2017 STEAMworks

Game Overview

FIRST STEAMWORKS is the 2017 FIRST Robotics Competition Game. STEAMWORKS invites two adventure clubs from an era in which technology relied on steam power to prepare their airships for the ultimate long distance race. Each three-team alliance scores points and prepares to take flight by building steam pressure, gathering materials to start the rotors, and boarding robots onto their airships. The adventurer club with the highest score at the end of the match is the best prepared for the race and wins. More information can be found on the FIRST website or watch the game animation.
