- Brand New Multiplayer Modes and New Robot Pack DLCs Out Now! - 6 December 2019
*** UP TO 70% DISCOUNT TO CELEBRATE NEW FEATURES *** ALL FOR ONE We've added another two new multiplayer modes to Insane Robots, bringing the total to six. All For One brings a single endurance battle mode to local and friends two-player battles. This really lets you build up your strategy, prepare your hand, and perhaps set up a surprise Special Boost move. But look out! Late game turns can create unexpected changes on everyone's robots. FAST 'N FURIOUS The second new mode is Fast 'n Furious, which brings three fast-paced cash battles to local and friends two-player battles. Turns are fast in this mode, as you only have 30s to act. Also life is low - all robots start with only 5 health. If you can keep up with the pace, you can make the moves to max the cash - go for overkill, damage, chains, and cash tokens to stay ahead of your opponent. ROBOT PACKS 5 AND 6 Unbelievably, we were so b…

- Insane Robots is NUMBER ONE new Xbox One release on Metacritic - 30 July 2018

Insane Robots has just earned a Metatcritic score of 90/100 on Xbox One and become the number one (equal) rated game in New Releases, alongside NieR: Automata. It's also the 12th (equal) rated game of all time on Xbox One, in a list that contains mainly AAA titles. This feels like quite an achievement for our quirky game of hacked card battling. https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F27886209%2F1934a1cd63946e5098e60002755bbe14e0dcddcd.png

We've been listening to some of your feedback in the Steam forums and on our Discord (http://playni.ac/discord). We've been hard at work today to bring some much requested features (and a couple of fixes) to Insane Robots for a first day update. So here goes! We've: * added volume controls! Just simple volume setting for music and sound effects in both options and pause menus. * added a “fast load” mode, that fast skips loading screens if you don’t want to read the help info there; there's a new toggle button on the options and pause menus. The game will also automatically switch to fast load mode after a while (but this can be disabled in options). * added arrows to tournament complete and quick battle complete panels to subtly signal how stars are earned. * fixed the leaderboard paging and number of entries. * stopped 0 scores being entered in the leaderboard * corrected text errors i…
