RoboRally
As one of several supercomputers in a fully automated widget factory, you have it made. You are brillant. You are powerful. You are sophisticated. You are BORED. So enjoy a little fun at the factory's expense! With the other computers, you program factory robots and pit them against each other in frantic, destructive races across the factory floors.

But first you have to get your robot past obstacles like gaping pits, industrial lasers, moving conveyor belts and, of course, all the other robots!

RoboRally: Garfield's Ugly Kid
[Legend has it that Richard Garfield pitched RoboRally to Wizards, but they weren't especially interested. They asked him if he was working on anything else, and he sold them on Magic: the Gathering.] RoboRally is a reasonably fun game. Stick to the simpler boards and shorter races,...
