## Description

desertcart.com: ELECFREAKS microbit Retro Makecode Arcade for STEM Education, Micro:bit Joystick Programming Learning Machine Supports Remote Control and Creat Games(Without Micro:bit) : Electronics

Review: Teaches kids more than creating games - I use this in my teaching to kids in the 10 y/o range. Sometimes with the game controller sometimes with one of the robots. Versus Scratch or Makecode alone, it makes coding very real to kids. They are programming a device to do something. So far all the devices have worked, though you have to precisely follow directions. It’s not unified yet.
Review: Exactly as advertised - If you’re in the market for something like this, you already know what you’re getting. Your question is thus “did it work?” Yes - it was exactly as advertised, the price was solid, and it’s entirely functional. It was a bit smaller than expected (I was thinking it would be the size of an Xbox controller), but it’s for my 12yo so it’s fine. This is not a toy, it is a tool. If you do not have the background to teach your child how to use it, unless they’re exceptionally bright (and already have associated tools) it will not be useful. Since it is set up as a toy I’m saying it’s appropriate for 7 and below, however, this assumes a child advanced enough to program and patient enough to be interested. Do not get this as an unsolicited present.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Teaches kids more than creating games
*by D***U on January 25, 2026*

I use this in my teaching to kids in the 10 y/o range. Sometimes with the game controller sometimes with one of the robots. Versus Scratch or Makecode alone, it makes coding very real to kids.

### ⭐⭐⭐ micro:bit board is not included in this kit
*by A***N on February 1, 2026*
