In Rover Builder, you will be tasked with solving increasingly challenging missions. From retrieve and return collection missions, to traversing difficult terrain and combatting AI enemies, you'll need to make sure the Rover's you build are up to the challenge!

Rover Editor makes the building process easy with three levels of creation:

  • Central Unit - the core supplying power to your rover, if parts lose connection, or the central unit takes damage, your rover will become ineffective

  • Materials - create the structure for your build, containing wooden beams, hydraulics, springs, tracks and more

  • Parts & Components - kit out your rover to face any challenge, add wheels, weapons, tools, weights and more that can be controlled with custom keystroke programming
