The team at SHUEISHA GAMES expressed their gratitude, stating, "Our entire team is sincerely grateful for your support. If you had the chance to play the prototype game VIVA NOBOTS, we would greatly appreciate it if you could share your thoughts and feedback with us." They further noted that the feedback from this user test could be crucial in moving forward toward an official release.
VIVA NOBOTS offers a thrilling multiplayer experience where players engage in 16-player matches, competing to loot precious treasures while avoiding detection by rival players. Disguised as one of the many NPC excavation robots in ancient ruins, players become NOBOTs—incognito treasure hunters. The objective is to steal as much treasure as possible to climb the wanted rankings, all while remaining undetected.
Blend seamlessly with the actual NPC bots, and dig for treasure using a slots-like roulette mini-game. Not only will you acquire loot, but you can also earn buffs that enhance your treasure-grabbing capabilities.
But beware, your rivals are on the hunt too! Use your trusty Doubt Gun to expose sneaky competitors trying to escape with their haul. Successfully exposing an opponent not only eliminates them but also rewards you with their dropped treasure and additional bounty. However, be cautious—shooting a real NPC robot will have consequences. With real security bots patrolling the area, stealth and swiftness are key to staying undercover.
To emerge victorious, players must either escape the ruins with their treasure or expose three rivals to gain the ability to perform a "Victory Lap," crowning them the ultimate NOBOT champion. So, gear up, get sneaky, and join the VIVA NOBOTS alpha test today!
