ChipWits

A Programming Game for the original 1984 Macintosh, later ported to Commodore 64 and Apple II, with a Windows version currently in progress.

In ChipWits, players use an icon-based programming language to create robots which will explore a challenging environment. The surprising result is that children have fun learning about operators, registers, stacks, and conditional testing.
