I really, really want to like this game. The premise is very cool - a simple robot avatar that learns. Nope, it don't.

The game provides you with cool 3-d high tech mazes that your little six legged robot must traverse. The idea is that as your robot fails, it learns, making it easier for it to take a better course the next time after it revives.

Unfortunately the little guy dies and dies and dies. When it revives it is not noticeably smarter than it was before. It still falls on you, oh godlike gamer, to maneuver it through the perils of the maze.

After a while all this dying gets too boring. I have even tried setting this game aside and coming back to it - several times. Even after months (and years) of rest in between, I can't find the stamina to get far with this game.

But the weird thing is I won't throw it away. I'm still planning on giving it one more try. A few years from now....
