Ricochet Robots

Players solve spatial puzzles on a modular four-piece board populated with walls and color-coded target spaces. Four color-coded robots sit on the board; a target is drawn each round and players work out a sequence of moves that brings the matching robot to that target. Robots slide in straight lines and only stop when they hit a wall or another robot, so play centers on planning move sequences and using robots as blockers to change trajectories. Each round is a race to find the shortest solution; players compare move counts to determine the winner for that puzzle.
