Monstroboto

"RUB A DUB DUB, WHO'S IN MY TUB?"

–- Monstroboto

Monstroboto is mental figure that resembles a massive version Dr. Caligosto Loboto. He represents an immoral part of the dentist's psyche that rampages around under the sea of Loboto's Mind, at least until Razputin restores his Moral Compass to its proper place.

Background[]

Monstroboto is the one and only boss in Psychonauts: In the Rhombus of Ruin. He is encountered in mind of Dr. Caligosto Loboto inside a large bathtub. First Mate Loboto is terrified of him, calling him the "Cursed soulless leviathan". Monstroboto will throw plastic ducks and boats at the boat crew throughout the boss fight.

Strategy[]

To defeat him, Raz must burn his shower cap using pyrokinesis. This will cause Monstroboto to retreat underwater momentarily until he returns holding a strainer above his head. Raz must shoot down the bath objects that Monstroboto throws during the fight before they hit the ship. Raz will then get an opportunity to blast the strainer off his head. Once his shower cap is revealed again, Raz must burn it again. This process repeats until Monstroboto's brain is exposed. Once Raz shoots his brain, Monstroboto loses consciousness.

Personality[]

Monstroboto is very childish and loves to play with his bath toys. First Mate Loboto describes him as having a child-like personality.

Trivia[]

  • Monstroboto represents the unhealthy version of Dr. Loboto, most likely created from the mental deterioration caused by the ice-pick lobotomy he received as a child.​​​
  • Monstroboto's name is a reference to Monstro from Disney's 1940 animated feature film Pinocchio, which translates to "monster" in Portuguese and archaic Italian. ​​​
