About this game

This is a puzzle game about Turing Machines (AKA the modern computer's great-great-grandfather), invented by Alan Turing in 1936.
Every level of this game will give you a problem of increasing difficulty. Put your logical thinking skills to the test by programming a Turing Machine to solve the level's problem and unlock the next challenge!

Ratings and reviews

Awesome game! If you like logic puzzles, this is one of the best. A couple of suggestions. After completing the game, a counter showing the number of operations performed so players can optimize solutions and minimize either the cards used or operations performed (with a specified card limit) would be great. Ideally, showing optimal targets with the ability to save multiple solutions for each level. And a reset card button would be nice too. Thanks for the already great game!

I wanted to have a better understanding of Turing machines, so I looked for a game that would help me learn through using a Turing machine emulator to solve various problems. And that's exactly what this game does. It took me several days (off and on) to complete, and I had to get a pen and paper out to tackle the harder challenges. I didn't find any bugs, and I found the overall design simple and intuitive, with a nice retro touch.

A real gem. Short but very fun. Needs some polishments on UI to make some actions easier and less repetitive, but it's still very fun, highly recommended. The only bad thing is that it's really short, only 15 levels, which can be solved in a few hours.
