Droids (1991)

About this game

Players program and pilot a robot around a board trying to eliminate the other robots. Orders for movement and action take the form of tiles placed on your programing board. Only good programing and the ability to anticipate the orders of other players will enable you to be the last robot standing.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 1 to 4. It has a designed solo mode.
• Rules load. At 2.4/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
