Lightbot

Master programming logic by guiding a robot to light up tiles!

What is it?

Lightbot is a puzzle game that secretly teaches you how to program! Instead of typing code, you arrange instruction blocks to guide a cute robot through 3D grids. You'll learn core computer science concepts like sequencing, procedures, and loops while trying to light up all the blue tiles.
