Thoughts on Scoring

Sometimes you cannot make everyone happy in the Girls Like Robots, and even if you do, you will not be able to achieve the highest score. Think about the optimal placement of your tiles to make a few extremely happy rather than everyone slightly happy in Girls like Robots. Try out different combinations to see how you can generate the most happiness for a given stage.

Basic Optimal Placement Tips

Nerds: In general, they will do really good at corner of the grids, nerds love corners and corners keep them happy. In addition, when nerds are placed next to the girls, nerds will gain happiness while the girls will lose 1 happiness point.

Robot: Each robot can handle up to 3 girls tiles optimally. Robots do not like Pie.

Girls: Cannot be placed next to nerds.

Pie: Makes girls and nerds happy. Does not make Robots Happy.

Sizzling Patches: Place Cakes on them because cakes do not have happiness.

Cows: Create Milk when placed next to angry person tiles.

Swapping as Strategy

Towards the middle of the game, you will be able to swap tiles. It should note that any two Girls Like Robots tiles can be swapped, they do not have to be adjacent to each other.

How Does Love Button Work

Love button is useful to help you determine how to score higher your Girls Like Robots game. It is especially helpful for large grid maps. You can access the love button through the heart icon at the bottom right corner. This button will show red and blue edges to help you determine the scores.

Almost all scoring in Girls Like Robots is calculated in increments of 1. Negative Red edge is -1 and positive blue edge is +1.

For example, a girl next to a nerd is -1 for her and +1 for the nerd. So the overall score is even. It should be noted that if a girl in between two nerds, the overall happiness score will still be even: (Girl -1, -1)(Nerd +1)(Nerd +1). With the same thought, if you swap the girl for the nerd, you will lose two points because the nerd on the side will no longer obtain the happiness point.

It should note that special tiles will have special effects such as sitting on fire, wearing a slug, or being next to a pie.

Special Girls Like Robots Goals Notes

Falling Tile Stage: For this stage, you have to make the bottom row all happy. The easiest way to achieve this is to have a row of robots and 1 row of girls.

Ben’s Homecoming: You will have to help Ben get a Date.

June’s Bugs: Bugs will flee from the usual Girls Like Robots girl tiles. Drag the girl tile toward the bug and you will get a preview on how the bug will move. Use this technique to move the bug towards June for the points.

Milk Level: The milk is mainly used to stop the fires. They will not affect the happiness. Just worry about making enough milk to stop any fires. For the points, you get 1 point for 1 angry person next to the cow, and 1 point for the fire extinguished.
