This is a unique new video game that let's you solve puzzles that "repair the electronic controllers of a robotic farm" in a post-apocalyptic world.
The controllers look very much like VCV Rack and the puzzles sound and look like modular patches, but it's more about getting the signals and output voltages right.
Here is an entertaining overview and game walk through with Benn Jordan:

This looks like a lot of fun.....and frustration. Perfect!

The game is available on Steam for a reduced price (€10,19 instead of €16,99) until September 27. I'll give it a try. I hope, it is not too frustrating  |

These games look interesting, but personally I would probably rather spend my time learning a new "real world" esoteric programming language, eg. Common Lisp, Forth or Scheme to get away from the day job coding. I just found this site which somehow gamifies this: www.codewars.com/ |

For me It's more about the algorithms than the programming language itself, if you suck at coming up with an elegant solution then it does not really matter what programming language you use. I used to be really good at 6502 machine language on the commodore 64 but I would not even dream about coding machine language nowadays since it's so cumbersome. Nowadays it's mostly python for me due to the batteries included approach. I could still cook up C(++) code or God forbid Java, but Python does just fine for all my programming needs, it really feels like a swiss pocket knife with unlimited different types of attachments and blades.
