by Greg Lam

By the year 2534, inefficient, unreliable human players of team sports have been replaced by machines, maximizing enjoyment for all. To take advantage of the machines' capabilities, new Robosports have been invented.

The third most popular sport on planet Earth after SPACECAR racing and Clone Professional Wrestling is RoboUltimateMechaBattleLeague, where the controllers try to program their team of robots to seize the middle of the playing field in three rounds of exciting robotic combat.

To win a R.U.M.B.L., you must carefully choose among the special abilities of your robots, place them for maximum impact, anticipate your opponent's moves, and ration your team's power strategically. If you can do all this, you can rule the R.U.M.B.L.!

Number of Players: 2
Length of Game:
20-30 minutes
For Ages: 12 and up

Price: $24.95

The RUMBL board is printed on a sheet of MDF and laser cut, thanks to the amazing capabilities of Blue Panther Games. As you can see, it's very strong and durable.

The main playing board, with the two docks players use to position robots onto the board.

A game in action. The robots charge off the docks onto the game board. You select their priority, direction, and power (number of spaces) for three rounds of action. The robots who are closest to the center score more.

Creator Note:

"This game is a quick and fun. Try to outguess your opponent and use your robots to the best effect. Each game will be different with the changing allotment of robots at your disposal."
