What you'll learn

Each idea opens with a short narrated video, about 2 minutes in all. Then you put it to work in the game.

The six levels

1. A New Kind Change it
2. A New Trick Copy and type
3. Halt! Fill the gap
4. Hello, and More Write it
5. No Name Fix it
6. Team Day Boss level

The levels go from changing one word, to writing the code on your own. The boss level changes every time you play.
