The playing board consists of a coding area for each of the two players at the sides of the screen and, in the middle, a drawing area where the green and yellow drawing robots are located. To code the drawing robots, the players will need to open a new program which they do by dragging and dropping the “new program” icon onto the coding area and then pressing it once to open it up and reveal a row of empty slots. The players can fill these slots with the code blocks of their choice. Once the players are ready to test a coding sequence, they simply need to press the “new program” icon again which will close the row of coding slots, and then drag and drop the icon onto one of the empty spaces in the coding program sequence and then press the play button. The player’s drawing robot will then execute the commands of the program.
