EscapeBot is a programming puzzler in which the player has to input a set of commands to direct a robot's actions, using only a small number of instructions made available from a menu on the left side of the screen. The number of memory slots to program in the instructions are limited, meaning that you'll have to force the robot to repeat several instructions quite frequently in order to beat some of the tougher levels.

The score is determined by your cash reserves, and solving a puzzle usually rewards you with more of it. You can also purchase an extra profit upgrade to increase the amount of reward money given out for progressing through the sixteen levels in the game.

EscapeBot was developed using HTML5 and will run on either Firefox and Chrome, but IE users are out luck because of a compatibility issue preventing it from working on Microsoft's popular internet browser.
