Buen juego!!!
Te enseña solo las bases de los bucles y estructuras de programación (FOR, WHILE, IF-THEN, ELSE y anidación de estos). No es complicado aprender, las instrucciones son sencillas y el juego es entrenido.

Great Learning Game!
Bought this game for my sons 8th birthday. He's got an independent 4H project coming up this summer that will involved learning some programming using Scratch.I figured getting him started with some basic coding logic would really help him. Myself, my 11 yr old daughter and him played this and the 1st time out everyone enjoyed it.Being a software developer, I loved being able to explain the different symbols and concepts on the cards as we went.This game involves For loops, while loops, If/Else statements, and even the idea of using your ship to attack in certain order to maximize the damage your potato smashing attacks do! There are even Switch statement cards that my son was able to use multiple times and then when getting his 4th ship he suddenly realized he couldn't continue to use! So he waited until he lost a ship... and out came that switch statement again!Was a great time, and after our first game everyone was ready to play it again!

Fun learning
I bought 5 of this game to use at school, helping kids to understand coding in a simple and fun way. It took a few lessons to get the kids up to speed, but they got the hang of it pretty quickly. They are understanding conditions and loops better now.

Great learning fun
My 6 yo son enjoyed it although we had to spend a lot of time to explain it to him. “It’s A Great way to expose young kids to coding.

Another hit by ThinkFun
My husband is a programmer, so my kids love anything related to programming. This was a Christmas gift and we've already played it multiple times. We focus on saying our plans the way they would read if typed out. My oldest has already been doing some coding solo, but my youngest doesn't have much experience with it. She's catching on very quickly and loves the cute ship names! This game is also great for practicing different math concepts. (Addition, multiplication, and variables, just to name a few!)
