Are you ready to go Into the Machine?

Do robots dream of electric sheep after a long day of manufacturing widgets and thingamabobs? Or do they sleep at all? Maybe they break off into teams and hop Into the Machine to blow off a little steam with a race for anodic glory and a chance at upgrading themselves into more skilled bots.

Into the Machine is a highly tactical race where circlebots race to one end of the Machine to tag in their hexbot teammates who race in reverse on the same track to win.

A pit crew of bots outside the machine are sent to work the terminals, moving and manipulating their teammates in the machine. Build your engine by expanding your pit crew and utilizing Junction Terminal combinations!

Penelope E. ★★★★★

We cracked this open on game night and the robot team-vs-team setup is such a refreshing twist—everyone was immediately arguing over who got to be the widget factory crew. The theme really pulls you in, and the rulebook layout made it easy to jump straight into the chaos.

Eva Z. ★★★★☆

Setup was a bit fiddly with the rulebook at first, but once we got the robot team roles straight, it was a blast. The "widgets and thingamabobs" theme actually makes the manufacturing twist more fun than I expected, and the team-vs-team mechanic kept everyone engaged for over an hour.
