Kellogg's Pop-Tarts Presents Ratchet & Madame Gasket's Sweeper Zone Kellogg's Pop-Tarts Presents Ratchet & Madame Gasket's Sweeper Zone is a promotional game packaged with specially marked boxes of Pop-Tarts breakfast pastries to promote the 2005 movie Robots and its associated commercial games. Despite its name, the game disc actually contains two distinct games along with an activity.

The first game is Sweeper Zone. The player controls a robot that is tasked with darting into a busy street and recovering scrap metal one piece at a time and returning it to the salvage point.

The second game is Madame Gasket's Chop Shop. Madame Gasket drops scrap metal from above and the player must catch the scrap in a box. There are also Pop-Tarts logos that occasionally fall and function as powerups, widening the receiving box.

Additionally, there is a Bot Factory activity where the player can build a custom robot by selecting from among various heads, bodies, arms, and legs. Then, the player is free to paint the various robot parts as well as select a name for the new creation. [source:mobygames]
