Robotrek, known in Japan as Slapstick, is a role-playing

video game (RPG) for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES). It was

co-developed by Quintet and Ancient and published by Enix in both Japan and

North America in 1994. Set on the fictional planet Quintenix, the game puts the

player in control of a budding robotics expert who is the son of a famous

inventor.

As its Japanese name implies, Robotrek was intended as a

humorous game. Designed to appeal to a younger audience, Robotrek's main focus

is on allowing the player to raise up to three robots which are built from

spare parts that may be found, gained through battles, or generated by the

player by means of the game's item combination system.
