Super Game Riddle

Think you’ve got a quick wit and can solve the trickiest of brain teasers? See if you can figure out the subject of this riddle, presented by our resident poet Kevin:

This one’s obscure and maybe not fair,
but this robot maid has choppy green hair.
Her attitude is sweet, her skills aren’t fake,
saving Doctor Theo with a quick “shake, shake!”

Leave your answer in the comments below! Congratulations to all of our listeners to correctly guessed the answer to the riddle from Episode 129! The correct answer was Link from The Legend of Zelda.
