RoboSport is a 1991 turn-based tactics computer game. It was created by Edward Kilham and developed and published by Maxis.[2][3]
The player creates teams of robots and maneuvers them around a board to map out one "turn" of movement. The other players and AI do the same and then all movement is played out simultaneously. The robots are equipped with different weapons, including rifles, grenade launchers, and so on. The game supports multiple modes such as capture the flag and a "hostage" game.
Maxis developed this game for DOS, Macintosh and Windows 3.x. In 1992, it was converted by The Dreamers Guild and released for the Amiga.[4]
