help Robocode FAQ
What do players control in Robocode?
Players control autonomous units through code rather than directly steering a character. The units then act on a simulated battlefield according to the instructions they receive.
How do Robocode battles work?
Robocode battles are driven by programmed behavior, with units navigating, targeting, and competing on a simulated battlefield. The game supports single-player puzzle scenarios as well as multiplayer competitions.
Is Robocode a conventional action game?
No, its main mechanic is writing instructions in a domain-specific language for autonomous units. The result is a programming game where strategy is expressed through code instead of manual aiming.
What is the difference between Robocode's puzzle and multiplayer modes?
Single-player scenarios ask you to solve programming challenges with your autonomous unit. Multiplayer competitions put separately programmed units against each other on the same simulated battlefield.
