Into the machine is a tactical relay race for 2 to 5 players, where your goal is to upgrade your bots and be the first team to race through the machine and onto the leaderboard. Your circle-bots race forward tagging in hex-bots that race in reverse, all while being supported and saved by your bot pit crew. Featuring a twist on worker placement, racing, and optimization puzzles, Into the Machine will have you timing your actions and seizing your moment to pull off tricky combos and leapfrogging ahead! Will you get your bots a head start into the machine? Or will you improve your pit crew to build a top tier team? The choice is all yours! With a modular track and endless possibilities, Into the Machine is never a solved puzzle. It’s a game of gears, guts, and gambits!
