Tokobot, from Tecmo, is a quirky platformer for the PSP and tells the story of a lost technology of mini mechanised helpers called Tokobots. Now in modern times, thousands of years after the creation of the Tokobots, the once lost technology is being excavated from the ruins of the ancients. The problem is that the Tokobots have caught the eye of treasure hunters who want to use the Tokobots’ powers to take over the world.
It is up to Bolt, the hero of the game, to stop the treasure hunters and he’ll need the help of the Tokobots if he is to succeed. As the difficulty of the game ramps up and more complex problems are encountered, extra robots will be required, as will joint actions of the Tokobots, in order to make ladders, swings and gliders. The Tokobots can also unify in Karakuri Combinations, creating a much larger, more powerful robot.
Once the story mode is complete, players will be able to access a Time Attack mode and a number of mini-games are also included.
“Tokobot is a fantastic first title for the PSP from Tecmo,” said James Ellingford, International Managing Director of Take-Two Interactive Software. “We’re delighted to continue our work with Tecmo and are confident Tokobot will find favour with the PSP’s already impressive install base.“
Tokobot is scheduled for release across Europe in March.
