Description
Programming is the new literacy, and you better start early! Kidbot introduces kids to programming through a fun puzzle game.
A room. Toys all over. A robot under your command. Few commands, endless possibilities. Move around. Gather the toys. Get to the basket.
Kidbot uses a unique programming model, both powerful and intuitive. Instructions, conditions and jumps build on a familiar analogy with jigsaw puzzles, where the form of the piece indicates where it can fit.
KidBot lets kids and even teenagers gain understanding of the basic concepts behind coding and robot building:
INSTRUCTION SEQUENCING
IDENTIFYING COMMON PATTERNS AS PROCEDURES
CONDITIONAL EXECUTION
LOOPS
Safe for kids
NO ADS
NO NETWORK CONNECTION REQUIRED
NO ACCOUNTS
NO SOCIAL FEATURES
The programming aspect (language) of the game is inspired by the fundamental ARM architecture. This means that the child learns how computers and programming work on a very low level, how basic loops and conditional execution are built by basic blocks.
The game has a very smooth learning curve, guiding the child in with many tutorials and tips. While the tips are only in English, the game can be played without the child being able to read yet, because of the very interactive tutorials that show the kid what to do action by action.
KidBot Start features 12 levels, which cover sequencing and subprograms.
KidBot Full features 48 levels and adds condition operators as well as jumps and recursion.
