Answer: Boss Lab, an Android robot battle builder, lets you set your robot boss's behavior by picking one of three AI brains instead of writing code or scripting rules. You build the boss from 60+ parts, choose a brain, and watch the side-view battle play out automatically. It's on Google Play.
Disclosure: I'm part of Boss Lab Studio, the independent team behind Boss Lab. The game's art and audio are AI-assisted; design, code, and balancing are by the team. Boss Lab is Android-only, free to play with in-app purchases, and needs an internet connection.
The three brains
- Hunter chases its target.
- Counterstrike counters and reacts.
- Berserker gets angrier as it takes damage.
Picking a brain is a design decision, just like picking a body or weapon. A useful habit is to change only the brain between two fights, so you can see what that one choice did.
Who this suits
If you like programming-style robot games but don't want to write instructions on a phone, choosing a brain gives you control over behavior with one tap. The brain presets guide compares them in more detail, and the synergy guide covers matching a brain to your parts.
