In R.E.P.O., you don’t play as a human operator—you play as a Semibot, the robot avatar created by the AI overlord known as the Taxman. The Semibots are capsule-shaped robots that players control as they locate valuable, fully physics-based objects and haul them to extraction points. This core idea is emphasized in game descriptions and lore, which frame players as Semibots performing Retrieve, Extract and Profit operations. Semibot overview on the R.E.P.O. Wiki (repogame.fandom.com) The game supports online co-op for up to six players, each taking on the Semibot role as they work together under the Taxman’s directive.
