Computer Junkyard is a competitive race to build a working vintage computer from scavenged hardware parts. Players assemble real-world component tiles onto their chassis, trying to complete the machine that can run their old software game.
The shared junkyard market creates pressure around scarcity, timing and interference. Players can buy, sell, trade, sabotage and repair, while software objective tiles give each player a specific target configuration to complete first.
- Hardware Tile Puzzle: Connect CPUs, RAM, storage and other parts into a working computer layout
- Volatile Junkyard Market: Buy and sell parts while watching what opponents need
- Software Objective Race: Each player builds toward a specific software requirement rather than a generic score target
