Sneak, Steal, and Expose!

VIVA NOBOTS offers an exhilarating multiplayer experience where players engage in 16-player matches, sneakily looting precious treasures while evading rival players. Disguised as NPC excavation robots within ancient ruins, players take on the role of a NOBOT—an incognito treasure hunter. The objective is to amass as much treasure as possible and climb the wanted rankings without getting caught. Blend seamlessly with the actual NPC bots, dig for treasure discreetly, and engage in a slots-like roulette mini-game to not only collect loot but also gain buffs that enhance your treasure-grabbing capabilities.

But the game isn't just about stealth and theft. Players can also use their trusty Doubt Gun to expose rivals attempting a quick escape, revealing their true identity and leading to their elimination. Successfully exposing opponents rewards the player with extra bounty and the treasure dropped by the exposed rival. However, caution is key—shooting a real NPC robot will have consequences. With real security bots patrolling the area, staying swift and stealthy is crucial to maintaining your undercover status.

To emerge victorious, players must either escape the ruins with their treasure or expose three rivals to unlock the "Victory Lap," crowning them the ultimate NOBOT winner!
