I've see Mayan Death Robots on several events and it was always a crowd pleaser. It does several cool things to shake up the artillery game formula (ie.Worms) quite a bit! For one, the pace is way faster than Worms', with all players playing at the same time so if both players know the game, matches move on forward very pleasantly. Adding characters with specific skills does a lot to increase variety and the boss fights help in changing the pace quite dramatically (ad they're very well put together). The character skills have a lot of variety and there are some nice touches like the Tetris-inspired wall-building and the "skill-roulette" that manage to shake things up a bit by granting a random super skill to players. Of course everything is not perfect and the game can feel a bit overwhelming at first due to the quick pace and busy screen. The campaign does a good job of teaching you the basics though so I recommend starting from there to explore the main features one by one. It's...

Fun and visually entertaining game. Due to the high paced battles it's (in our case) very well suited for playing during lunch breaks. Simplified weapon choice compared to Worms, but that doesn't take away from the tactical choices you have to make to obliterate your fellow colleague.... (or end up with a "NOOOOOO!" moment). Thumbs up!
The local multiplayer is super fun to play! but when you are alone, they made sure they have plenty of story line to keep you entertained with plenty of variations on the gameplay! well done
Awesome :D Grab some friends, Belgian beers (the only true ones) and enjoy the coop mode !
Fantastic artillary game. The gameplay is pretty fast with essentially both you and your opponent taking your turns at the same time, and there is a great variety in gameplay between the different character robots (without any of them being distinctly more powerfull than the others). Lack of online multiplayer is the only thing keeping this from a no-brainer buy. Regardless, worth your money if you like artillary games like worms.
love the game! feels like worms but more science fiction and maya's =) love to kill my gf in local multiplayer :D
Bought the game for my friend and I, for 9 minutes adjusting settings and such then realized it had no online multiplayer. I will re-purchase this for both of us if it gains this. But why the hell this chose single-player over online multiplayer is beyond me.
Myan Death Robots is a ton of fun, whether you're playing solo against the computer or with a friend locally. The character/weapon variations are well balanced, and the gameplay changes during the campaign mode makes it even more interesting. I highly recommend this game to anyone that's a fan of artillery games, such as Worms.
Very nice to have some fun in a fighting/co-op couch game!
Wanted to shoot nuke at AI robot, who build wall in front of my face. 10/10, would nuke and kill own robot again. gg, AI.
