I had somthing similar earlier in the thread:

I was also in the football themed crowd with the Montana clue, so it seemed hardly a coincidence. I highly doubt this game will be similar to that one, but I'm still betting a Dew on a green hill (with possible field goal). This also goes pretty well with the truncated pyramid theories earlier, because if you remove the back wall and finish off Ramp N'Roll's hill, it'd be a truncated pyramid (something I literally just thought of now).

My final guesses: I'm going with footballs as a game piece. The 5' robots, using the prime number meaning of the apostrophe, leads to a 3 vs. 3 game (and yeah, I'm pretty sure autonomous is back, though still at the beginning), and that the "pasta" are footballs scattered along the ground. I think passing to teammates will be a part of scoring (if only as an increase in points per ball) because of the shovel clue. And Montana's green heights has me going with the aforementioned truncated pyramid as a hill, and a possibility that there will be field-goal-esque goal.

I also feel that one part of the game has been intentionally been not mentioned in this clue.

Oh, and I still have my Huang He "theory" as a backup.
