Charged Up, centered on energy-themed challenges where two alliances, each consisting of three teams, competed to energize their communities. Teams controlled robots to collect game pieces—yellow cones and purple cubes—from human player stations and strategically place them onto a grid within their alliance's community zone. Accurately positioning these pieces on specific nodes within the grid earned varying points, with additional points awarded for forming links by completing rows of nodes. During the endgame phase, robots aimed to balance on their alliance's charging station, a tilting platform, to earn extra points. The game emphasized strategic placement, efficient resource management, and precise robot control.
