I am giving it as a Christmas gift and tried it once, I remember it lights up when the circuit is completed and it plays a little song

I don't have lights on mine. Not sure what you are referring to on the machine.

Yes, it does light up. However, it does not change colors. Our stays green.

Sorry I don't have an answer to your question because my boy had finished the puzzle after we got it then the finished product had been sitting in his room.

I received a cool circuits game that does not work. The seller gave me a refund, and I kept the cool circuit game. I would be happy to send you the puzzle piece from my game.

No. As far as I remember, it doesn't. It is not as sophisticated as I thought it would be. It's rather simple and not very helpful at all. Actually, I haven't used it since we received it. I would not recommend it for puzzle solving.

That's what I wondered too, if it needed to "warm up" first, or be in an extra-dark room. You may have a faulty one too like me. I had to tap on it near the bottom & turn it upside down & hold it it at an angle to get it to light up-not what you should do to make it work! Email Amazon & they'll fwd it to Scientifics & they should email you back w/phone #. I called them today & they said Fedex would pick it up next day & send me another one. So hope next one works! Good luck with yours! :)

Yes.. But its only the words that you can see. The island is hardly visible. I find that the puzzle doesnt align exactly. So you can expect words and graphics to be not be continuous.

Yes, it's supposed to light up. My sonic screwdriver lights up and makes noise just like it does in the show.

I have one and I'm pretty sure it is just a light sensor. without messing around with the electronics it only lights up if it is dark.

Unfortunately, no. But it's still a very nice curio. I have been thinking of adding a bottom light though...either one of those round battery operated ones or else my husband could wire another one in. A bit of advice, if you buy the curio and before putting it together, go buy better hardware. We had a few break and before we went any further we made a trip to the hardware store. For the few extra dollars you won't be sorry.

Eileen-Marie,I just checked ( I never noticed before - go figure) it does not light up. I guess I'm just always in the dark so it doesn't matter...

It doesn't come with instructions but by looking at it, you can see the groves to snap the pieces together. It's like building a puzzle. I would recommend keeping the box so that you can use the picture as a guide!

Mine doesn't. Just the switch plate. It only glows in the pitch darkness though. Still cute.

The ball it comes with does not light up. It's just a regular all that does nothing. The lighted balls are sold separately.

Yes, the keypad on mine does light up, just enough to be able to see the keys. Each individual key does not light up.

Actually, I got mine at our local hardware and it was just the flashlight, no box or even instructions. Which brings me to my question, anybody know how to make it strobe? I've played with everything so far and no luck.
