Burncycle is a puzzling infiltration game for 1-4 players in which you take command of a team of robots in the distant future. Your goal is to take down malicious human-run corporations responsible for subjugating AI. Her team infiltrates each company's headquarters, penetrating both physical and digital operations. As you move through the rooms and advance to higher floors, you'll be rewarded with new items and abilities, but you'll also be challenged by menacing guards, deadly viruses, and even architecture designed to keep robot invaders at bay.

The key to this solo or co-op experience lies in the idea of ​​"creative storyline". Each round, all players are presented with a randomly drawn set of programming instructions that dictate the order in which their bots must perform physical, digital, and command actions. Players can choose to bypass the instructions, resulting in an incomplete round, or they can choose to ignore the instructions by paying a heavy price for action dice. However, the best players find a way to work within the burn cycle: they organize their actions in a way that benefits the team while still following directions.

Each corporate headquarters in the game uses unique neoprene layouts on a larger mat, so the game's geography can change based on mission objectives. Each CEO also has a special threat meter that unlocks new obstacles for your robots as time runs out. If you don't complete the mission fast enough, you may end up leaving bots paralyzed by energy drain or a devastating counterattack.

Your team wins the game if you complete your objectives on each floor without losing your captain or reaching the maximum threat level.
