Game Contents
4 new two-sided game board quarters (for 92 possible board combinations), 5 Plexiglas Ricochet Robots, 1 sand clock, 21 chips, 1 disc, 1 rule booklet, all in a box approximately 12" x 9" x 2.0"

Box Description
Any number may play this game, limited only by the amount of space around the table. Each turn a player draws a chip to determine the next target and the robot that must reach it... With the computer down, the players search for the shortest moves to the target, using one or more of the robots. The player who finds the most efficient move receives the chip as a reward. When the chips have been all taken, the player with the most is the winner!

This addition is a stand-alone game, but can be used as an expansion to the original game. It adds a black robot and new boards with new features.

Games in a Box Notes
From the Rio Grande Games website...

Four robots move in a warehouse. As they have no brakes, they must rely on obstacles such as walls and other robots to to stop. Once stopped, they use nozzles to move in a direction away from that obstacle, allowing them to turn. From time to time, they receive a request to move to one of the 17 targets in the warehouse and they rely on the players to provide them with instructions to move to the targets. Each turn, a player draws a chip to determine the next target and the robot that must reach it. The players search for the shortest moves to the target, using one or more of the robots. The player who finds the shortest route receives the chip as a reward. The player who takes the most chips, is the winner! Any number may play this game, making it a great party game. 'If you love puzzles, sci-fi B movies, or just plain off-the-wall humor, this game' s for you!' - Robin H. King, Games Magazine
