About this game

Robot Relay is a free network strategy game for kids ages 9-12. Nine robot stations sit on a small map, linked by glowing connections. You command the blue network, a red rival AI runs the other side, and each station you hold builds one more bot every second.

Tap a station or drag along a link to relay half its bots to a neighbour. Factories build bots faster, relays speed deliveries, and shield stations are tougher to take, so specialised stations shape your plan. An AI button lets you step the opponent up from easy to hard.

Like every Baboo game it runs in the browser on tablet, phone or computer with no ads, no accounts and nothing to install. Short rounds and a New map button make it easy to replay - a good pick for kids who enjoy logical, systems-style strategy.

How to play

  1. Choose a blue station that holds at least two bots.
  2. Tap a linked station, or drag toward it, to send half your bots down the connection.
  3. Arrive with more bots than the defenders and the station joins your network.
  4. Use factories to build up numbers and relays to move bots faster.
  5. Connect all nine stations to win, then raise the AI difficulty for a rematch.
