About Mayan Death Robots
Mayan Death Robots reinvents the artillery genre (think Worms) in a Mayan setting invaded by alien killing machines. Pick a robot from the roster and enter the arena to destroy your opponent's power core. Aim your weapon before the timer runs out, but don't be distracted by the pretty scenery: when the rockets start flying, you already need to plan your next move! Will you choose to move your robot to a better vantage point, or will you build defenses to keep your opponent from landing a killing blow?
Features:
Patience is not a virtue
You never have to wait for your next turn. Each player acts at the same time, so whenever you fire a shot, expect to have the favour returned. Think Worms, but everyone takes their turn at the same time!Choose wisely
Pick a robot with unique abilities and weapons form a roster of ten lethal killing machines. Nuke, zap, implode, incinerate and destroy the opposition with your favourite robot and fighting style!Practice organized religion
Your tribe of tiny Mayas thinks you are a god descended from heaven, so they worship you and aid you in battle. Give them something to really believe in and blow up the enemy robot and his tribe!Muscle out the competition
The actual Mayan gods don’t take your blasphemy lightly and come to crash the party. Set aside your differences and team up with your opponent to defeat massive bosses! Feel free to proceed with the face melting afterwards.Care for the environment
Use your construction gun to build defences or create a vantage point to rain death on your opponent.Survival of the fittest
Think you know what it takes to defeat your opponent? Your robot overlords have some surprises in store to keep you on your toes. Play through the campaign mode to unlock new robots and scenarios that change the way you play the game.

Very fun pretty well balanced Worms alternative for two players who have taken a couple of beers and sit in front of the TV with gamepads3 found this helpful
This game never goes on sale (the developer folded and there is no publisher), so the $7 price tag is final. Total campaign time was about 4.5 hours. You can play the campaign through with a friend, but other than the boss battles it's a long series of vs matches with various mutators. The closest comparison I can draw to this game is Worms. However, you only control one unit and turns occur simultaneously while map effects are in real time. What's very novel is that every turn you earn a tetromino, and you can spend an action to place any quantity of stockpiled tetrominos up to the maximum of 5. These tetrominos do obey gravity, but only if you cannot place them adjacent to other terrain. As a result, there is a lot of tactical variation depending on who your opponent is playing, where you can place land to block them in and force them to take damage from their own attacks, or otherwise make life difficult for them. Moving is only accomplished by jumping, so basic inconveniences like a slightly high wall can often turn the tide of a match if placed at the right time. The game has a very basic plot surrounding an interstellar television show, and the soundtrack isn't particularly…1 found this helpful
criminally underrated
This is essentially Scorched Earth, but with giant Mayan robots. You take turns flinging ammo at each other, with the difficulty of judging angle and power over tough terrain. Try to kill the little worshippers for bonus points. However, I can't seem to get this game to work anymore. It just stays at the title screen.
good gameplay, and especially good music.
a fun worms-esque game to play on the couch.
