Our take on Autonauts vs Piratebots
The game ties automation directly to defence: farming and production fund the campaign, while programmed bot groups confront invading forces. Raids also turn the settlement itself into part of the battlefield rather than leaving it as a passive management space.
What is Autonauts vs Piratebots?
Build and automate a settlement while defending it from Piratebot attacks.
Farming and gathering natural resources provide gold for the defence campaign, while Workerbots produce tools and machinery for the growing base. Create squads of Warriors, Archers, and Knights, then use tactical combat programming during battles against Piratebots and their bosses. Raids can vandalise and pillage the settlement, so patrols, defensive walls, and armed towers form part of the defence. The campaign involves rescuing Autonauts, recovering resources, reclaiming outposts, collecting technology, and progressing through five zones. Major encounters include Long Bot Silver, Botbeard, and Botbarossa, leading to an assault on the Dread Pirate Robot’s fortress.
