In Computer Junkyard, players assemble hardware tiles to construct a vintage computer. The first player to have a complete, bug-free computer, which meets the specifications necessary to run their unique computer game, is the winner.

The primary mechanic of Computer Junkyard is the physical assembly of hardware tiles. Each player attaches their hardware together like puzzle pieces, connecting them up to a central motherboard tile to fit within a 9x9 chassis grid.

Players collect hardware by purchasing tiles randomly drawn from the central Junkyard, or by freely making trades with other players. Players begin with a limited amount of money, which they must manage as hardware tiles increase in price as their supplies decrease.

During their turn, players may purchase hardware, attempt to steal hardware from their opponents, or sabotage an opponent by attaching a computer bug tile to their computer.
