Its a game where you program microcontrollers! Basically, you are employed by a chinese company to create circuits/devices which does stuff. It starts out quite simple, making score trackers etc. Then it gets more and more complex. It's similar to TIS-100 with you having to create multiple small assembly 'programs' that communicate to make the device work as a whole. Kind of like stream programming. And then you can optimize your designs to use the least amount of power, the least amount of components etc. It's great and you should try it! :D
