Code Master Programming Logic Game From ThinkFun Review

I love it when I get to try products from ThinkFun because they offer a wide variety of games for all ages. The games they offer are challenging and helps improve creativity and reasoning, helps improve logical thinking and a lot more. Recently, they sent me the Code Master Game which is a programming logic game.  Here is a quick product description of the game:

The Ultimate Coding Adventure! In Code Master, your Avatar will travel to an exotic world in search of power Crystals. For all 60 levels, you’ll have to use programming logic to help your Avatar collect the Crystals and land at the Portal. Think carefully, in each level, only one specific sequence of actions will lead to success.

The game includes the following:
  • Avatar
  • Portal
  • 6 Crystals
  • 10 Maps with 60 Levels
  • 12 Guide Scrolls
  • 12 Action Tokens
  • 8 Conditional Tokens
  • Instructions with Solutions

When my daughters first saw the box, they thought it was a Minecraft game. Yes, I did see the similarities because of the block-y character in front of the box but I told them that this wasn't a Minecraft game.
The instructions were very easy to follow.

There are 60 different levels included in this game and each level becomes more challenging.

As the game progressed, crystals were also included which is needed to be picked up before reaching the portal.

The player wins once the avatar reaches the portal and if there are crystals included in the level, those should be picked up already before reaching the portal.

Similar to programming, this game is played by following a sequence. A move cannot be repeated and the commands given in each level should only be used once. I like how I am able to think how to use each move so that my avatar will reach the portal, as well as collect the crystals if there's any included in a level, in a single sequence.

As the level progresses, the challenge becomes harder which is nice because I am able to exercise my brain. This is a single player game but hubby and me take turns on each level which makes it more fun.

The Code Master Programming Logic Game is available on the ThinkFun Website or at Target.
