Description

Robots is a classic science fiction game that's all about fast action and sudden destruction. Players take on the role of salvage corporations, competing to capture resource areas and mine resources to produce new robots. The game is set in a post-apocalyptic world where robots are used to plunder the riches of a former world, and the Sixth World War has begun. With a playtime of 120 minutes, Robots is an exciting game for 2 to 4 players that's easy to learn, even for those familiar with board games. The game mechanics are straightforward, with dice rolling and a hexagon grid adding an extra layer of strategy and fun. Players construct their own robots by combining weapons and chassis modules, and then move them out from the factory salvage ships to capture resource areas. As players mine resources to produce new robots, the game heats up, with multiple scenarios and a campaign game to keep things interesting. Designed by Mike Joslyn and William Ferguson, III, and first published in 1980, Robots is a timeless game that's sure to provide hours of entertainment for fans of science fiction and wargames. With its unique blend of strategy and action, Robots is a game that's not to be missed.
