They come for yugioh, and while this game is not yugioh, it&#8217;s at least made by one of its most prominent developers, and the guy who created speed duels, so I was happy to try out his new game with some friends at my locals. If I didn&#8217;t personally believe in this product, I would not have made this post, as I never want to mislead my audience. This game was genuinely fun, and I genuinely want to support the former dev in his new endeavor.<\/p>\n<p>Today I&#8217;m posting about Robot Raiders. I&#8217;m sure many of you by now have seen the interviews with a dozen or so content creators in our community about this one, and today is our turn. I was sent the first physical kit of this game to try out, so I grabbed some friends from my locals, including a local yugituber so as not to use my own channel for this. Be sure to check out his channel, he posts some good stuff from my local area.<\/p>\n<p>These players had never seen or heard of Robot Raiders before, and had backgrounds from various other TCGs.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-118445 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.ygorganization.com\/2025\/03\/archer-192x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"192\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.ygorganization.com\/2025\/03\/archer-192x300.png?wsr 192w, https:\/\/cdn.ygorganization.com\/2025\/03\/archer-654x1024.png?wsr 654w, https:\/\/cdn.ygorganization.com\/2025\/03\/archer-981x1536.png?wsr 981w, https:\/\/cdn.ygorganization.com\/2025\/03\/tOXO3m1S-archer-1308x2048.png?wsr 1308w, https:\/\/cdn.ygorganization.com\/2025\/03\/archer-150x235.png?wsr 150w, https:\/\/cdn.ygorganization.com\/2025\/03\/archer-450x704.png?wsr 450w, https:\/\/cdn.ygorganization.com\/2025\/03\/archer-1200x1878.png?wsr 1200w, https:\/\/cdn.ygorganization.com\/2025\/03\/archer-768x1202.png?wsr 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 192px) 100vw, 192px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I played the Archer, the only class I&#8217;d never played before &#8212; as I&#8217;ve actually played some digital versions of this demo before in the past, so I at least had a rudimentary understanding of what we were doing.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Robot Raiders Live Demo\" width=\"788\" height=\"443\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/hiEWdXcRCZo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-118448 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.ygorganization.com\/2025\/03\/paladin-292x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"292\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.ygorganization.com\/2025\/03\/paladin-292x300.png?wsr 292w, https:\/\/cdn.ygorganization.com\/2025\/03\/paladin-997x1024.png?wsr 997w, https:\/\/cdn.ygorganization.com\/2025\/03\/paladin-1495x1536.png?wsr 1495w, https:\/\/cdn.ygorganization.com\/2025\/03\/a7vvwW7q-paladin-1993x2048.png?wsr 1993w, https:\/\/cdn.ygorganization.com\/2025\/03\/paladin-150x154.png?wsr 150w, https:\/\/cdn.ygorganization.com\/2025\/03\/paladin-450x462.png?wsr 450w, https:\/\/cdn.ygorganization.com\/2025\/03\/paladin-1200x1233.png?wsr 1200w, https:\/\/cdn.ygorganization.com\/2025\/03\/paladin-768x789.png?wsr 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 292px) 100vw, 292px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The basic gist of the game is that there are 3 robots and 1 boss, in a four player game. The boss gets to level up into two other bosses basically making it a 3-on-3 match. You use pre built decks that you can customize throughout the three fights to make your decks better, while the boss gets to pick from various abilities to change the encounter and counter certain builds and plans. We did some interviews in the video so you can see how the people felt before and after playing the game, rather than me trying to colour your opinions in a post like this.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Robot Raiders Dev Diary #1 | Robot Raiders Overview\" width=\"788\" height=\"443\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Lr5lyV3Jz7o?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The plan seems to be future updates in the forms of new robots as singular releases, or entire raids with bosses and robots bundled together.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-118447 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.ygorganization.com\/2025\/03\/mage-192x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"192\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.ygorganization.com\/2025\/03\/mage-192x300.png?wsr 192w, https:\/\/cdn.ygorganization.com\/2025\/03\/mage-654x1024.png?wsr 654w, https:\/\/cdn.ygorganization.com\/2025\/03\/mage-981x1536.png?wsr 981w, https:\/\/cdn.ygorganization.com\/2025\/03\/otelSaoM-mage-1308x2048.png?wsr 1308w, https:\/\/cdn.ygorganization.com\/2025\/03\/mage-150x235.png?wsr 150w, https:\/\/cdn.ygorganization.com\/2025\/03\/mage-450x704.png?wsr 450w, https:\/\/cdn.ygorganization.com\/2025\/03\/mage-1200x1878.png?wsr 1200w, https:\/\/cdn.ygorganization.com\/2025\/03\/mage-768x1202.png?wsr 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 192px) 100vw, 192px\" \/><\/p>\n<h1><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/mattorigusstudios\/robot-raiders-a-1-4-player-epic-card-game-battle-experience\">You can back the kickstarter here.
