■ Product Introduction
[Robo Rally and the world of Transformers come together]
"Robo Rally: Transformers" is a strategic racing board game that beautifully combines "Robo Rally," a masterpiece by board game master Richard Garfield, with the world of "Transformers," which continues to be loved all over the world.
Published by Renegade Game Studios, this title offers an original gaming experience that combines programming elements with the excitement of racing.
[An epic race on planet Velocitron]
The story is set on the planet Velocitron.
Players take on the role of Transformers and participate in the legendary race, the Speedia 500, held on this planet.
It's not just a race.
This is where epic battles for control of the planet take place.
Control legendary characters like Optimus Prime and Megatron as you race through dangerous race courses set on factory floors.
The core of this game is strategic thinking through programming and action selection.
A perfect mix of sci-fi, racing, and programming elements, the game constantly challenges players to think ahead and plan ahead.
To achieve glory in the midst of this chaotic race, you'll need not only speed, but also precise strategy and flexible decision-making skills.
[Innovative transformation system]
The biggest feature of this game is the unique abilities of each Transformer and the innovative "transformation" system that allows them to switch between two forms.
Players can strategically switch between robot mode and vehicle mode, the alt mode.
This transformation feature allows for a variety of actions not available in traditional racing games, such as jumping over obstacles and attacking rivals.
[A wide variety of components and over 80 different course settings]
The wide range of components is also one of its attractions.
It includes everything you need for the game, including six Transformer miniatures, four double-sided game boards, a player board, character-specific upgrade cards, an energy cube, and a checkpoint flag.
It is packed with elements that allow you to fully experience the world of Transformers.
The replayability this game offers is incredible.
With over 80 different race course configurations, every time you play you'll have a whole new challenge.
Even if you use the same game board, the strategy changes dramatically depending on the course combination, so you can enjoy the game for a long time without getting bored.
■ Gameplay flow
The objective of the game is clear.
The goal is to pass through checkpoints set up on a dangerous race course in order and reach the final checkpoint before anyone else.
While it's a simple goal, the path to achieving it is far from simple.
Each round begins with a planning phase.
Players are dealt program cards and secretly plan a series of moves for their robot.
Strategic thinking at this point will have a major impact on whether you win or lose the race.
Once everyone is ready, they reveal their cards one by one and move the robot according to the program.
There are various traps waiting for you on the factory floor.
Conveyor belts take the robot in unexpected directions, pitfalls block its path, and industrial lasers block its path.
Taking these obstacles into consideration, predicting the movements of other players and sometimes cleverly sabotaging your rivals is also an important factor in winning.
Collecting energy cubes and utilizing upgrade cards also add depth to the game.
Collect energy cubes to purchase upgrade cards to make your robot stronger.
These unique abilities can give you an advantage in the race and have the potential to completely change the course of the battle.
