Comments on CodeGamer for Android

★★★★★ Akanksha Sharma · Aug 7, 2019

My brother got it for his birthday and loved building it together it builds your minds, its works amazing and It's so cool how you it teachs you about team works since the bots all have different abilities and could teach someone to work with others

Both my son's just received the Code Gamer kits. They loved building it. The downloaded and synced their controllers one at a time. The both had no problem syncing to their iPads. I played on the Android app. Very nice app. The kit was relatively easy to snap together for my teen. My 9 yr old did it fairly easily with me checking his work. But so far they both enjoy it.

Pretty good It's helping me to code whitch is nice. Sometimes, my controller won't sync, even when I have Bluetooth on, the blue light shows up, but it's not connected to my device, it's a recurring problem. But other than that the kit and game are pretty interesting.

Did NOT work! As soon as I got to level 1-2 I couldn't progress because the motion sensor didn't work! 👿

★☆☆☆☆ Strange Bean · May 10, 2019

Awful truly awful. first of all I wasted money on the kit. $73 for a free app and a controller that doesn't work. yeah seems about right. I bought this for my little sister who loves this type of stuff and after the app took an hour to download, and then we spent another hour trying everything to get the controller to connect before she threw it down and called it quits. The game itself is also quite bad, and it would not let me progress past about level 2- 4.

I have a degree in Game Design, have been working with computers since the late 80s, and run a game design club for kids. I had such high hopes, especially after such projects as Google Cardboard, Nintendo Labo, and a handful of Pi projects. The controller doesn't sync on my Pixel 2. The game play is extremely basic, but that's not the point of the game, so I can overlook that. The graphics are about in line with the game play, and again I'm trying to learn code not play a triple A game, so no biggie there. I am not sure about anything else because THE CONTROLLER WON'T CONNECT! So, I can't get past the ice (level 1.2), I can only assume the rest of the game is as broke as the main piece. Thank God Toys R Us was going out of business, and I got this really cheap.

Description by Franckh-Kosmos Verlags GmbH & Co. KG Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.

The CodeGamer app is part of the CodeGamer experimental kit. It is only in combination with the gamepad from the experimental kit that all app functions can be used. Once the connection has been established between the gamepad and the app, all levels will be unlocked automatically.

Journey yourself through 15 exciting levels, and learn the Arduino programming language along the way. Transfer your reality to the digital world and discover the innovative controls included in CodeGamer!

Transform your game character into one of the four sensor bots in order to eliminate obstacles. To do so, just plug a sensor bot into the gamepad and activate its special powers.

“Kelvin“: melts ice cubes as soon as you warm the temperature sensor with your hand
“Decibel“: clears the path each time you treat the audio sensor with sounds
“Lumen“: shows you hidden things whenever you illuminate your light sensor
“Newton“: boxes all obstacles out of the way as soons as you shake your motion sensor

Level editor: create your own levels and share them with other players

Learn the Arduino programming language level by level while playing the game!
- Solve the Arduino puzzles – which will become more and more difficult – to get ahead in the game.
- Find out which codes will make your audio module howl, or the LEDs on your gamepad flash.
- Discover how your gamepad works and how you can program it by yourself.
