Robot Programmer: Kids Code

A coding game for kids 5 to 10, with no ads, no timers and no internet needed. Your child taps movement commands into a program, presses Run, and watches a friendly robot carry them out one step at a time across a grid.

That gap between "what I built" and "what happened" is where programming actually starts — and here it is visible, wordless and impossible to fail.

HOW IT PLAYS
• Tap forward, back, turn left or turn right to fill the program strip
• Press Run — the robot walks the program, with the current command lit up
• Wrong turn? Fix the strip and run it again. Nothing is lost, nothing is scored against you
• Wordless lessons: every new idea is shown in pictures, never explained in words

FOUR WORLDS, 34 HAND-MADE LEVELS
• World 1 — obstacles to route around, one command at a time (free)
• World 2 — keys to collect and the gates they open
• World 3 — solve it in no more than N commands
• World 4 — keys, gates and the command limit at once

Every level is machine-verified: a solver proves it is solvable and computes the shortest possible solution before the level ships. So there are no dead ends and no impossible puzzles.

TWO STARS PER LEVEL
One for finishing. One for finishing in the fewest possible commands — the reward for elegance, not for speed. There is no timer anywhere in the game.

WHY CODING THIS EARLY
Coding for kids does not start with text. It starts with putting actions in the right order, then working out why the result isn't the one you had in mind. That is all this coding game asks for — and it is the part that still helps years later, when a real language turns up.

MADE FOR PARENTS TOO
• No ads. None. No banners, no rewarded video, no cross-promotion
• Fully offline — plays the same on a plane, in the car, or with the router off
• No account, no sign-up, no email, no data about your child
• A parental gate (a short sum for an adult) guards the purchase, restore and every external link
• Anonymous crash and usage reporting can be switched off, and all local data deleted, in Settings
• Music, sound effects and haptics each have their own switch
• Seven languages, and screen-reader labels on every control

WHAT'S FREE, WHAT'S PAID
The first world — 12 full levels — is free, with all the sound, stars and coaching. One optional one-time purchase unlocks the remaining three worlds for the whole family. No subscriptions, no coins, no gems, no loot boxes.

Pre-syntax programming, for children who cannot type yet.
