Missing Robots

The Missing Robots in JumpStart Adventures 3rd Grade: Mystery Mountain consist of the twenty-five androids that Polly has preprogrammed and sent back in time.

Each of the game's twenty-five missions (one for each robot that must be rescued) begin with the user selecting one of Polly's questions from the TransQuizzer. On the TransQuizzer, Ms. Winkle poses a historical question of Polly -- and Polly gives a surrealistic and humorous answer. Polly then appears on a monitor to state which robot she has sent back in time for the question and to list the four Mission Clues that need to be found for the mission.

The robots never speak nor have any animation.
