Repo Bots: Double Dow

Repo Bots: Double Dow – a team platformer for two players on one device. The peculiarity of these androids is that they can fold and turn into mini-androids. In addition, the game has physics, which makes passing levels an insanely fun activity!

Okay, look, that official description? It barely scratches the surface. I stumbled onto Repo Bots: Double Dow in the arcade space last night, and I swear, I lost like three hours. My eyes are still a little blurry, but my brain is buzzing. This game… it’s something else.

At first I thought, "Alright, another co-op platformer, seen it." But then you get into it, and you realize the "folding into mini-androids" thing isn't just a gimmick. It’s the *core* of everything. You and your buddy, you’re these clunky, lovable bots, and then with a press of a button, *thwip*, you’re tiny. And the physics? Oh my god, the physics. It’s not just there for show. You’re using your weight, your momentum, your *partner's* momentum, to solve puzzles that feel impossible until suddenly, they click.

There’s this one level, right? You have to get one bot onto a high ledge, but the only way is to launch them off a seesaw. But the seesaw needs weight. So one of you goes mini, the other stays big, and you have to time your transformation *perfectly* as you both run across. And when you nail it? That little *clunk* sound when the big bot lands just right, and the mini-bot sails through the air to grab the key… it’s pure, unadulterated satisfaction. I didn't realize until about an hour in that the developers *knew* we’d be failing constantly, because the respawn is instant, and the little "whoosh" sound effect when you restart just makes you wanna go again. It’s weirdly addictive.

I usually don't enjoy physics puzzlers that lean too hard into "frustration as a feature," but Repo Bots balances it perfectly. It's challenging, yeah, but it never feels unfair. Every failure teaches you something. And the best part? It's all on one screen. No split-screen nonsense. Just you and your friend, yelling at each other, then high-fiving when you finally pull off some insane, synchronized maneuver. It reminds me of the best parts of Portal 2 co-op, but distilled into this pure, chaotic platforming joy.

I'm not sure if this was intentional, but the UI is so clean, you barely notice it. Just the bots, the level, and the pure, unadulterated physics. I caught myself trying to optimize my approach even during loading screens, just thinking about the angles. This is the kind of game that just *gets* it. It gets what makes co-op compelling. It gets what makes physics fun. And honestly, it gets what makes me want to stay up way too late playing a game. You gotta try it. Seriously.
