We advertise on a variety of platforms including social media and internet search providers.

This pack includes 6 copies of Spintronics Act One, 6 copies of Spintronics Act Two, and 6 copies of the Power Pack.
This kit is the complete set. Spintronics Act One and Act Two bring you the whole story of Natalia, with 149 puzzles ranging from beginner to intermediate to advanced. This set also includes the Power Pack, which gives you parts to charge your circuits with more power, along with a puzzle book including 11 additional puzzles.
Spintronics Act One: 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 Act Two: Continue Natalia's time-winding adventure and help her build more advanced spintronic circuits for the town of Little Hope. This Act Two kit begins where Act One leaves off. New parts including transistors and inductors open a vast frontier of new possibilities. The puzzles also grow more challenging, with 82 more puzzles ranging from intermediate to advanced.
Power Pack: The Power Pack gives you parts to charge your circuits with more power: an additional 6 V battery and two low-value resistors. It also includes a puzzle book with 11 additional puzzles.
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. You'll never see electronics the same way again.

Great concept to learn about electronics in a fun, creative and innovative way. My boys loved it and can't stop working out new circuits
Super jeu!
Best way to learn for tactile kids (and grown-ups)
Not worth the money
Spintronics Act One
My grandkids ages 12 and 11 absolutely love this, as do I! They were particularly gleeful when they solved the "counterclockwise" challenges, thinking "outside the loop". This is a wonderful learning tool for the basic concepts of current, resistance, and other things related to electronics. The AND and OR gate challenges related directly to computer science Boolean logic, which I taught for years! This is a great gift for children of any age, including this old man! Thanks for continuing the tradition started with Turing Tumble...I look forward to more!
I bought Spintronics Act Two for my 11 year old grandson. I had previously bought Acts One and Two and a power pack for him. He has spent many hours creating circuits with those. However, lately he felt he needed more ‘parts’ and chose Act Two. He continues to enjoy creating circuits.
I teach STEM and my students enjoy this hands-on activity. The book provides great guidance and the website is very helpful, with the simulator and solutions page. The box is well designed with keeping everything organized. The company is very responsive, ships quickly, and is so easy to work with. Great product and overall, great experience.
Notre petit-fils avait reçu le # 1 et était très heureux de recevoir la suite !
I’m really impressed with the ‘out of the box’ creativity of this product. As an electromechanical hobbyist and enthusiast, it’s surprising me with challenges. Great quality, my compliments.
