[edit] Story

What would you do if you were a rancher on a distant planet, using robots to herd vicious dinosaurs? What would you do if your deadly enemies, the Karosseans, invaded? What would you do if you knew that the protection of your homeland against the invaders and marauding dinosaurs was up to you alone? Now is your chance to find out, for all this is exactly what happens in this thrilling futuristic adventure!

The reader takes the role of a dinosaur rancher in the country of Thalos on a distant planet who finds themself in the middle of an attack by Thalos' mortal enemy, the militaristic Karosseans. A strange weapon is unleashed which causes all of Thalos, save the protagonist, to fall into a deep sleep and leaves the land free to be invaded. Over the course of the adventure, the reader gets the opportunity to control a variety of giant robots in his battles against dinosaurs and Karossean invaders while looking for a way to drive off the Karosseans and rouse his countrymen.
[edit] Notes

Robot Commando is one of the few entries in this series to feature multiple successful endings.

Robot Commando was also the name of a toy first manufactured by the Ideal Toy Company in 1961. It was a large, 20" tall, remote-controlled robot-like figure that hurled small toy "missiles" as if it were fighting.[1]
