Dungeon Crawler esque game with Robots?

hi all,

Can anyone remember an Amiga game which was an RPG Dungeon Crawler esque game which featured robots as the principal characters rather than the usual wizards and barbarians?

It is driving me nuts not remembering its name....

many thanks!

I had a good look at the pics for that too and I am sure it is not it...

The graphics of the dungeon were not 3d like they are in that screenshot. It is basically Eye of the Beholder with robots or cyborgs...and possibly more futuristic in theme generally.....ie set in the future.

There is so many games for the amiga it is a bit of a nightmare trawling them.

Let me rack my limited brain cells for anything that would help...

I am sure you could upgrade the robots components give them different metals for armour

They were flesh covered like humans....or at least one was.

I am pretty sure the characters were on the right of the screen, top right with the map or dungeon view on the left.

This is probably reminiscent of a million games!!
