About the game
What you do in a play session
Get ready to put your engineering skills to the test with Robo Rescue: Origins! This game is the precursor to the main event, where you'll build amazing robots for a Martian expedition. Your mission is straightforward: assemble the highest-scoring robot by carefully selecting each component. Every card represents a part with its unique point value, and strategy is key to optimizing your score.
The game invites you to set up your own lab, where collecting parts is the first step. You can draw robot part cards from the main deck or pick the perfect piece from the face-up display. With your parts in hand, it's time to build! Strategically place your components in your Workshop or Storage. Once you've assembled 8 robot parts, scoring comes into play: choose your 2 best-scoring lab areas for that round to tally your points.
After six rounds of pure engineering and building, add up all your points to see who is the top engineer. Robo Rescue: Origins can be played solo, where you challenge your own limits, or competitively against friends, each with their own deck. It's a race against time and competition to build the most impressive robot and secure your spot on the Martian expedition. A fast-paced and strategic game for those who enjoy planning and seeing their creations come to life (and score points!).
