There's one big change from the game's previous specifications. Chibi Robo originally featured an indirect control system, with players pointing and clicking at objects and hoping that the AI-controlled Chibi Robo character would take an interest and go explore further. That's been changed for the latest version to a direct control scheme, with players moving the robot via direct input through the analogue controller. In a sense, players have gone from a god-like role to the role of a ten centimeter house-keeping robot, and are now closer to the action.
