Sparks

Welcome to your very own robot factory! Together with your loyal animal buddies, you build one robot after another. And when your robot is nearly finished? You give it a spark of energy, and it comes to life. In Sparks you browse the scrap shop to collect dice. With those dice you assemble robots or improve your factory. Players take turns being the active player. You pick a production tile and take a few dice from the scrap heap. The other players each take one. Then everyone gets to work at the same time: finishing robots or upgrading your factory to a higher level. Whoever handles their animals best gets the furthest. Your animal helpers are the heart of your plan. You start with six of these buddies, each with its own talent. Sparks activate your robots' abilities, while gears bring in new animals. Because the animals are different every time, each game plays out a little differently. Want more of a challenge? Then pick your helpers yourself in the advanced version. A lovely game for two, done in about fifteen minutes.
