Avoid Droid
Édité par Infinite State Games, Avoid Droid est paru le 4 novembre 2014. La présentation du titre le décrit comme un jeu de collecte de fruits farfelu où le joueur doit rester à l'écart des dangers.
Sur le plan de l'accueil critique, Gamestyle a indiqué qu'il y avait plus à ce jeu que ce qu'on ne croit au premier abord, et Gaming Age a salué le fait que le titre ne fait qu'une chose mais la fait extrêmement bien, le comparant à des classiques comme Pong ou Tetris. De leur côté, des joueurs sur Metacritic décrivent l'expérience comme un jeu de collecte où l'on déplace un personnage pour éviter des dégâts tout en récupérant des objets, mais certains regrettent que le jeu soit ennuyeux et similaire à la version PS4, jugeant son seul avantage d'être portable.

Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« Much like like Pong, or Pac-Man, or Tetris, DDMR only really does one thing, but it does that one thing extraordinarily well. I mean, Don't Die, Mr. Robot is nowhere near as essential as those games…but at the same time, it's at least addictive enough that you can mention it in a not-too-distant proximity to them and not have it sound like the craziest thing ever. »
« More to this game than first meets the eye. »
« Celebrating life, in all its fleeting chaos, has rarely been as fun as this. Play, enjoy, and stick two fingers up at mortality. »
« Don't Die, Mr. Robot! is a game that is simplistic in design and execution yet difficult to master and harder to put down! If you can get past the look of this game, you will find a challenging and fun time awaits. »
« Don’t Die, Mr. Robot! doesn’t look especially impressive, but its classic gameplay is engaging enough to keep you hooked in short bursts. While it never attempts to re-invent the wheel, there’s a competent arcade experience here – and it’s that fruity core that will keep you coming back for more. »
« Don’t Die, Mr. Robot! is a quick fire arcade game that is surprisingly good fun in small bursts. As the sort of game that can be returned to over and over again, particularly after a long hiatus, it’ll be a welcome mainstay for your PS Vita library for quite some time. The classic aesthetics of the game along with some variety will remind of lost afternoons in the arcade, without gobbling up your loose change at the same time. »
Avis des Joueurs (Metacritic)
« Basically the exact same feeling for this version as the PS4 version. It's just boring. The only thing is this one is portable, so that's the only thing better about this version. »
« It's a gathering game where you have a guy and just move it around while trying to avoid incoming damage and at the same time try to get some loot. It's get very repetitive fast. »
« Got this game as a free PS+ game this month and it's a nice surprise, it has this old school arcade feeling to it. The design is pretty simple: avoid enemies and clear them out by collecting fruit. It gets increasingly difficult with the amount of enemies on the screen. There is a strategic element as you can cause chain reactions by collecting fruit and if the explosion touches other fruit they will explode as well. It is simple yet quite addicting and fun for short sessions. »
« I really like this game despite it's graphics looking like it was pulled from a Leapster game. It is basically pacifist mode in a twin stick shooter. There is no shooting and the only way to destroy enemies is to collect fruit. Really satisfying to trigger huge combos destroying the screen. Takes a little time to get use to the super sensitive controls but once you get it and once things get frantic it can be lots of fun. There is an arcade score chasing mode and an objective based adventure mode. This game should have had better aesthetics because everything about it screams cheap phone game. Wish people would play this game but they probably won't get passed the horrible screenshots and one of the worst names for a game ever. »
