In "Robot vs Ghosts," you control a robot navigating through a haunted environment filled with ghosts. The objective is to avoid or eliminate the ghosts while collecting items to score points. The game tests your reflexes and strategic thinking as you progress through increasingly challenging levels.
Watch an demo playthrough of the game to see how it works:

- Use the arrow keys or WASD to move the robot in different directions.
- Press the spacebar along with left/right direction to shoot bullets.
- Collect coins to purchase bullets and replenish ammunition.
- Defeat minions and bosses to progress through the game.
The robot is the main character you control. It can move in all directions and has the ability to shoot bullets to eliminate ghosts. You can pick up coins from the map.
There is always one coin in the map. Once you pick up the coin, another will appear at a random position.
Bullets are fired by the robot to eliminate ghosts. There are three types of bullets that have different damage and speed. The bullets can only be shot in horizontal directions. Bullets can be purchased using coins.
The clip shows robot's ammunition by bullet colors. The bullets can only be shot in sequence that is shown in the clip (from left to right).
Portals are gateways that will continuously transport minion ghosts to the map. You need to destroy the portal to completely clear the minion ghosts.
Minions are ghost enemies that the robot encounters at stage one. They are relatively weak but will chase the robot to anywhere!
Boss is a powerful ghost enemy that appear at stage two when you cleared all minions and portals. Defeating a boss requires skill and strategy, as they can blink towards you by chance and have more health than minions.
