Sparks

This robot factory needs you! With the help of your loyal animal companions, mechanical marvels will soon begin rolling off your assembly line—all you need is a spark to bring those robots to life. Explore the junkyard to collect dice to build robots or upgrade your factory. Keep a close eye on your array of charming animal helpers; they are the cornerstone of your winning strategy.

In Sparks, each player runs a robot factory and takes turns being the active player. As the active player, you play one of your production tiles to take a certain number of dice from the junkyard; all other players then take one die each. All players simultaneously use their dice to complete robots or upgrade their factory.

Players can also use the spark to activate the abilities of their completed robots or use gears to recruit their animal helpers. You start the game with six helpers, each with a unique ability, and you must shape your strategy around them. The variety of helpers ensures that each game offers a different challenge. In the advanced game, players select assistants, offering more strategic options.
