Super designtes Spiel!

Das Spiel ist extrem minimalistisch von der Menüstruktur aufgebaut, sowas gefällt mir gigantisch! Start & Run. Der Schwierigkeitsgrad steigt langsam an. Es gibt andere Spiele in diesem Segment, die sich 100% wie Arbeit anfühlen. Dieses Spiel hingegen fordert und motiviert, bei einer sehr schönen, liebevollen Benutzeroberfläche und schönen Animationen. Die Aufgaben sind sehr kreativ designt - ich hätte nicht geglaubt, dass dies mit den paar wenigen Programmierbefehlen möglich sein würde. Wer geistig fit ist, wird das Spiel wohl zeitnah durch haben. Dennoch bin ich froh, dass das Spiel nicht künstlich gestreckt wurde, das wäre nervig. Ich alter Ü30 Sack werde wohl dennoch mindestens 20-30 Stunden benötigen, grad die letzten Rätsel sind [für mich] happig. Das Erfolgsgefühl, wenn man eine Etage geschafft ist, ist aber überwältigend. Programmieren lernt man mit dem Spiel aber nicht. Das Spiel ahmt eine sehr einfache Maschinensprache aus den ~50er Jahren nach. Das Spiel ist jedoch für das logische Denken sehr zu empfehlen, wenn man es vor dem Erlernen einer echten Programmiersprache durchzieht. Ich werde es daher meinem Sohnemann an das Herz legen, wenn dieser so 10 Jahre alt wird. Ich hab die Hoffnung, dass er sich so evt. für eine echte Programmiersprache begeistern kann, was ja heutzutage egal in welchem Beruf ein Must-Have ist und in der Schule immer noch vernachlässigt wird bzw. trocken, theoretisch und unkonkret ohne Ende eingepaukt wird. So sinnlos wie diese Legosteinprogrammierung in der Schule ist das Spiel jedenfalls nicht. Ich bin von dem Spiel wie gesagt sehr begeistert.

Decent education, not so much a game

Human Resource Machine is at heart a piece of educational software. It sets out to teach you the basics of programming, and it does this fairly well. Each level introduces a new concept, and you're not going anywhere until you can get your head round it and produce a piece of code that proves your understanding. As a game... well, it's not one. You can think of the levels as puzzles, but by the time you're designing complex programs and keeping an annotated list of commands for reference, any puzzle-solving feeling has faded away. It's a series of lessons and tests. There is a thin storyline running in the background, but it's negligible and there's nothing you can do to affect it. Given that the program is straightforward education, it's a shame that there's so little help or explanation offered beyond one small hint per level. Once you've amassed your vocabulary of commands and have begun trying to crack harder problems, more guidance would be welcome. There's a general philosophy of throwing you in at the deep end and hoping you figure out how to swim. Overall verdict: What it sets out to do, it does pretty well. I'm mainly disappointed because I bought it under the assumption that it was a strategy game, which it ain't. Approach it as a gamified programming course and, assuming that's what you want, you'll probably enjoy the experience.

Good logic game

It's not proper coding, let's be honest, but the appeal and thrill of assembling all your code and then watching the human get it right cannot be over-stated. My favourite part of the game was actually the babbling noises for the speech for the various the departments, subtle but funny.

Puzzle game for learning programming

The concept of the game is simple: You enter the elevator of some company, and on every new floor there is a new puzzle. For solving the puzzles, only a limited set of instructions/operators is available. So basically you learn how to program Assembler language. You will wind up creating your own »for loops« and so on. You will basically get a certain understanding on how modern, higher-level programming languages work. But never mind: You will be instructed properly, from the very basics. There is absolutely no need to know anything about computers. However, once you have mastered the game (it was up to level 40, I think, with some bonus levels), you will have developed an understanding of how computer programs work without even knowing it. The puzzles show some range in terms of difficulty; playing time of the game, of course, depends on the puzzle skills of the user, but should be two to four hours. Beating the additional task requirements will certainly require additional time; they are rather difficult. A simple small game with really neat logical puzzles and great instructions. The design is nice indeed, but not too opulent. I strongly recommend this game to anyone not shying away from logical puzzles. And, of course, to anyone interested in programming.

Wanna "Learn To Code"? Try this first!

I OWN THIS ON MOBILE. This is a legit puzzle game (programming puzzles to be precise) but it happens to be a good way to find out if you have the ability and inclination to be a computer programmer. If you or someone you know is thinking about becoming a programmer, playing this game can save you a lot of pain -if you think it's stupid or impossibly hard, cut your loses and leave. AS A GAME it's straightforward -solve increasingly difficult programming assignments (with bonus points for harder constraints) and climb the corporate ladder. The screenshots and trailers show you all there is to the game -you create a visual program then "run" it by having the little guy move boxes around blindingly following its directions. All other screens show small cutscenes when you earn a promotion -there's no real story to this game, just solving assignments sequentially, although sometimes you can take small detours or alternate paths. Judging from other reviewer's comments, this is a straight port from mobile -that's why you "write" things like variable names or comments with the mouse instead of the keyboard. What I really like about this game is it is real computer programming at a basic level. On mobile it taxed the device a bit, this shouldn't be a problem on PC. While I enjoyed it a lot I didn't finish it -the programming assignments themselves are fine, but the lack of story, even if it's just a cheesy tie-in to your current assignment, means you don't have a lot of motivation to "see it to the end". RECOMMENDED if you like logic puzzles or wanna see if you have what it takes to be a computer programmer.
