Rumblebots

About this board game

Rumblebots is a deck-management card game for 2–4 players, lasting about 60 minutes, in which teams of fighting robots compete to become the last ones standing.

In a world without humans, sentient machines roam the Earth in search of energy and technological progress. The Bots were created for one purpose: fighting. Assemble your group, send it into the arena, and prepare for a showdown where only one team can survive.

The game unfolds over six rounds, each divided into a Build Phase and a Battle Phase. During the Build Phase, add new Bots to your deck and shape a strategy around the machines available to you.

• Choose Bots that work together through synergistic combinations.
• Recycle obsolete units to keep your deck effective.
• Level up to build increasingly powerful machines.
• Push your luck with an aggressive plan built around an army of simple automatons.

In the Battle Phase, one team attacks while another defends in a series of clashes. Bot decks fight in an almost automatic way, inspired by the flow of Auto Battler video games. Whoever becomes Champion is challenged by the following team, continuing the contest until the final Champion is determined.

The last Champion in the game wins the battle and receives powerful crystals. Use them to improve your Workshop and level up your Bots, giving your deck new opportunities as the game progresses. In Rumblebots, every build decision can shape the next clash, and the final team standing during the Showdown wins.
