Re: Robot Diversity
In my opinion, this game allows for rookie teams, less experienced teams, and less endowed teams to excel easily. This game levels the playing field a bit allowing all to play. However, I do agree that parts of it limit the amount of creativity that can go into the game.
This is why I will always love the 2003 game Raising the bar.
It allowed for these aforementioned teams to do simple things such as play defense and herd balls while at the same time presenting the 2 other very complex issues (handling a ginormous ball/ climbing steps and hanging from a 10 foot tall bar) that allowed for very creative designs.
Since the game with the tetrahedrals, there has only been 1 game piece to deal with. (Tetrahedral, ball, tube, ball, ball, ball). There have been multiple ways to use these items and various other driving challenges but none really that drove people to think like they did in Raising the Bar.
That is just my opinion. And well... I like robots
