2011 FRC Game Hint #2

I doubt any of you play video games, but there is one that came out quite recently (Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks), and parts of the game consist of you controlling 2 to 3 characters, each separated by walls, where you have to have a player do something to open up a passage for another character, and so on.

The point is that it would be completely logical and quite easy to create a game field similar to Breakaway, cut into 3 pieces, but unlike Breakaway, has walls that prevents the robots from moving through each section.

So imagine this: A game split into 3 separate "fields", each with a robot from each alliance in each field. Your robot would have to find a way to get balls over to the next side, or be able to catch the balls coming over and score points with them.

Interesting idea, huh!
