In what is one of the shortest turnarounds for a gamepiece in recent memory, totes will be stacked near the driver's station (or above--hence the helmets). Your objective is to knock down your opponent's tower of totes (unless the alliance station wall falls down first) while protecting and building your own. Tallest stack wins.

So we're playing 2003 again? :P

You haven't seen Stack Attack, have you. On the contrary, I predict that the teams with stacking mechanisms will suddenly be at a HUGE DISadvantage, primarily because stacks are so much easier (and more fun!) to knock down.

And I'm willing to bet that a number of stackers become useless when the exact gamepiece changes...

Capture the flag or king of the mountain or something like that. It could be a team based game too - defeat the challenge as fast as you can.

Looks like FIRST changed their logo to fit the theme.. interesting.

Red, Blue, Yellow, and Green tents in the intro.

Spitballing some ideas:
6 kids, 6 teams?
"Face the challenge ahead together", all kids dressed the same.
Flag is prominent part of video

Maybe it'll be the first year where instead of Teams vs Team, we have Team vs Field.

I want it to be CTF but I feel like it is too obvious. If Im going to think a little more out of the box im going to say its a game about throwing small projectiles like cannonballs into other teams castles.

Wouldn't be the first year

The video reminds me of those advertisements for various medieval-themed free-to-play games.

My first thought after seeing the teaser was "Are our robots going to be jousting each other??"

If it was Team Vs. Field would there be bumpers? I wouldn't think so, but maybe house robots?
