Robo Rally

Robo Rally is the hilarious, high-chaos programming race where you plot robot moves, dodge factory hazards, and outmaneuver rivals to hit checkpoints first. A perfect mix of strategy and slapstick, this evergreen classic brings big laughs and big comebacks to every table.

Boot up, lock in, and floor it. Program five steps ahead, brave conveyor belts and lasers, and pivot on the fly as the board—and your opponents—shove your best-laid plans into the nearest pit.

How the Game Works

Each round, secretly queue five programming cards—advance, back up, rotate—then reveal in order. Priority numbers determine who executes first, and between each step the factory springs to life: conveyors slide you, gears spin you, pushers shove you, and lasers zap anything in their path. It’s a glorious chain reaction of “Wait—no, not there!” moments.

Your goal is to tag checkpoints in sequence and race back out alive. Smart routing, timely upgrades, and reading your opponents are key; plan precisely, but embrace the glorious chaos when the factory (and other bots) rewrite your route mid-turn.
