Engaging 4th graders

My fourth graders have just started, but have been engaged from the moment of opening the box. In one of the first challenges, students were puzzled on how to accomplish the challenge, but were so excited once they figured it out and paid attention to the clue that was given to them.

Fantastique

Nous avons acheté l’ordinateur à billes et spintronics pour notre petit fils de 10 ans.
Jeux intelligents qui font réfléchir ; il se régale ! Et nous aussi !

Brillante, muy recomendable

Es una especie de juego educativo muy instructivo, se aprende mucho. Evidentemente es en plan facilón para que se pueda entender, pero partiendo desde nivel cero se aprender básicamente todo el tema electricidad en detalle.
Es una genial idea para, o bien introducir a los niños en este mundo de la electricidad de manera amena y correcta, o incluso adultos con nulos conocimientos aprender algo realmente útil.
Está todo muy bien explicado, en español, y mi hijo está encantadísimo.
De momento aún vamos, los dos, aprendiendo del juego "act one" pero tenemos también el "act two" y el "power pack", así que viendo la evolución del juegi yo creo que se conseguirán muy buenos conocimientos y fundamentos para saber qué es la electricidad y cómo funciona.
Para quien esté interesado en aprender electricidad, sin ánimo de títulos, es la mejor inversión. Recomendable al mil por cien.

Entertaining and well-crafted

I purchased this as a Christmas gift for my mechanical-engineer husband and teen son. My son had seen positive reviews about it on YouTube, so I thought it would be a fun way for them to spend time together. So far, my husband has been impressed with the design, story, and cleverness of the game. My son has amused himself with trying gear setups of his own design, but has not delved into the story. I think it will offer lots of hours of entertainment and education.
