2005 Botball®
The Story
BotGuy is the coolest robot on the block, all the other robots want to play ball with him! But the robots are not allowed to play until their rooms are clean. All the robots need to clean up their rooms by putting the trash and recyclables into their proper receptacles and by putting BotGuy and the orange poof ball into the yard. The robots should also try and clean up any mess that falls out of BotGuy’s penthouse apartment when they knock on the door!
Game Rules and Objectives
The game starts when the lights go on. Robots have 90 seconds to score points by sorting their trash and recyclables and by getting the ball and BotGuy in the designated area. No robots are allowed to cross into the opposing team’s section of the game board during the first 35 seconds of play. After 35 seconds, the barriers are raised and robots can go anywhere.
Trash and recyclables are worth 1 point each in the dump area. Trash is worth 5 points in the trash bin and recyclables are worth 10 points in the recycle bin. Trash and recyclables are worth negative points in your yard. Poof balls in the team’s yard are worth 30 points and BotGuy is worth 50 points when placed in the team’s yard.
