only move horizontally on a flat surface. They will move back when they hit a wall.
- Climbot- These robots can move in any direction and can climb over short structures. However, they can't float over tall structures (though they will climb staircases).
- Flybot- These robots will fly in a straight direction. If they hit a surface they will move back.
- Eyebot- These flying robots are similar to Flybots, but will chase Junkbot if they see him.
