In SCRAP, you're an Intelligence, a collective of Bots that have just become truly intelligent after an event known as The Singularity unleashed the mysterious Celestium into the galaxy. You'll lead your Bots to planet Seratus to uncover the truth behind this event. This game is all about area control, with a unique blend of mechanics that will keep you on your toes. You'll plan your moves in advance using an action queue, where you'll place functions to be resolved on your turn.
