Robot Scrapyard Arena
Mission briefing
Robot Scrapyard Arena is a 3D top-down robot shooter. Salvage parts from the scrapyard, merge them into stronger ones, bolt them onto your robot, and survive 10 waves and two giant bosses. Every wave drops parts. Two identical parts merge into one a tier higher, from Mk I up to legendary Mk V and beyond. Mix 15 part types across five slots (two arms, core, head and legs) to build your robot.
Field manual
Survive every wave and defeat the two bosses. Collect the parts that enemies and crates drop, then open the Workshop and drag one part onto an identical one to merge them into a higher tier. Equip your best parts and keep fighting!

Launch orders: press Launch mission above and the game loads on this page itself — nothing downloads and no form stands between you and the first move. It is designed for a landscape (wide) screen and takes its orders from mouse, keyboard or touch, depending on the mission. It is built wide, for a landscape screen — rotate a phone sideways, or give it a tablet or monitor to stretch out on. If it offers a fullscreen control, use it — a fight this size deserves the whole screen.
Field notes for action operations
- First run is reconnaissance. Spend it learning where the danger actually spawns from instead of chasing a score — most action games announce their patterns honestly in the opening minute, then repeat them with worse manners.
- Movement is a defensive stat. A moving target at half health outlives a stationary one at full health in nearly every game on this board, so keep relocating between shots, strikes and reloads.
- Learn the exit before the entrance closes. In arena and chase games alike, the players who survive longest are the ones who noticed the second doorway while everyone else was watching the first.
