This is a great little variation on Microbit programming

This is a great little variation on the Microbit. You can easily create your own games or creatively modify existing game templates and download them to your device (there can only be one game on board at a time). My 9 year old cracked it and played with it the first weekend we had. I highly recommend this for kids and adults. The only downside I can see is that it can't (easily) be used as a regular Microbit controller - it doesn't have a radio transmitter - so it's really only meant for handheld gaming and game-making.

Pros

. Meowbit platform has its own gamification programming. The recording process is the same as Micro:bit. The interface includes a real-time simulator that allows you to run the program on the simulator without having to reload the program check until satisfied and upload it to the board for use.

Cons
