About the game

What is Raising Robots?

Raising Robots is a competitive, simultaneously played, engine-building game. In Raising Robots, you are a famous inventor seeking to assemble the greatest collection of robots. Each round, you simultaneously choose and perform two or more actions: upgrade, assemble, design, fabricate, recycle. Every action will be performed with a variable amount of power to make the action better or worse. However, the most powerful actions will also help your opponents. Whoever has the most points after eight rounds wins. —description from publisher
