Inspired by an old Ben Heck project, Andy breathes new life into a forgotten Fizz Buzz game using a Pico Pi. The challenge of driving the 4 x 14 segment displays was met using some shift registers and by multiplexing the digits. The first core runs the game and the interrupt driven buttons. Leaving the second core of the Pico Pi to drive the display.
