Watch “REACTOR RESCUE | A Games-Based Approach to Education (in Circuitry!),” a board game review for Reactor Rescue from Tabletop Tolson on BoardGameVideo.
Description provided by Tabletop Tolson on YouTube:
In Reactor Rescue, players take on the role of engineers whose spacecraft have malfunctioned while en route to fix a failing reactor in the city of Electra. Each player must repair their own vehicle by building real electronic circuits, before returning to the city.
To make repairs, players must collect electronic component cards that represent real electronic parts such as a LED, buzzer, switch, motor, sensors etc. These parts are then used to build actual working circuits using modular, magnetic Labbox blocks.
There are three level of circuit cards, that represent specific circuit blueprints, that players need to complete by managing scarce resources.
Gameplay involves strategic card management, circuit-building, and a strategy to fix your vehicle first. Players can lock in components for future use, swap cards from the deck, and physically test whether their circuits function as required.
