Instruct a programmable tactical robot to resolve hostage situations using guns, lasers, explosives and the environment. No prior programming knowledge required. Solve each scenario multiple ways and optimize for speed, instruction count, or cost.
Overview
Instruct a robot. Resolve hostage situations. No programming experience required.
Hostage crises plague the city, and you're assigned to combat them using a programmable tactical robot. Analyze each situation, create a plan, and execute it to save the hostages.
Choose your loadout
Equip your robot with the tools you want or need:
- Guns
- Lasers
- Explosives
- Environmental interaction
You decide how to approach each situation.
Solve puzzles your way
There are no fixed solutions. Every scenario can be resolved in multiple ways using logic, creativity, or chaos—be quick and efficient, or do something silly.
Optimization challenges
Each situation includes optional optimization goals:
- Fast solutions (favored by hostages)
- Minimal instructions (good for code reviewers)
- Cheap resolutions (the budget department's favourite)
Content and difficulty
- Over 40 unique hostage situations
- More than 20 harder variations for bigger challenges
Instruct with ease
- Add instructions via dropdowns; no prior knowledge required
- Or type instructions directly if you prefer quicker coding
We can't wait to see what solutions you'll create!
