Code Monsters is a battle game where kids arrange instruction blocks to program a monster's strategy.
Sequencing, loops and conditionals — the foundations of programming — are learned by building, battling and revising, not by reading explanations.

- Step-by-step lessons introduce one idea at a time
- Kids try sequencing, loops, conditionals, multiple rules and enemy-state sensing
- Watch the result, revise the strategy and try again. Iteration becomes part of the game.

■ Build a strategy, then watch your monster battle
The blocks use kid-friendly labels with icons. Once the battle starts, there are no real-time controls. Win or lose, the result comes from the strategy your child built.

What happens when "move closer and attack" is not enough?
"If the enemy is charging, guard."
"Move away, then shoot."
"If HP is low, heal."
By changing the order, loops and conditions, kids can discover their own way to win.
