Build. Drive. Fight.

Remember when you built things out of LEGO as a child, imagining what it would be like to ride and fight with them? This is pretty much that.

Robocraft is a Freeware multiplayer vehicular combat indie game developed by FreeJam. The basic premise is simple: you construct a mobile robot out of blocks called "Cubes", which can be anything from bricks to shields, wheels to thrusters, radars to weaponry, etc. Once you're done building, you can then take it into the battlefield. There are currently six game modes you can bring your bot in :

Test Robot : Exactly What It Says on the Tin, takes you to a test area where you can check your bots abilities before bringing it to actual combat.

VS AI : Spawns you on one of the maps against AI-controlled robots to fight in a Team Deathmatch copy. You can get random item Crates in this mode.

Advertisement: Team Deathmatch : Two 5-player teams put against each other on a small map. Victory is achieved by either team scoring enough kills (number depends on the players CPU levels). Unlike some of the the Brawls, this mode does feature respawn.

Battle Arena : A game mode with respawn where two 5-player teams are put against each other. Victory is achieved by charging your Annihilator orbital weapon through capturing and maintaining mining stations before the enemy does the same with theirs. Each player's score at the end of the game decides whether their MMR (Matchmaking Rating) will increase, stay the same, or decrease.

League Arena : Almost identical to the Battle Arena, except with better rewards, double experience earning and presence of the League rating, which, much like the MMR, can increase, stay the same, or decrease, depending on the result of battle.

Advertisement: Brawl : Replacing The Pit and Elimination, players are paired up in two teams and set out to eradicate the other team, with various rules set upon the players to make things interesting.

Custom Games : Create a customized match with a user-determined map, team sizes, game modes, and various other mechanics, with directly invited participants.

The game was finally released on August 24, 2017 and is greenlit on Steam where it can be downloaded and played from. You can find the main website here .
