Robot Wants Fishy, the third game in the Robot series after Robot Wants Kitty and Robot Wants Puppy, is a 2D webgame made using Actionscript 3.0, the Flixel library, and featuring music by DrPetter and Robbe. The game was released on the Armor Games website on August 20, 2010. It is also sponsored by Armor Games. Many powerups help upgrade your kitty, and access cards and the double-jump rockets power up your robot. The goal of Robot Wants Fishy is to rescue the goldfish in the least amount of time possible. When you die there is a 10 second time penalty, however. The game also features a humorous storyline that actually relates to the game this time!

Trivia
Das Boxen has the highest amount of health in the game, with 182HP for its entire battle.
There is a multibomb item which has become notorious, since many players find it difficult to collect. A key mechanic they forget is that the snail enemies can actually destroy crystals with their bullets. However, you also need the Tri-Prism item to deflect the bullet to the crystal guarding the multibomb.
The name of the bosses are all puns:
- Dungeon S.Crab is an alternate way of pronouncing Dungeness crab, a crab found in Britain.
- The Battle Bat has 'bat' appear twice in its name.
- PAL-1000 is based off the evil HAL-1000 robot from the film "A Space Oddysey".
- The Obtuse Angler is a pun of an obtuse angle in mathematical terminology.
- Das Boxen is supposedly German for "The Boxes". However, the German used is inaccurate.
