How It Plays

Action Points

You get a limited number of action points each turn and choose how to spend them — prioritizing is everything.

Action Queue

You plan a sequence of actions in advance, then they play out in order — think ahead or get left behind.

Cooperative Game

Everyone works together against the game itself — you win or lose as a team, so get ready to strategize together!

Dice Rolling

You roll dice to determine outcomes — there's always that thrilling moment of suspense before they land!

Die Icon Resolution

The symbols on the dice tell you exactly what happens next — each face triggers a different effect.

Grid Movement

Pieces move on a grid of squares — straightforward movement that still leaves room for deep tactical thinking.

Modular Board

The board is made of separate pieces arranged differently each game — no two setups are ever quite the same.

Scenario / Mission / Campaign Game

You play through linked missions or scenarios that build on each other — it's like an epic adventure in chapters.

About This Game

This expansion provides four new bots with a very particular set of skills to the players' team in Burncycle: a lithe acrobot, a cool getaway expert, a master procurer, and a diversionary tactician. This expansion adds 4 bot chips, 4 bot awareness tokens and 4 PVC character cards.
