Astrofort FAQsUpdated 25 days ago

Overview

Astrofort is a ball-bouncing, brick-busting arcade game where players defend their fort and score points by deflecting incoming shots. Designed for ages 6 and up, Astrofort supports 1–4 players.

What You Need 

Robots (4 pieces) – from the Retro Arcade Collection piece set 

How to Play

Tutorial

Open Astrofort from your Board library or from Board Arcade. Select "How to Play" from the game mode selection screen for a rules overview.

Gameplay

Each player places their robot on the Board to control their paddle. Rotate your robot to move the shield around your fort, protecting it from the bouncing balls. When a ball hits your shield, it’ll turn your color. You’ll score points for any objects the ball hits while it’s your color. Highest score after 60 seconds wins! 

Each fort is protected by a set of bricks. If a ball breaks through the bricks and hits your fort, you’ll lose points and your fort will reset. Each fort destroyed also adds another ball to the playfield, so stay on your guard! 

You’ll earn bonus points for every 5 seconds your fort survives. The longer it goes without being destroyed, the more points you’ll generate. Defend your fort and bust down your opponents’ to get the top score!
