Robotico (2009)

Robotico is the rethemed and reworked version of Politico, Small Box Games' first released game, and more than just the name has changed. In Robotico, players are in charge of factories and are attempting to manufacture the latest and greatest robots to work in their factories. Players have two actions: Manipulate or Fabricate, and the number of actions they get for the round depends on what the other players secretly choose to do. There are a limited number of robots available, and all players need them for their factories. Differences between Robotico and Politico: The number of players has been streamlined The Manipulate action (formerly the card action) hinges on a card combination system, nearly doubling the original number of unique special actions. The game now ends when all of the current model cards have been revealed, with players earning points for the robots they Fabricated OR when a player has acquired 13 robots, with at least one of each type, whichever comes first(which eliminates the back and forth drag found in Politico). Robotico is not compatable with Politico, they are two separate games that share a common mechanic system.
