Z-Man Games has announced a re-release of the classic boardgame Ricochet Robots this fall. Designed by Alex Randolph, it was originally released in 1999 and distributed in North America by Rio Grande Games.
Ricochet Robots is a puzzle game in which players help their robots plot their trajectory across the "warehouse" board, the goal being to get to their destination as efficiently as possible. Moves can be optimized by taking advantage of the ricochet effect of the title, bouncing off walls and other robots. There is some strategy involved too, as opponent robots also serve as obstacles that stop forward motion.
While no specific release date was announced, Z-Man did say this new edition will include "every released board in one box." MSRP is set at $44.99.
