PICkit 2 is slightly difficult to built. However I think the game is actually
for the LPC Low Pin Count demo card which is bundled with the
more complete package format of PICkit 2 bundle. LPC demo board
is really easy to build by oneself. Go to Microchip's PICkit 2
page and download the schematics of the LPC demo board
and you can build it by yourself.

You do not need the PICkit 2 programmer since you have a better
programmer already.
