In Robot Roll & Write, each player builds their own robot over the course of twelve turns, adding components to the shell of the body, then connecting them with circuits in order to score points. At the start of every third turn, lay out five cards on the display in the dice slots 1-5. Each card shows a component or two different circuits; some cards also have a die depicted on them. One card at random has a special token on it. On a turn, each player rolls two six-sided dice, then uses the results of the dice to choose one or two cards and add the components or circuitry to their robot shell. A result of 6 always lets you choose any card, but if a card has a second die depicted on it then you need both that die result and a 6 (or the designated die slot 1-5).
