Robo Arena Command

Goal of the game

In Robo Arena Command you play with your hand in front of the camera. Your mech follows your HAND around the neon arena floor. Say FIRE (or any sharp sound) to shoot at the nearest enemy bot — auto-aim does the rest. Say DASH to rocket-dash toward your hand (invincible while dashing, 2 s recharge).

Say LASER when the ⚡ bar is full for a huge sweeping beam. Make a FIST to raise an energy barrier. Destroy waves of drones, tanks and the giant boss bot!

Quick start

Robo Arena Command in one line: Drive your battle robot with your hand and command it by voice — FIRE, DASH, LASER!

• Press Play on this page — Robo Arena Command loads in a few seconds right in the browser.
• Tap Allow when the browser asks for the camera, then read the short tutorial card.
• Play your first run of Robo Arena Command slowly to learn how it reacts to your hand in front of the camera.
• After a game over, press Play again to try to beat your best.

Controls explained

• Quick reminder shown in Robo Arena Command: Hand = drive · say FIRE · DASH · LASER · fist = barrier.
• Hold one hand about an arm's length from the camera so Robo Arena Command can see your whole palm and fingers.
• Move slowly at first: Robo Arena Command follows your fingertip in real time, and smooth movements are tracked more accurately than jerky ones.
• If Robo Arena Command feels too hard at first, play a practice round to learn the timing before chasing a high score.

Scoring and levels

Every 450 points you reach a new level, and Robo Arena Command speeds up and sends more at you each time. You start with 3 lives. Your best score is saved in your browser, and signed-in players also appear on the Robo Arena Command leaderboard. Watch out for boss waves, which take several hits but pay out big points.

Power-ups

Power-up orbs appear every few seconds in Robo Arena Command. Touch or collect them to activate:

• 🛡️ Shield (10 s): blocks the next hit so a mistake does not cost a life.
• ✨ Triple (8 s): multiplies your attack or catch three ways.
• ⏳ Slow-Mo (6 s): slows the whole game down so you can line up precise moves.
• 2️⃣ Double Points (10 s): doubles every point you earn while it lasts.
• ❤️ Extra Life: adds one life (up to six).
• 🍄 Giant (8 s): makes you bigger, so hits and catches are much easier.

Characters and world

The 3D world of Robo Arena Command features craft speederAs, craft miners, aliens and satelliteDishes. Learning how each one moves is the key to reading the screen quickly.

Tips and strategy

• Aim at the nearest threat first in Robo Arena Command; letting one slip through costs more than a missed shot.
• Save your focus for the moment a Freeze or Slow-Mo starts — that is when Robo Arena Command gives you free points.
• With a Shield active, play aggressively in Robo Arena Command; the next mistake is free.
• Good, even lighting from the front makes tracking in Robo Arena Command far more reliable than a bright window behind you.
• Replay Robo Arena Command a few times: each run teaches you the patterns, and scores usually double after the first five games.

Device requirements and privacy

Robo Arena Command needs a device with a front or web camera (any recent Android phone, iPhone, laptop or Chromebook) and works best in Chrome, Edge or Safari. Allow camera access when asked; hand tracking runs entirely on your device with Google MediaPipe, and no video ever leaves it. It is free to play; free players may see a short ad between rounds (never during play), and Premium removes all ads.
