Videos of 6.370 tournaments

We have recorded several of our final tournaments. They appear below.

  • This is this year's MIT Final Tournament.

  • This is the 2007 BattleCode Final Tournament. The object of the game was to destroy the enemy archons or have the most production at the end of the game.

  • Unfortunately, we don't have a video of the 2006 RoboCraft Final Tournament. The 2006 game was a "King of the Hill" game in which the object of the game was to spend more time than your opponents on the hill squares.

  • This is the 2005 Final Tournament. The object of the game was to capture the enemy flag or survive when the walls came pushing in as the game ended. 6.370 was still under the name "RoboCraft".

  • This is the 2004 Final Tournament. The object of the game was to destroy the enemy queen or have a closer unit to your enemy's queen.
