So /diy/ners, Garry's mod is incredible for learning about how circuits work.

Are there any other games or programs like this?

Redstone in Minecraft. It's surprisingly simple at first, but it can do many, many complicated things.

Minecraft is for fags. And it ain't circuits, it's just boolean logic. If you want to play with boolean logic like a real man, play Dwarf Fortress.

If you want learn about circuitry, noodle around in pspice, or any other circuit sim. Hell, even better, get youself a breadboard and some components. No soldering, no harm done!

Get a breadboard or if you want something entirely virtual then try out Crocodile Clips.

Oh yes, it not only lets you make circuits but also physical machines that act on those circuits.

Garry's mod actually involves building electronics?

is there a particular server I should be looking for?

Search up WireMod, it's all logic stuff.
