With a box cover that is reminiscent of Minecraft, Code Master is a board game to teach programming logic.
The game from ThinkFun includes 60 levels that vary in difficulty from Beginner to Expert while the game is meant for ages 8 and up.
With ThinkFun’s Code Master, kids learn the fundamentals of computer programming logic in a fun and entertaining way. On each level, players program an avatar to harvest power crystals and reach the destination portal. The program is written using a flowchart called a Guide Scroll, which illustrates the shape of the required program. Players must think carefully because only one specific sequence of actions will lead to success. Code Master’s rules of program execution help kids understand how a real computer executes programs, building a powerful mental model of how computers operate.
How to play:
Code Master is sold exclusively at Target for $24.99.
