Adabot Operation Game

Adabot needs your help, Doctor! It's time to operate!! It takes a steady hand to remove the game pieces!

You can build this fun, classic game using a Circuit Playground Express to react whenever your hand isn't so steady and your tweezers bump the edge of an opening. You'll build the board, and then program the Circuit Playground Express using CircuitPython or MakeCode to test the capacitive touch pads for contact.

A tip of the hat goes to Maker Camp for their inspiring project using the Makey Makey board.

Parts

To build this project you'll need the parts below, as well as a computer for programming and uploading code to the Circuit Playground Express.

Materials & Tools

In addition to the parts listed above, you'll also need:

  • Small cardboard box, such as an Adafruit shipping box
  • Metal tweezers
  • Color printer with white paper or cardstock
  • Hobby knife or scissors
  • Glue stick
  • Scotch tape
  • Small Philips screwdriver
