Crescendo, stylized as CRESCENDO and officially known as Crescendo presented by Haas for sponsorship reasons, was the FIRST Robotics Competition game for the 2024 season. The game is themed around music and concerts as part of the overall 2023-2024 FIRST in Show season. The game's kickoff event occurred on January 6, 2024, and was streamed live on Twitch.[2]
The game is based on two game concepts that were submitted to the 2021 Game Design Challenge by Team 1678 (challenge winners) and Team 3061 (challenge finalists).[3] Gameplay mainly consists of robots scoring foam rings, called Notes, into goals on their end of the field. At the end of the match, the robots move to truss structures called Stages and climb on metal chains to earn additional points.
