Star Wars: Pit Droids, a puzzle game released in 1999 by Lucas Learning. The game was released for Macintosh and PC. The purpose of the game is to carry the title DROPS from the transport ship to (finally) Arena Esp Espa. The game contains 300 puzzle puzzles divided into eight levels. Each task you want to complete with a certain number of.
WAC-47, a pit droid piloting a ship, has a bit of an attitude, but it for good reason. It hates seeing other droids treated like property. Cal's sidekick in the Fallen Order video game.
Each pit droid can only maintain 1 part. So if you have 5 new parts and 4 pit droids (MAX, unless using a cheat) 1 part is going to get ruined (condition is brought down). So if you want to win you just want to get all 4 pit droids and choose 4 categories that you want to max out and only buy those parts. This is the key to winning.
Pit Droids must be run in Windows 95 compatibility mode on Windows XP and newer. There are eight difficulty levels ranging from easy to levels that are extremely challenging for adults. There are over 300 puzzles in this game, with only 7 playable in the shareware demo.

I think I've overcome the 'climbing' problem. We defintely need to use DxWnd and set the renderer to SDL and VSync to ON. It will slow the game down when you move the mouse, but it's also the solution! When you droid can't climb an incline, just slightly move the mouse: it'll create a little bug that immediately allows your droid to climb! You might even climb inclines that your droid normaly couldn't! :-)
