Growbots is an RPG at its core, calling upon the same mechanics that made the genre’s classics great. It features vast customizability in types, movesets, and stats which means no two units will be identical, and there is a great deal of importance to your choices.

Growbots is going to be a new spin on the monster-collecting genre, while remaining truthful to its RPG roots, and we need YOU to join us on this journey. Active Turn-based Combat! Fight in a real time Turn-Based combat system with up to eight party members against wild monsters and trainers alike! Quick decision making is key, as both you and your opponent’s ability to fight is determined by how fast you react. Turn order is dictated by the agility-based ATB Bar, and once it’s your turn, you better be ready, your time to act is limited. Strike out with Overcharge moves! The more you fight, the more your Overcharge meter fills. Once charged, you’ll have an ultra-powerful Overcharge move at your disposal. You can use it immediately to take down your current foe, or save it for a future battle, the choice is yours! Crafting and buying items for battle! As you traverse this foreign land, you’ll come across a variety of different materials. Gather them to craft items which will aid you in battle. Anything from healing to scanners can be manufactured or bought from vendors for your use in the troubles that come your way. Scanning and Dna! In order to grow your own Growbot, you must use a crafted item called a Scanner. From the weaker Basic Scanner to the advanced Ultra Scanner, use them on wild monsters to acquire ‘Scan-Data’. Gather enough ‘Scan-Data’ and ‘Dna’, a resource dropped from defeated monsters, and you can incubate and grow your Growbot. ‘Scan-Data’ can also be used to unlock new types and to unlock moves unique to the scanned monsters. Your Growbot and You.
