H-Bridges

The Domino Robot uses light sensors to detect tape beneath the robot, allowing you to lay out a path and have it set up dominos for you automatically! Level up your robot even further by hacking on the IR sensor from the IR Turret build, and making your Domino Robot remote controllable!

The Label Maker is a robot that can write infinitely on a roll of tape, so you can create cool labels and robotic art with the power of programming. Starting out, it has only a simple alphabet, but with the power of code you can hack it to draw custom emojis, prank your friends by changing their label, and even play games!

Frequently Asked Questions

Nope! Hack Pack robots will work right out of the box. Here’s the inside scoop... If you can put together a LEGO set, you can definitely build these robots, and we provide all the materials required.

But get this: Hack Pack can be completely leveled up by hacking the main computer controller, unlocking plenty of challenges and fun for anyone, from those new to coding to master hackers. We will teach you in our IDE (Integrated Development Environment).

CrunchLabs Hack Pack subscription is designed for teens 14+ (even adults will love it). We test every product with 3rd-party testing agencies to ensure the products comply with US and EU safety standards for teens ages 14-years and older.

Parents and guardians can gauge the appropriateness for their kids, but we have worked hard to ensure that they’re a blast for the intended age range.

We've had the Build Box Platinum Ticket since our start, and now we're so excited to also introduce you to the Platinum Diploma sweepstakes*! Each Hack Pack subscriber is entered into a drawing for the chance to win $80,000 to put towards college and a trip to CrunchLabs to hang out with Mark Rober.

*No Purchase Necessary. Ends 4/30/26. 50 U.S. & D.C., 18+. See Official Rules.

It depends! We design each Hack Pack robot to take an average 30-60 minutes for an 14+ year old.

Every person is different and build times will vary!

Our Hack Pack boxes are (mostly) designed for one user, so we recommend a subscription for each person.

Besides, how are you supposed to defend your candy stash without a your personal password-protected IR Turret?!

Yes! You've got some symptom-to-solution solves :

If all else fails, please contact customer service at help@crunchlabs.com.

Hack Pack only ships to the US, Canada and the EU (excluding Iceland) for now. Stay tuned for more countries!

    Superb

    I have had the Hack Pack subscription since the first year to entertain/ educate my grandchildren. Even though they are young for this subscription, ages 3-8, we really enjoy and learn a lot.

    We watch Mark’s videos together then do the build. They do need a bit of help but they sit thru the whole process. What is amazing is how much they retain of the science behind the builds. When their parents come to pick them up, they get demonstrations and lectures on the science. It blows me away how great their dissections are.

    Our builds are on a bookshelf and they get a lot use. The grands are very protective of their builds.

    Really fun

    At the time of writing, im on box 003 - the label maker. Every box so far has been better in every way than the last. From the quality of parts, to the building experience, to the fun of using the finished build, i havent had any negative experiences.
