Rack 'N' Roll (2007)

Emulation of the game field


The center of the field is occupied by a scoring structure called the RACK. Three levels of scoring locations, known as SPIDERS, are located within the rack. Each spider hangs from a series of chains that allows it to translate freely.

The game pieces are inflatable plastic tubes. There are 3 types of game pieces. KEEPERS are placed during autonomous period. RINGERS are placed during the teleoperated period and the black SPOILER tubes are used to negate the effects of the ringers.

The object of the game is to place the ringers and keepers into horizontal and vertical rows.
