’Build, Drive, Fight’ is Robocrafts’ mantra, and it does all 3 of these things rather well (although your driving and fighting may be hindered if what you’ve built is garbage!).

Building is where the most fun comes in Robocraft, with vehicles being crafted in a similar way that you’d build something out of Lego, slotting stuff together and seeing if it works, and (most importantly) how it looks.  You can build small and nimble vehicles or big cruisers, there’s a large assortment of weaponry and defensive equipment to choose from, and you can forgo wheels for propellers and take to the air.

Building is fun, but the driving and fighting is satisfying too, especially when a well aimed blow smashes up half of an opponents vehicle.  Matches are arena based destruction derbies, similar to Twisted Metal, where the last one standing is crowned the victor.  The carnage on show is wonderful and compliments the building section of the game nicely.

’Build, Drive, Smash to smithereens’ may be a more fitting mantra, but I guess ’Build, Drive, Fight’ will suffice.
