Learning by playing

This post was inspired by Katarzyna Rojewska post on tools/games that help children learn to code. Unfortunately this post is only avaiable in Polish.

A long time ago I played the Colobot game. It was one of the games that I bought in my early days with computers. It was very different than other games. In order to play it one need to program robots to do many things e.g. collect ore, kill enemies etc.

One of course could finish almost every mission doing ever task manually, but it was not any fun at all.

Today there are many games that can improve and help in gaining new coding skills. Most of them are online, which in time of online world is obvious.
