GRT 2023-2024

In the CRESCENDO! game, robots could choose from a variety of scoring objectives: the speaker (a shooter objective), the amp (a vertical drop objective, which amplified all points for an alliance), the stage (a climb objective, in which the robot had to lift itself off the ground), and the trapdoor (another vertical slot objective that could only be accessed through the climb objective).
