Got this for my very STEM minded almost 5 year old. He had a blast playing it with me. Levels are cleverly designed to introduce loop concept. He’s not able to do the loop levels by himself yet but he sort of got the idea already just in one play session.
Pretty cool

This game is pretty cool and all and I do recommend anybody downloading this for the kids and it’s pretty fun and I just started playing it for like 10 minutes and I’m already on level two and stage Five and it’s pretty hard on that level and I couldn’t complete it in anyway because my storage is always before and couldn’t add anything else and I didn’t really learn anything from this since it was just you do it with your own strategy so I’m just gonna give you things you can use in the coding I’m not gonna teach you could do this to do It’s like if you do this wrong figure it out yourself go tell your momBut it is pretty cool and I like using it and it is hardSo I don’t recommend This game for any five and under girls since it’s really hard I’m already almost 9 and I still can’t figure out level two stage 5
Great game, bad learning curve
Mike Apfelbeck
This game is cute, easy to learn to play and it requires some real thinking and intuition to solve levels. I want to love it.The problem with this game is the difficulty curve is more like a cliff. I think the reason is that in order to solve challenges you have to figure out the optimal solution that the designer wants you to use. There’s no room for inefficiency.Human Resource Machine is a similar game available on iOS that’s much more lenient on the player.
Fun little game

Not enough levels. A couple levels have a bit of challenge. I’m an adult and tried this game since my son was playing and it took a few days to finish.Liked it, should add more levels.
This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon.
Fixed level progression in the procedures level set: troublesome level 5 has now been replaced with a simpler level.
As always, thank you for supporting Lightbot!
