On the following pages, you'll find a list of nineteen racing courses. The course descriptions will tell you which boards to use (each board is labeled with a number and a letter) and how to set up board elements. The courses are listed according to the following five difficulty levels.
-
Starter Course: Dizzy Highway
If you're playing for the first time, start here!
-
Beginner
Comfortable with the basic ROBO RALLY rules? Try these courses, where you'll need to interact with the board elements more than you did in Dizzy Highway.
-
Intermediate
Feel like you can take on any board element any time? Well, you can't escape them in the intermediate courses. You'll get stuck. You'll get shot. You'll chase moving checkpoints.
-
Advanced
These are for players looking for a strategic challenge. Cramped spaces mean near-constant interaction with board elements and rival robots.
-
Robots. Must. Die.
We don't know who designed these. They're just mean.
Each racing course description will also tell you the following information:
Game Length: This is the typical amount of time it'll take players who are familiar with the ROBO RALLY rules to get through the course.
A short game may take about thirty minutes; a medium game may take about one hour; and a long game may take an hour and a half or more. The actual game time will depend on the number of players.
