Grobots is a real-time strategy programming game, in which programs (in a dialect of Forth) control teams of robots as they forage, reproduce and fight. It runs on Mac OS X, Windows, and (without graphics) Linux.

User Reviews

  • The most complete programming game I've played. You have to balance between resource gathering, combat, and territorial control, lending a wonderful level of complexity to the programmer. Better documentation and/or a side editor might make the barrier to entry a bit lower, though. More games like this, please!
  • Best programming game I've played.
  • This is a very neat project. I spend maybe a couple hours a week tinkering with my bots and examining others. It has good promise for extensibility and porting, and I for one will be watching it for the foreseeable future.
