The world of fun and exciting robotic games are at your finger tips. Choose from build guides including Paper Plane and spinning top launchers, a rotating catapult, a basic ‘Goal’ robot to hit a puck, a Scissors Paper Rock machine or even design your own pinball machine.
Want to create your own game or design? Go for it. We love to see innovation and are constantly amazed with what kids minds can come up with. Your design might even make our highlight reel to help inspire the next group of participants.
