I'm just going to cop out and link to it, the creator sells it far better than I could.

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/danshapiro/robot-turtles-the-board-game-for-little-programmer

I'm picking one up for thirty dollars for my cousins kids, I can't wait to play this game even if I am the code-turtle.

It ends on Friday the twenty-seventh, I only just found out about it and I'm in love. The creator is dead-set on delivering before Christmas and it is being manufactured by a century old company, so y'know, good sign.

Seeing as the goal was 25k, and the end result was 631k.... I foresee an Amazon page in the future. If the creator is especially expedient you may be buying a late winter-whatever gift for the little ones. He works for Google, so I doubt this would have gone unnoticed by his bosses.

Oh, and here is a website where you can be put on a notification list for when he has more to sell.

Yeah, I tried to get on the notification list, but the flash plug-in just kept spinning. I guess I'll just go on my merry way and hopefully hear about it again on an app store somewhere.

One of the updates says a retailer made a large order. It'll be around, somewhere.
