Fun math puzzles, not really programming, short – Human Resource Machine Review

I enjoyed playing this game. The basic premise is that of a puzzle game, namely to work out basic algorithms/math problems using specific input choices. This game did not get five stars for two main reasons: it claims to be an introduction to programming, but only is if you don't know what the basic idea of programming is - you won't learn any actual code or any real coding skills. Which would be fine if that weren't part of their advertising. The other issue is that it isn't very long - I expect to be able to play a game I paid for for more than a few days. One small complaint that doesn't affect the rating is that it mutes all other sounds while playing. I'd like to listen to music or podcasts while playing and this game doesn't allow that.
