Most people, at some point in their lives, have owed money. It may be college debt or payments on a car or maybe a couple bad bets with an unforgiving bookie, but we’ve all been there. Bob is no exception. After being busted out of jail by a raincoat-clad man, he is required to pay back the debt of freedom. Rather than starting a lemonade stand or something else more wholesome, he decides to rob others. Robbery Bob puts you in control of his latest crime spree to wipe out his debts.
The gameplay in Robbery Bob is heavily focused on stealth as you sneak into people’s houses and snag their valuables. Your controls rest on the lower hemisphere of the screen, with a directional pad on the left hand side and event controls on the right. You’ll use the right side on the occasions when you need to run away, need to hide, or have the ability to activate one of your “ninja” moves. The controls are pretty fluid for the most part, and aren’t intrusive in the least, which is helpful because you’ll want to see exactly where you are and where your potential captors are in comparison.
You’ll find yourself tip-toeing through your fair share of interesting levels. There are 50 in all, and while you’ll start stealing petty items from houses and apartments (is that broken vinyl record really worth anything? Might as well snag it just to be sure), you’ll eventually land in some very complex scientific-looking areas. The game elevates your crimes from the basic breaking and entering to possibly being guilty of grand larceny and potentially destruction of government property. It gets pretty off-the-wall by the end, and for a simple stealth game on a handheld platform, it gets pretty intense.
Maybe one of the few elements that pulls you out of the experience in the graphics. They aren’t unbearable, but they do look like someone took a sander to a bunch of pixels from the 90’s and just smoothed out their edges. There are a lot of elements on screen at a time at certain points, so perhaps there was a concern with having ramped up graphics in that regard, but it really doesn’t excuse the embarrassingly bad textures that make up some of the elements on screen. Grass, trees, and shrubbery look like they scanned drawings from kindergarteners and pasted them into the game.
Robbery Bob also does a decent job at attempting to have a sense of humor, though their execution sometimes left a bit to be desired. The conversations between the robber and the mastermind are pretty cheesy at times, and there are moments of cringeworthy dialogue. “I have some ninja tricks up my sleeves” comes to mind. There’s also some weird reoccurring plot points, like the mastermind’s divorce, that play a little too out there to come off as funny. It’s hard to hold this too accountable for any unpleasantries in gameplay, but it doesn’t make the in-between stuff that much fun.
As far as stealth titles go, Robbery Bob is a pretty enjoyable one. The levels are varied enough to keep things interesting and the difficult ramps up at a steady enough pace that you’ll never feel too out of your element or like one level is totally impossible compared to the last one. It’s good for delivering some moments of legitimate fear of being caught, and the sneaking around feels authentic and tense. The game works despite the elements working against it, including some outdated graphics and painful dialogue. Plus, it’s hard to sympathize with a main character that is a thief. That said, you don’t have to like the character to like the game, and Robbery Bob is pretty likable.
But remember, you are the thief so do too much running when there are people who are currently touring oversees a House because it will cause noise and you would be suspected and you must take all the treasure that exists by way of exposing yourself on these objects. Every place you visit for stolen, have different goals. For example, you have to steal the recipe from a House, beharga or objects in a museum, etc. In addition to the mission that you run, in almost every room of the House there are also other treasures that you can steal, marked with sparkle. Money bag sign on the top right of the screen will be fully charged when all the treasures in the place you've stolen. As I said above, there are officers or those who are at home on these around and you do not get caught by them or they'll call the police and you will be arrested.
After the end of a mission succeeds, there will be a skoring system that determines whether you are not detected by the people who are there at home, does the time you correspond with the given target and whether all the treasure you successfully steal. The third criterion is similar as the recognition system with 3 stars in other games. Interesting for you to notice, when frustration is already upon you because 1 could not complete certain missions, you can use the help feature. This feature will help you in to sneak through the shadows. You should do is stay abreast of gestures the shadow. It's a shame this feature only 1 time given, to get it back you have to purchase it through the IAP.
Checkpoint provided to places that are a little hard so that you may not be too frustrating memainnkannya when failing in the middle. Robbery Bob you can play in any position (lanscape and potrait) with a d-pad that you can set fixed or were floated. Unfortunately the rest of the game, the graphics are displayed is not so good. There are several object still look low resolution such as shrubs and grasses. There is still a little too visual bug, for example, when Bob stood at the edge of the wall, his head often penetrate the side of the wall. Folder on each level also having problems when the device is used with a potrait position. Folder can not slide left and right and the ends you just get to see the whole landscape position when using the.
Robbery, Bob is a game for fun and not teach you how to be a thief. More than that, this game could give the element its own tensions and bring the players dissolve in it.
