Begin the time-winding journey with Spintronics Act One. Get started building fascinating mechanical circuits as you solve 67 fun, challenging puzzles from beginner to intermediate difficulty.

Spintronics is a new game (ages 8 to adult) from the makers of Turing Tumble where players build mechanical circuits to solve puzzles. Players feel the pull of voltage and see the flow of current as they discover electronics in a tangible and deeply intuitive way, using the first physical equivalent of electronics ever built. It’s fun, fascinating, easy-to-learn, and irresistible to play.

      Not for 8 year olds, This requires a level of abstrraction that is beyond the level of most 8 year olds. While the educational materials use excellent instructional design methodology, there does not seem to be a realistic understanding of cognitive development in children

      Encantados

      Regalo para un niño de 10 años.
      Quedó muy contento.
      También yo, de 50 años, quedé enganchada a sus desafíos.

      J’avais pris le 1er acte pour mon neveu à Noël, et je lui prends le second pour son anniversaire tellement il aime jouer avec.

      Very engaging and playful project

      I have only gotten through a quarter of the story/puzzles, and I have already stumbled upon several examples where I had no idea why the circuit worked the way it did, even though I was very good at electronic circuits in highschool.

      Great Engagement Tool for Adult Learners!

      These things are awesome! Super fun and really engaging for adult education as we introduce them to the basics of how electricity works without it feeling like a boring lesson. We used them for a team activity and everyone got into it - you know it's a hit when the classroom is both quiet as a mouse as they put the kits together and loud and chaotic as everyone shows off their end product! Trust me, this isn't just for kids - it's the perfect way to introduce concepts like induction and capacitance and is one of the best hands-on learning tools I’ve come across for a group of students who are generally scared that they have to be back in a classroom after leaving that period of their life in the rearview. Highly recommend!
