Here are a couple that go along with what Brian mentioned. Being a teacher, I like to create discussion based questions:

Q: How many speeds/gears are necessary for the XXXX game?

Q: How many different ways could you pick up an innertube/basketball/other game piece?

Q: Where is the most important part of the field for the robot?
