User guide

After selecting the game mode you will be shown a screen that states the name and object of the level.

Throughout the level you will find and acquire various tools, that are generally useful for passing doors, avoid security bots and tricking security bots:

• Marker - Draw a finite number of lines on the floor, Antbot can follow these marker trails.
• Box - Can be picked up and placed. Can be used as portable cover, or place on top of trails to alter Antbot patrol routes.
• Decoy - Looks just like you as far as the security bots are concerned. They are easily destroyed.
• Key - Open color coded door. Can only be used once.
• Flag - Need to be captured in some levels.
• Banana - Increase your health.
• Cyber Banana - Make monkey-bot invincible for a short length of time.
