Malfunction Junction

It's fighting; it's robots; it's fighting robots! Two-to-four "fighty machines" square off in the arena of mechanical panic, the Malfunction Junction. It's time to destroy or despair! 

2-4 players, local multiplayer free-for-all. Great for fans of Battlebots. 

Created for the 2024 Alberta Game Jam, based on the theme "out of order."
