Welcome back to the world of DotBots, a spin on the classic creature collection genre, akin to Pokémon or Medabots. These bots were originally created as a design challenge and by the end, it became a fun way to flex my creative muscles.
Some Background
After a century of disastrous climate events, nothing but a wasteland was left behind.
Humanity was not so easily wiped out.
A few settlements congregated into domed mega cities. One such metropolis, UnderCity, is the gold star of the new world. Highly stratified and dense, the denizens all share a reliance on Dotbots, the automated workforce of the future. They are friends, protectors, guides, caretakers and almost everything in between.
Just outside city limits, lays the wastes. A scarred barren landscape inhabited by mutated horrors, rogue bots and the Dejected; a murderous cult of glass-wielding absurdists.
Ironically, poverty has only blossomed due to the pervasiveness of Dotbots but new industries have taken root. Illegal cage matches are the unofficial pastime of UnderCity.
What is DotBots: Brawl?
Turning the cage matches of UnderCity into a card game was a no-brainer. This card game is designed to be a fun and fast way into the world of DotBots. Deploy your Dotbots to gain the upper hand against your opponent. Trade, battle and play in a simple yet strategic card game.
