     Don't recall ever coming across a "Robot Odyssey II". Nor is it listed in
an index of Computist stuff (e.g. review, hint, and game deprotection
articles).

     Maybe you are thinking of Version 2.0 of Robot Odyssey I? According to a
Computist article, it added a second diskette (i.e. two more disk sides).
