About the game
Crash and Burn floorboard expansion Crash and Burn is the second RoboRally expansion, features two new game boards (Blast Furnace & Machine Shop) and three new game elements. An all-new version of the Factory Floor Guide may help prolong the robots' limited existence, but it's only a matter of time before they crash and burn! Crash & Burn 5-8 player expansion The AMIGO version of RoboRally has a four player maximum, where the original Wizards of the Coast version allowed up to eight players. AMIGO published a five to eight player expansion, inconveniently named "Crash & Burn" almost identical (& vs and) to the Wizards of the Coast factory floorboard expansion. The expansion contains 4 plastic robots with backup copies and programming assistants, 4 floorboards and 8 factory floor guides, 26 option cards, 10 factory elements, 8 checkpoints, 25 damage points and 20 life points as well as a rulebook.

Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists RoboRally: Crash and Burn for ages 12 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
RoboRally: Crash and Burn has a complexity rating of 2.7 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a medium-light game.
