Code the Robot

Logic Ages 6 to 10 Free, no account

Plan every step. It is one of the logic games on Smarties.

How it works

A maze is built fresh every time — six sizes, from four by three up to six by six — so the game cannot become a memory test. The screen says how few steps the maze can be done in, and that number is worked out rather than guessed.

When the robot hits a wall it stops, and the arrow that caused it keeps a red cross after the robot returns to the start. The cells it walked through stay lit. Both are there to answer "what went wrong?" rather than to say "wrong".

What is in it: A new maze every round, built by the game and always solvable — the child writes the whole run of moves before the robot takes a step.
