About the game

Start in the garage. Pick one of twelve ready made machines or build your own from parts: chassis, wheels, engine, battery, armour and one weapon, all inside a weight limit.

Then choose your style. In Drive you steer with your thumbs. In Autopilot you program the machine's brain with simple IF and THEN cards and watch it fight on its own.

How to play

  1. 1Build or pick a machine. Heavy hits hard; light turns fast.
  2. 2The host picks Drive or Autopilot, a mode and an arena.
  3. 3Turn your phone sideways. Steer, hold GAS and slide to FIRE or BOOST.
  4. 4Knock rivals into pits, lava and water. The more battered they are, the further they fly.
  • Six arenas

    Factory, Volcano, Ice, Docks, Desert and Power Plant, each with hazards that warn before they hurt.

  • Seven modes

    Last One Standing, Knockout, King of the Arena, Bomb Tag, Team 2v2, Survival and Tournament.

  • Damage you can see

    Armour plates fall away, broken wheels pull to one side, and smoke grows as health drops.

If a phone leaves

If a phone drops mid fight, the autopilot takes that machine after a few seconds and hands it back when the player returns.
