The first thing you'll notice about the game is that it has a very bright, colorful, and cartoonish visual style. Authored by SpongeBob screenwriter Jay Lender and his writing partner Micah Wright, the team's keen sense of humor is immediately evident. The cause of the Robocalypse is the coporation Thermodoom, which manufactures friendly household appliances as well as military robots. After a mix up at the factory, the helpful appliance AI is inserted into the aggressive androids, resulting in very polite hunter-killer machines. They are led by a massive, red robot called The Demolisher.

The Robocalypse Demolisher, an evil robot bent on world domination, will invade the iPhone and iPod Touch world too...
Robocalypse is easily one of the best portable strategy games out there. It's fun, has a nice sense of humor, and the simplified control scheme works well overall. If you can find friends with the game, you can battle in four-player action fests. Overall, this is an excellent example of small-screen strategy.

Robocalypse has you at the controls of your own robot army with a great storyline that adds enough to the game but does not add so much that it gets boring or even annoying. You are the commander of an army but like in real life you do not order around individuals but order squads and a few individuals with special abilities like commanders."
