Electronic Games Advent Calendar - Franzis Verlag GmBH

You can build 24 different electronic games, including classic retro experiences like Code Breaker, Memory, Wire Maze, Whack a Mole, and Ping Pong.

No, the Electronic Games Advent Calendar requires 3 AA batteries, which are not included and must be purchased separately.

Yes, it is designed for aspiring engineers and electronics enthusiasts. It comes with a complete instruction manual that guides you through the construction process for each game, making it accessible for those new to electronics.

Info needed: [While the product description doesn't specify an exact age, its educational nature and hands-on assembly typically appeal to ages 10 and up, with adult supervision often recommended for younger users or those new to electronics.]

The calendar is described as 'easy to assemble, with all components and relevant wiring included,' implying that no special tools beyond possibly small household items (like a small screwdriver for the battery compartment) are required.

Once you have collected all the components and built the 24 games, the parts are yours to keep. You can certainly experiment with them to create your own electronic projects beyond the calendar's designs.

Refer to the comprehensive instruction manual, which provides detailed, step-by-step guidance for each game. Reviewing the diagrams and text carefully should help clarify any confusing steps.

First, check that the 3 AA batteries are correctly installed and have sufficient charge. Then, carefully review your assembly against the instruction manual, paying close attention to wire connections, component orientation, and solder points (if applicable – the description implies plug-and-play assembly, but it's a common electronics issue). A loose connection is a frequent cause.

Re-read the step slowly, perhaps breaking it down into smaller actions. Look at any diagrams or illustrations provided. If a term is unfamiliar, try looking it up in the manual's glossary or an online resource. Sometimes taking a short break and returning with a fresh perspective can help.

Thoroughly check the advent calendar window and packaging for any small or overlooked components. If it is genuinely missing, refer to the 'Info needed: [Contact Support]' section of the manual or packaging for replacement part instructions.

This often points to a loose connection or an incorrectly placed component. Go back through the assembly steps for that specific game, meticulously checking each connection point and ensuring all components are seated firmly and correctly according to the manual's diagrams.
