The game presents itself as accessible and as a fun game or a tool for learning programming, but in reality, it's low-level programming. It's basically restricted assembly. The game defies all practical design patterns. Even as a developer, you'll hit a wall starting from at least level 10. But... after a few hours of playing, I realized I wasn't approaching it correctly. This isn't a programming simulator or a tool

User reviews
On it's own, this feels like a nice game that overstayed its welcome. You have to deal with the clunky bits more and more as it goes on and on... Compared to Human Resource Machine, it took significantly longer to 100% for a much lower feeling of satisfaction. Would recommend a friend to think twice about it, even on a sale
I gave it a good review because it's great for beginners in programming, but as a computer science student, I wouldn't recommend it, especially since tweaking the code to improve runtime will remind you of LeetCode. (I bought it out of curiosity.)
