About This Game

Build it. Battle it. Bring back better parts.

Turn salvaged hardware into your own combat machine. Subgrid is a robot-building autobattler about tinkering, loot, and the satisfaction of watching a build come together.

Deep in the Scrap Syndicate's underground workshops, your next contender starts as spare parts. Choose its head, chassis, and weapon arms, tune its strengths, and send it into automated combat. Bring your earnings back to the bench, rethink what failed, and build something better.

Every part changes the machine

A heavier arm hits harder and throws off your balance. More armor helps you survive the next opponent. Match your arms' weight for a critical-hit bonus, and keep an eye on that oversized head. A powerful machine still needs to shoot straight.

Make the decisions. Watch the consequences.

Combat plays out automatically. Choose an Assault, Bulwark, or Tech protocol to exploit the opposing strategy, then watch your machine trade blows. When a build struggles, head back to the workshop, swap a component, and see what changes in the next fight.

Your machine grows with you

Level up your machine and carry its growth into the next fight. Permanently upgrade your equipment slots so the next piece you install benefits from the investment. Got three identical components? Combine them in the Forge for a random part of the next tier. Sell what you don't need in the parts market and fund the next improvement.

Find out how far your build can go

Take your machine into the Gauntlet and face increasingly demanding opponents. Between battles, put your builds to work in the Autonomous Lab, running automated tests and earning credits for the next workshop project.

An old terminal. A bench full of questionable hardware. One more idea you need to try.
