Imprimer Table de jeu eurobot 2010

The idea of this year's competition was simple: collect red balls (tomatoes), orange balls (oranges) and white cylinders (ears of corn) and store them in your basket (the containers on the side of the table). The robot with the heaviest basket after 90s wins.

To make things a little more interesting, the black cylinders are fake ears of corn, and cannot be moved, and the oranges are on "trees", at the top of a hill.

See the complete rules in PDF here.
