CCG writes – “Many kids are playing video games these days and their desire to make them is increasing. We have done many reviews of many books focused on teaching kids how to program in various languages and none of them had any interest in continuing on after finishing their book(s). My son enjoys making games in the block-based visual programming language, Scratch. Game Builder Garage works in a similar fashion and will teach kids the concepts of game design without having to code.”
