Ratings and reviews

It starts easy, but once it gets to functions starts really making you think. It felt really rewarding to put in the commands and watch him go all on his own. But then once I got to recursions, level 6 specifically, I just couldn't figure it out. Totally stumped me. Used the 3 hints I had left which just told me what I'd already figured out, but couldn't progress from there :/ you should be able to keep playing levels and come back to a tricky one later on.

Basics in Logic Learning Skills . This seems like it can be used by ages 4 and up. The skill it is focused on is what I am looking for. That is logic used when coding programs. Like a good education app this application starts easy and is building on itself. It is also entertaining enough to keep my attention. So far. I'm enjoying using this intuitive program. Its a winner.

You aren't writing any blocks of code using programming language ( i.e. Javascript, C++, HTML) so the name is misleading. It does briefly mention a few coding concepts but none of these are covered in enough detail to be reasonably helpful. It's actually an algorithm puzzles game. You have to create the algorithm using the right oder of commands to get the bot to the portal granted you have met all requirements in order to pass through. Completion of this task takes you to the next level.
