Unstoppabot was released last week on iOS and despite the fact it was developed in Australia, it’s yet to make any kind of sales dent in this country. But the Italians and the Chinese? They seem to totally love it!
Nick Kolan, one of the designers behind the game, came into the Kotaku office to give me an early look at Unstoppabot. It’s a bit like Lemmings if Lemmings was an endless runner. You don’t control the Unstoppabot, you control his environment and it’s your job to add things in that environment to help him survive!
Nick has no idea why Italians love Unstoppabot. There are no pasta references as far as he can remember, and the game doesn’t even have Italian language support. I forgot to ask if there were any pizza references in the game. Maybe that explains it.
Anyway, Unstoppabot is free to play, and I actually really enjoyed playing it. You should check it out.
