VEX IQ’s 2025–2026 game, Mix & Match, is played on a 6’ x 8’ rectangular field. In each 60-second Teamwork Challenge match, two robots collaborate to build and stack colorful Pins and Beams, aiming to place them in Goals for maximum points.

Gameplay Objectives:
• Connecting Pieces: Robots connect Pins (vertically) and Beams (horizontally) to build Stacks.
• Stacking in Goals: Completed Stacks are moved into matching color Goals.
• Color Variety: Bonus points are awarded for Stacks that contain multiple colors.

Scoring System:
• Connected Pins: 1 point each.
• Connected Beams: 10 points each.
• 2-Color Stack Bonus: 5 points.
• 3-Color Stack Bonus: 15 points.
• Stack Placed in Matching Goal and/or Connected to a Beam: 10-point bonus.
• Stack Placed on the Standoff Goal: 10-point bonus.
• Cleared Starting Pin: 2 points each.
• Robot in Contact with Scoring Objects at Match End: 2 points per robot.

Additional Rules:
• Robot Skills Challenge: Teams also compete individually in Driving Skills Matches (driver-controlled) and Autonomous Coding Skills Matches (autonomous with limited human interaction).
• Stack Requirements: Stacks must be free-standing and fully supported to count.
• Strategic Play: Effective movement and organization of pieces are crucial to maximize color combinations and placement bonuses.
